Thanks to maintainers working on projects like Invoke, you can use Tidelift to give your teams access to a continuously curated stream of validated data about vetted components they need to make intelligent decisions, faster.
You can feel confident bringing Invoke into your application’s dependency tree because the maintainers of Invoke are paid by Tidelift to ensure their open source projects follow standardized secure software development practices.
Invoke is Python task execution library. It draws inspiration from various sources to arrive at a powerful and clean feature set. Like Ruby's Rake tool and Invoke's own predecessor Fabric 1.x, it provides a clean, high level API for running shell commands and defining/organizing task functions from a tasks.py
file.
Where Fabric 1.x considered the command-line approach the default mode of use, Invoke (and tools built on it) are equally at home embedded in your own Python code or a REPL.
Invoke is available via the PyPI package manager.
Within days of using the Tidelift application, the Distributive team found a potential vulnerability that npm-audit hadn’t, and quickly and safely fixed those issues with Tidelift’s CLI tool.
