Basic example
The most basic :code:fabfile.py
you can use with the Fabricio may look something like this:
.. code:: python
from fabricio import docker, tasks
app = tasks.DockerTasks(
service=docker.Container(
name='app',
image='nginx:stable-alpine',
options={
'publish': '80:80',
},
),
hosts=['user@example.com'],
)
Type :code:fab --list
in your terminal to see available Fabric commands:
::
Available commands:
app.deploy deploy service (prepare -> push -> backup -> pull -> migrate -> update)
Finally, to deploy such configuration you simply have to execute following bash command:
.. code:: bash
fab app.deploy

Requirements
Local
- Python 2.7, 3.4*, 3.5*, 3.6*, 3.7*, 3.8*
- (optional) Docker 1.9+ for building Docker images
* Fabric3
_ is used for compatibility with Python 3.x
.. _Fabric3: https://github.com/mathiasertl/fabric/
Remote
- sshd
- Docker 1.9+
- Docker 1.12+ for using Docker services
Install
.. code:: bash
pip install fabricio
Note for macOS users
Because of Python 2 on macOS marked as system component you can't upgrade its modules which are trying to be upgraded during the Fabricio install (e.g. six
and setuptools
). Instead, you can try to install last version of Python 2 using Homebrew
_:
.. code:: bash
brew install python2
and then:
.. code:: bash
pip2 install fabricio
.. _Homebrew: https://brew.sh
Contribute
All proposals and improvements are welcomed through a pull request
_ or issue_. Just make sure all tests are running fine.
.. _pull request: https://github.com/renskiy/fabricio/pulls
.. _issue: https://github.com/renskiy/fabricio/issues
Install test dependencies
.. code:: bash
pip install .[test]
Running tests
.. code:: bash
python -m unittest2 discover tests --verbose
Roles and infrastructures
You can define as many roles and infrastructures as you need. The following example shows 'production' and 'test' configurations for two-roles deploy configuration:
.. code:: python
from fabric import colors, api as fab
from fabricio import docker, tasks, infrastructure
@infrastructure
def testing():
fab.env.roledefs.update(
api=['user@testing.example.com'],
web=['user@testing.example.com'],
)
@infrastructure(color=colors.red)
def production():
fab.env.roledefs.update(
api=['user@api1.example.com', 'user@api2.example.com'],
web=['user@web.example.com'],
)
web = tasks.DockerTasks(
service=docker.Container(
name='web',
image='registry.example.com/web:latest',
options={
'publish': ['80:80', '443:443'],
'volume': '/media:/media',
},
),
roles=['web'],
)
api = tasks.DockerTasks(
service=docker.Container(
name='api',
image='registry.example.com/api:latest',
options={
'publish': '80:80',
},
),
roles=['api'],
)
Here is the list of available commands:
::
Available commands:
production select production infrastructure, 'production.confirm' skips confirmation dialog
testing select testing infrastructure, 'testing.confirm' skips confirmation dialog
api.deploy deploy service (prepare -> push -> backup -> pull -> migrate -> update)
web.deploy deploy service (prepare -> push -> backup -> pull -> migrate -> update)
'production' and 'testing' are available infrastructures here. To deploy to a particular infrastructure just provide it before any other Fabric command(s). For example:
.. code:: bash
fab testing api.deploy web.deploy
See Infrastructures and roles
_ example for more details.
.. _Infrastructures and roles: https://github.com/renskiy/fabricio/blob/master/examples/roles
Tags
Almost every Fabricio command takes optional argument 'tag' which means Docker image tag to use when deploying container or service. For instance, if you want to deploy specific version of your application you can do it as following:
.. code:: bash
fab app.deploy:release-42
By default, value for tag is taken from Container/Service Image.
Also it is possible to completely (and partially) replace registry/account/name/tag/digest of image to deploy:
.. code:: bash
fab app.deploy:registry.example.com/registry-account/app-image:release-42
fab app.deploy:nginx@sha256:36b0181554913b471ae33546a9c19cc80e97f44ce5e7234995e307f14da57268
Rollback
To return container or service to a previous state execute this command:
.. code:: bash
fab app.rollback
Idempotency
Fabricio always tries to skip unnecessary container/service update. However, update can be forced by adding force=yes
parameter:
.. code:: bash
fab app.deploy:force=yes
Private Docker registry
It is often when production infrastructure has limited access to the Internet or your security policy does not allow using of public Docker image registries. In such case Fabricio offers ability to use private Docker registry which can be used also as an intermediate registry for the selected infrastructure. To use this option you have to have local Docker registry running within your LAN and also Docker client on your PC. If you have Docker installed you can run up Docker registry locally by executing following command:
.. code:: bash
docker run --name registry --publish 5000:5000 --detach registry:2
When your local Docker registry is up and run you can provide custom registry
which will be used as an intermediate Docker registry accessed via reverse SSH tunnel:
.. code:: python
from fabricio import docker, tasks
app = tasks.DockerTasks(
service=docker.Container(
name='app',
image='nginx:stable-alpine',
options={
'publish': '80:80',
},
),
registry='localhost:5000',
ssh_tunnel='5000:5000',
hosts=['user@example.com'],
)
See Hello World
_ example for more details.
.. _Hello World: https://github.com/renskiy/fabricio/tree/master/examples/hello_world/#ssh-tunneling
Building Docker images
Using Fabricio you can also build Docker images from local sources and deploy them to your servers. This example shows how this can be set up:
.. code:: python
from fabricio import docker, tasks
app = tasks.ImageBuildDockerTasks(
service=docker.Container(
name='app',
image='registry.example.com/registry-account/app-image:latest-release',
),
hosts=['user@example.com'],
build_path='.',
)
By executing command app.deploy
Fabricio will try to build image using Dockerfile
from the folder provided by build_path
parameter. After that image will be pushed to the registry (registry.example.com in the example above). And deploy itself will start on the last step.
See Building Docker images
_ example for more details.
.. _Building Docker images: https://github.com/renskiy/fabricio/blob/master/examples/build_image
Docker services
Fabricio can deploy Docker services:
.. code:: python
from fabricio import docker, tasks
service = tasks.DockerTasks(
service=docker.Service(
name='my-service',
image='nginx:stable',
options={
'publish': '8080:80',
'replicas': 3,
},
),
hosts=['user@manager'],
)
See Docker services
_ example for more details.
.. _Docker services: https://github.com/renskiy/fabricio/blob/master/examples/service/swarm/
Docker stacks
Docker stacks are also supported (available since Docker 1.13):
.. code:: python
from fabricio import docker, tasks
stack = tasks.DockerTasks(
service=docker.Stack(
name='my-docker-stack',
options={
'compose-file': 'my-docker-compose.yml',
},
),
hosts=['user@manager'],
)
See Docker stacks
_ example for more details.
.. _Docker stacks: https://github.com/renskiy/fabricio/blob/master/examples/service/stack/
Kubernetes configuration
Kubernetes configuration can be deployed using following settings:
.. code:: python
from fabricio import kubernetes, tasks
k8s = tasks.DockerTasks(
service=kubernetes.Configuration(
name='my-k8s-configuration',
options={
'filename': 'configuration.yml',
},
),
hosts=['user@manager'],
)
See Kubernetes configuration
_ example for more details.
