Makistrano

Makistrano is a kind of bash implementation of Capistrano.

Makistrano is a utility and framework for executing commands on multiple remote machines, via SSH. It uses a simple DSL that allows you to define tasks, which may be applied to machines in certain roles.

Getting Started

Creating Makifile

role_development() {
  nodes() {
    echo 192.0.2.1{0..9}
  }
}

role_production() {
  nodes() {
    curl http://example.com/hosts/production
  }
}

task_hostname() {
  local host=${1}; shift

  # local
  hostname
  # remote
  ssh ${host} hostname
}

namespace_iptables() {
  task_start() {
    local host=${1}; shift
    ssh ${host} /etc/init.d/iptables start
  }

  task_stop() {
    local host=${1}; shift
    ssh ${host} /etc/init.d/iptables stop
  }

  task_restart() {
    local host=${1}; shift
    ssh ${host} /etc/init.d/iptables restart
  }

  task_status() {
    local host=${1}; shift
    ssh ${host} /etc/init.d/iptables status
  }
}
