diabric 0.1

# Introduction

Diabric is a python package containing utilities for use in Fabric fabfiles.
These tasks, functions, and classes are useful for:

- working with Amazon EC2
- configuring machines
- installing, configuring, and starting services, servers, and daemons, like
nginx and supervisord.
- deploying python wsgi web applications.
- uploading and formatting files
- creating python virtualenv virtual environments
- installing packages into virtualenvs
- configuring fabfiles


This package is still very much _alpha_ and exists to reduce code duplication
across a number of fabfiles I have for different projects.

# Requirements

- Written with Python 2.7
(http://python.org/download/releases/2.7.3/) in mind.
- Packaged with distutils2 (http://packages.python.org/Distutils2/)
- Fabric (http://docs.fabfile.org/) for creating fabfile tasks, working with
remote hosts, ...
- Boto (https://github.com/boto/boto) for interacting with EC2.
