Tools for writing awesome Fabric files
Project description
About
fabtools includes useful functions to help you write your Fabric files.
fabtools makes it easier to manage system users, packages, databases, etc.
fabtools includes a number of low-level actions, as well as a higher level interface called fabtools.require.
Using fabtools.require allows you to use a more declarative style, similar to Chef or Puppet.
