A simplistic remote command launcher over SSH conections
The latest stable version is published in rubygems.
gem install remote_executor
At the moment the gem have a strong dependency of your local SSH configuration, commonly located at ${HOME}/.ssh/config, this is only a very simple mechanism for keep safe your private data, but this need a ugly configuration with a fake user name in the connection process. I provide a basic SSH config if your aren´t familiar with this configuration stuff
* config = Valid YAML configuration file * log = File for the log * commands = A list of commands separated by ';' * threaded = [true, false]: Execute the command in batch mode (false) or in parallel (true) in a server of a system

- :name: 'myFarm1'
:environment: 'development'
:user: 'admin'
:hosts:
- 'myHost1'
- 'myHost2'
- 'myHost3'
- 'myHost4'
- :name: 'myFarm2'
:environment: 'production'
:user: 'admin'
:hosts:
- 'myHost1'
- 'myHost2'
- 'myHost3'
- 'myHost4'
you need this minimal SSH configuration (${HOME}/.ssh/config) for the example
Host myHost1 HostName myhost1.example.com Host myHost2 HostName myhost2.example.com Host myHost3 HostName myhost3.example.com Host myHost4 HostName myhost4.example.com *.example.com User admin
with this line:
remote_executor --config=MyFarmsConfigurationFile.yml \ --threaded=true \ --log=/tmp/MyFarmResults.log \ --system=myFarm1 \ --commands='hostname;cat /etc/hosts;grep foo /etc/passwd'
-
Take decisions about user by hosts or user by farm
