Toi

toi is a command line utility and tcl DSL that helps you write scripts to interact with remote servers via SSH.

Example

Put this into your toi.tcl file:

set host "user@myserverhost.com"

proc deploy {} {
  ssh "git pull origin master"
}

(Note: toi.tcl must be executable)

And on in the command line:

toi deploy

2. git clone git://github.com/juliend2/toi.git
3. now add this line to your .bashrc file: export PATH=$PATH:~/bin/toi/bin
4. source ~/.bashrc

Available commands

1. ssh: execute the specified $command remotely, on the $host specified in the toi.tcl file.
2. in: changes the current $directory on the remote host, for the commands executed in the $body block.
3. local: execute a $command locally.
4. rsync: use rsync to synchronize the $src directory with the $target directory. Optionally accepts rsync-compatible $options.
