How does one get the output of fabric execution (fab.exe) on windows 7?
I am am interested in using Fabric as a deployment tool and I am having trouble making it through the tutorial. I believe I have it installed correctly (I used easy-install)
I have defined the sample function in fabfile.py:
def hello():
print("Hello world!")
I then open a command window and run
C:\dev>fab hello
A second cmd shell wi开发者_运维问答ndow opens and then closes again nearly instantaneously and I have no idea what it says.
I have tried opening the command window with the /K option
c:\dev>cmd /K "fab hello"
And I have tried redirecting the output to a file, but the file comes back empty.
c:\dev>fab hello >> output.txt
Any hints, suggestions or comments appreciated.
DiggyF's suggestion worked great for taming the cmd shell
fab hello > output.txt 2>&1
I now get the output of the instantaneous shell execution piped to a file.
The output: ImportError: No module named win32api. This led me on a much longer goose chase that needs to be placed in another question.
The solution to getting fabric running on Windows 7:
easy_install fabric
manually install pycrypto-2.0.1.win-amd64-py2.6.exe from: http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/modules.shtml
manually install pywin32-214.win-amd64-py2.6.exe from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/
To keep the shell from closing right away after running, you can use:
from fabric.contrib.console import confirm
def hello():
...
confirm("Would you like to exit?")
