Solid Python Application Deployments For Everybody
"It is important to find simple solutions instead of stopping as soon as a first solution is found." - Donald Knuth
Put effort int making your deployments simple.
Development tests!
System Package spotty outdated loss of control
Pin Deps Har Django == 1.4.3 Don't rely on SemVe update w/ pip-tool
build tools repetitive downloads
introspection CM integration versatile
1. check out from VCS 2. create virtualenv 3. install dependencies 4. do whatever you wa 5. package result 6. push to your repo
Abuse the Pipelin run tests LESS/SASS/CoffeeScri compression cache busting
Configuration Management declarative describe the goal CM choses the path
Why anyway safety/security reproducible
Be Paranoid /bin/false REVO ALL
It's Easy! upstart systemd supervisord circus
log to stderr redirect stderr syslo use OS tools
