1/2 Now that've I've #docker -ized my application, infrastructure. I need a small tool that will easily deploy my applications to local dev environments, the test server running on rack in the office, and to the cloud.

I took a brief look at #terraform #ansible, #kubernetes, and #docker #swarm

But each of these seems overly heavyweight for my use case.

2/3 So, I've decided to just clean up my deployment scripts, re-write them in #python instead of #bash, and call it a day.

I'm looking for a command like:

deploy --environment=local my application

3/4 The command should just figure out everything, including GitHub repository where the code for the app is located, the branch that is relevant to the specified environment. It should build the docker images needed for deployment, create the db instances that are needed for the environment, deploy the application and start it the correct way.

4/4 So over the weekend, as I get some time off from the main tasks of the week, I thought, I'll try and build something.

@sumanthvepa For everything you want to do, I'm pretty sure you'll have to do a lot of custom coding regardless of how you do it, but you could check out #pyinfra which is like a more lightweight version of Ansible. Or I should say, it's a lighter-weight tool that tries to do the same thing Ansible does (basically, scripting but optimized for configuring systems). I don't know if it will actually make your job easier, I'm just suggesting it's worth a quick look to see.
