Flightplan – a Node.js library for streamlining deployments and sysadmin tasks
- swissmanu 13y agoawesome job on the dsl :-D
- codingbeer 13y agoI can't guess if you are trying to be sarcastic. But I would be. The DSL is over-the-top.
- pstadler 13y agoAuthor here. I'm planning to add "with a dead serious DSL" to the introduction text.
- codingbeer 13y agoThat would do it for me :) edit: I actually think this is an interesting topic. I like the way one usually tries to find a theme that fits the actions the program takes. But it could just as well have been called 'deploy' with 'local', 'remote' and 'setup'. Most administrators would instantly know what is going to happen without having a dictionary lying around. If you really want to make it dead serious rename 'host' to 'terminal' and 'user' to 'passenger'. And stuff like that.
- argvzero 13y agoI don't see a "DSL" here. Do you mean "interface"?
- jlas 13y agoYes. The DSL is almost comical. Your users are likely well versed in system administration, these analogies don't make anything easier to understand; rather, it serves to distract attention from the core functionality.
- camus2 13y agoIt uses fibers which is nice.My favorite nodejs library,less ugly than generators.
- willtheperson 13y agoThanks for building this! I've think about this each time I modify my deployment shell scripts. I kept starting to work on something and just stalled out and went back to the scripts. I even love your name and cmd `fly` :)
- theflubba 13y agoIs this a joke?
