I'm new to fabric, just began using it yesterday. I have ran into a problem
though. I have a script that creates an ec2 instance, and volume. I put it in
a fabfile so that I could ssh into it to format, mount, and upload files to the
volume. What I want to do is create a cron job of the script so I can run it
over a 24 hour period every x minutes. Before I was able to use:
*/5 * 8 8 * /usr/bin/python /home/max/somescript.py
However when I place the fabfile.py instead of somescript.py, my global
variables for env.hosts are not read and it prompts me for a host. Should I be
doing something different? Any help would be appreciated. Also, I just signed
up to the subscribers list but have not received an email confirmation. If you
do have a suggestion, please send it to address@hidden
Thanks,
MB
