Fabric is a Python library created for streamlining the SSH command execution process to remote servers. It allows developers to automate routine tasks, reducing the level of manual work needed for such activities. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate the steps needed to install Fabric on Fedora Server Latest.
Before you begin, make sure that you have the following:
Fabric relies on Python as its base, so the first step will be to install Python and pip for the Fedora Server. The command to achieve this is:
sudo dnf install python3 python3-pip
This command would install Python 3 and its associated package manager, pip.
Once you have installed Python and pip, the next step is to install Fabric using a pip command. To do this, run the following command:
sudo pip3 install fabric
This command downloads and installs Fabric and all the prerequisites needed to run the package from the Python Package Index, also known as PyPI.
After the installation, verify the version of Fabric and ensure that it is running as expected. To do this, run the following command in your terminal:
fab --version
The output should display the version of Fabric installed on your Fedora Server, along with other relevant information.
In this tutorial, you learned how to install Fabric on your Fedora Server Latest system. Fabric is a powerful and useful tool for automating SSH commands, reducing the time needed for routine tasks.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
