Package: autond
auton projectauton is a free and open-source, we develop it to run programs and command-lines on remote servers through HTTP protocol.
There are two programs, auton for client side and autond for server side.
auton is just a helper to transform command-lines into HTTP protocol, it is able to transform basic arguments, file arguments and environment variables.
For example, you can use auton from CI/CD to run on remote servers, you just need to configure your endpoints:ansiblecurlterraformYou can also use auton if you need to execute a new version of a software but you can't install it on a legacy server
or tests programs execution.QuickstartUsing autond in Dockerdocker-compose up -dSeedocker-compose.ymlInstallationautond for server sidepip install autondauton for client sidepip install autonEnvironment variablesautondVariableDescriptionDefaultAUTOND_CONFIGConfiguration file contents(e.g.export AUTOND_CONFIG="$(cat auton.yml)")AUTOND_LOGFILELog file path/var/log/autond/daemon.logAUTOND_PIDFILEautond pid file path/run/auton/autond.pidAUTON_GROUPauton groupauton or rootAUTON_USERauton userauton or rootautonVariableDescriptionDefaultAUTON_AUTH_USERuser for authenticationAUTON_AUTH_PASSWDpassword for authenticationAUTON_ENDPOINTname of endpointAUTON_LOGFILELog file path/var/log/auton/auton.logAUTON_NO_RETURN_CODEDo not exit with return code if presentFalseAUTON_UIDauton job uidrandom uuidAUTON_URIautond URI(s)(e.g.http://auton-01.example.org:8666,http://auton-02.example.org:8666)Autond configurationSee configuration exampleetc/auton/auton.yml.exampleEndpointsIn this example, we declared three endpoints: ansible-playbook-ssh, ansible-playbook-http, curl.
