Idea for developing **loon** comes from [**sync-deploy**](https://github.com/ShixiangWang/sync-deploy), which is limited by its pure bash code. Therefore, I use Python to implement it and more features will be added to it in the future. ## Installation Install from pypi: ```bash pip install loon ``` Install from GitHub: ```bash pip install git+https://github.com/ShixiangWang/loon ``` ## Usage ### Configuration To access remote host without typing password, you have to generate ssh key with `ssh-keygen` command if it is not available. ```shell $ ssh-keygen ``` Follow the commands, for simplicity, just type `ENTER` to proceed. Copy your key to remote server, replace `user` with your `username` and `host` with your remote host ip address. ```shell $ ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa user@host ``` ### Host management - Add a remote host ```shell $ loon add -U wsx -H 127.0.0.1 -P 22 => Added successfully! # Default port is 22, so don't need to specify it # And we can create a host alias, otherwise # it is same as username of remote host $ loon add -U wsx -H 127.0.0.2 -N host2 => Added successfully! ``` - List all remote hosts ```shell $ loon list +-----+--------+----------+----+ |Alias|Username|IP address|Port| +-----+--------+----------+----+ ||wsx |127.0.0.1 |22 | +-----+--------+----------+----+ |host2|wsx |127.0.0.2 |22 | +-----+--------+----------+----+ ``` - Rename alias ```shell $ loon rename wsx host1 $ loon list +-------+--------+----------+----+ |Alias |Username|IP address|Port| +-------+--------+----------+----+ ||wsx |127.0.0.1 |22 | +-------+--------+----------+----+ |host2 |wsx |127.0.0.2 |22 | +-------+--------+----------+----+ ``` - Switch active remote host ```shell $ loon switch -N host2 => Activated. $ loon list +-------+--------+----------+----+ |Alias |Username|IP address|Port| +-------+--------+----------+----+ |host1 |wsx |127.0.0.1 |22 | +-------+--------+----------+----+ ||wsx |127.0.0.2 |22 | +-------+--------+----------+----+ ``` - Delete a host ```shell $ loon delete -N host2 => Removing host from available list... => Removing active host... => Changing active host to host1 $ loon list +-------+--------+----------+----+ |Alias |Username|IP address|Port| +-------+--------+----------+----+ ||wsx |127.0.0.1 |22 | +-------+--------+----------+----+ ``` ### Common tasks - Run commands ```shell $ loon run 'ls -l ~' total 168 drwxr-xr-x 2 wsx liulab 25 Apr 7 23:26 bin drwxr-xr-x. 2 wsx liulab 6 Apr 4 10:36 Desktop drwxr-xr-x. 2 wsx liulab 6 Apr 4 10:36 Documents drwxr-xr-x. 3 wsx liulab 69 Jun 10 16:57 Downloads drwxr-xr-x 2 wsx liulab 6 Sep 30 10:23 facet drwxr-xr-x 11 wsx liulab 4096 Sep 22 20:13 metawho drwxr-xr-x. 2 wsx liulab 6 Apr 4 10:36 Music drwxr-xr-x 3 wsx liulab 60 Apr 30 17:50 Notebooks drwxr-xr-x. 2 wsx liulab 6 Apr 4 10:36 Pictures drwxr-xr-x 6 wsx liulab 114 Sep 27 17:33 projects drwxr-xr-x 6 wsx liulab 96 Jun 27 16:50 projects_bk drwxr-xr-x. 2 wsx liulab 6 Apr 4 10:36 Public drwxr-xr-x. 2 wsx liulab 6 Apr 4 10:36 Templates drwxr-xr-x 5 wsx liulab 4096 Oct 3 12:24 test drwxr-xr-x 3480 wsx liulab 114688 Oct 3 13:44 tmp drwxr-xr-x 3 wsx liulab 32 Aug 22 17:13 tools drwxr-xr-x. 2 wsx liulab 6 Apr 4 10:36 Videos ``` - Run local scripts This will upload scripts to remote host firstly, then run them. ```shell $ loon run -f ../../tests/scripts/t*.py => Starting upload... t1.py 100% 50 49.0KB/s 00:00 t2.py 100% 50 77.6KB/s 00:00 => Finished uploading in 1s => Getting results: This is t1 script. This is t2 script. ``` - If input contains both files and directories, all files in directory will not be executed. This is a way to include child scripts which does not need to be executed. - If input is only a directory, all scripts (not including scripts in subdirectories) under it will be executed. This is the way to maintain an independent project. You can include data directory using `--data` flag, specify program like `bash` or `python` using `--prog` flag and set remote directory using `--dir` flag. - Upload and download files Use them like `cp` command. At default, use `scp` command to do the job, set `--rsync` to use `rsync` command (`--rsync` is disabled in Windows). Note there are some differences between scp and rsync, especially processing directory. ```shell $ loon upload -h usage: loon upload [-h] [-v] [--rsync] source [source ...] destination positional arguments: source Source files to upload destination Remote destination directory optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose set loglevel to INFO --rsync Use rsync instead of scp optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose set loglevel to INFO $ loon download -h usage: loon download [-h] [-v] [--rsync] source [source ...] destination positional arguments: source Source files to download destination Local destination directory, note '~' should be quoted in some cases optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose set loglevel to INFO --rsync Use rsync instead of scp ``` - Batch process commands By providing a structed stdin/file (CSV, TSV etc) and a sample command with placeholders `{index}` refer to column index (0 based) or column name of file, `batch` command can be used to execute a batch of commands. Users can set thread number by `-T` flag and use `--dry` flag to dry run the code. ```shell $ loon batch -f src/loon/data/samplefile.csv 'echo hello {0}' hello TCGA-2A-A8VO-01 hello TCGA-2A-A8VT-01 hello TCGA-2A-A8VV-01 hello TCGA-2A-A8VX-01 $ loon batch -f src/loon/data/samplefile.csv 'echo hello {0}' -T 4 hello TCGA-2A-A8VO-01 hello TCGA-2A-A8VT-01 hello TCGA-2A-A8VV-01 hello TCGA-2A-A8VX-01 $ loon batch -f src/loon/data/samplefile.csv 'echo hello {0}' --dry => Running echo hello TCGA-2A-A8VO-01 => Running echo hello TCGA-2A-A8VT-01 => Running echo hello TCGA-2A-A8VV-01 => Running echo hello TCGA-2A-A8VX-01 ``` You can also read the input from pipe. ```shell $ echo "yes,no" | loon batch 'echo {0} is not {1}' yes is not no $ cat src/loon/data/samplefile.csv | loon batch 'echo sample {0} has a longer name {1}' sample TCGA-2A-A8VO-01 has a longer name TCGA-2A-A8VO-01-01 sample TCGA-2A-A8VT-01 has a longer name TCGA-2A-A8VT-01-01 sample TCGA-2A-A8VV-01 has a longer name TCGA-2A-A8VV-01-01 sample TCGA-2A-A8VX-01 has a longer name TCGA-2A-A8VX-01-01 ``` You can also handle header and refer to column names with index or name! ``` $ cat tests/header.txt | loon batch 'echo hello {0}' hello user hello wsx hello zd $ cat tests/header.txt | loon batch 'echo hello {0}' --header hello wsx hello zd $ cat tests/header.txt | loon batch 'echo hello {0}, your score is {1}' --header hello wsx, your score is 100 hello zd, your score is 100 $ cat tests/header.txt | loon 'echo hello {user}, your score is {score}' --header hello wsx, your score is 100 hello zd, your score is 100 $ cat tests/header2.txt | loon 'echo hello {user name}, your score is {score}' --header hello wsx, your score is 100 hello zd, your score is 100 ``` - Generate a batch of (script) files `gen` command is similar to the `pbsgen` command below, but removes the `.pbs` file extension, so users have to add the file extension in the first column of the SAMPLEFILE if necessary. The example files can be generated using `pbsgen_example`. ``` usage: loon gen [-h] [-v] [-t TEMPLATE] [-s SAMPLEFILE] [-m MAPFILE] [-o OUTPUT] optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -v, --verbose set loglevel to INFO -t TEMPLATE, --template TEMPLATE A template file containing placeholders -s SAMPLEFILE, --samplefile SAMPLEFILE A csv file containing unique filenames (the first column) and replacing labels -m MAPFILE, --mapfile MAPFILE A csv file containing placeholders and column index (0-based) indicating replacing labels in samplefile -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT Output directory ``` ### PBS management and tasks * `pbstemp` - Generate a PBS template file * `pbsgen` - Generate a batch of PBS files * `pbsgen_example` - Generate example files for pbsgen command * `pbssub` - Submit PBS tasks * `pbsdeploy` - Upload a target directory and submit containing PBS files (have `.pbs` extension) * `pbscheck` - Check status of PBS job on remote host More details please see `-h` option of the commands above. ### Current usage info ```shell usage: loon [-h] [-V] [--author] {add,delete,switch,list,rename,run,upload,download,gen,batch,pbstemp,pbsgen,pbsgen_example,pbssub,pbsdeploy,pbscheck} ... Be an efficient loon. optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit --version show program's version number and exit --author show info of program's author subcommands: {add,delete,switch,list,rename,run,upload,download,gen,batch,pbstemp,pbsgen,pbsgen_example,pbssub,pbsdeploy,pbscheck} description add Add a remote host delete Delete a remote host switch Switch active remote host list List all remote hosts rename Rename host alias run Run commands or scripts on remote upload Upload files to active remote host download Download files from active remote host gen Generate a batch of (script) files batch Batch process commands with placeholders pbstemp Generate a PBS template file pbsgen Generate a batch of PBS files (with .pbs extension) pbsgen_example Generate example files for pbsgen command pbssub Submit PBS tasks pbsdeploy Deploy target destination to remote host pbscheck Check status of PBS job on remote host ``` ## Note This project has been set up using PyScaffold 3.2.2.
