Changelog

1.5.1 - 2017-12-17

  • Fix getting fingerprints automatically when ssh-host-keys is used. [fschulze]

1.5.0 - 2017-10-03

  • New ssh-host-keys option which allows to set host keys directly to force paramiko to use a specific key type to avoid fingerprint mismatches. [fschulze]

1.4.0 - 2017-10-02

  • Allow instance implementations to return multiple fingerprints via get_fingerprints method. [fschulze]
  • Support other key types than just rsa, because paramiko > 2 defaults to ed25519. [fschulze]
  • Output more information about used keys on fingerprint mismatch. [fschulze]

1.3.1 - 2016-06-02

  • Don’t get ssh-fingerprints from master if not set in instance config. This fixes automatic fingerprint fetching for EC2, ezjail etc. [fschulze]

1.3.0 - 2016-05-21

  • Add option ssh-fingerprints which allows to specify multiple fingerprints. [fschulze]
  • Support new output of ssh-keygen which includes the hash type and defaults to SHA256. [fschulze]

  • Allow to specify multiple masters per instance. [fschulze]

1.2.0 - 2015-03-05

  • Add Executor helper to handle local and remote command execution. It’s also handling ssh agent forwarding enabled by either the users ssh config or the ssh-extra-args option. [fschulze]

1.1.0 - 2015-02-28

  • Renamed plain-master to plain, so the uids of instances are nicer. [fschulze]

1.0rc15 - 2014-07-16

  • Only remove bad host key from known_hosts instead of clearing it completely. [fschulze]
  • Removed support for proxyhost option. It caused hangs and failures on missing or invalid ssh fingerprints. [fschulze]

  • Let plugins add type of lists to show with the list command. [fschulze]
  • Use server and instance consistently. [fschulze]
  • Always make instances accessible by their full name in the form of “[master_id]-[instance_id]”. Only if there is no conflict, the short version with just “[instance_id]” is also available for convenience. [fschulze]

1.0rc5 - 2014-06-09

  • Provide helper method ssh_args_from_info on BaseInstance to get the arguments for running the ssh executable from the info provided by init_ssh_key. [fschulze]
  • Allow overwriting the command name in help messages for bsdploy. [fschulze]

  • Instances can provide a get_port method to return a default port. [fschulze]
  • Catch socket errors in init_ssh_key of plain instances to print additional info for debugging. [fschulze]
  • Delay setting of config file path to expose too early use of config in plugins. Refs #29 [fschulze]

1.0rc4 - 2014-05-21

  • Fix massagers for [instance:...] sections. [fschulze]
  • Copy massagers in ConfigSection.copy, so overrides in startup script work correctly. [fschulze]

1.0rc3 - 2014-05-15

  • Fetch fingerprints only when necessary. This speeds up connections when the fingerprint in known_hosts is still valid. [fschulze]

1.0rc2 - 2014-05-14

  • Moved setuptools-git from setup.py to .travis.yml, it’s only needed for releases and testing. [fschulze]
  • More tests. [fschulze]

1.0rc1 - 2014-03-23

  • Test, enhance and document adding massagers via config. [fschulze]
  • Moved ec2 and fabric integration into separate plugins. [fschulze]
  • You can now have instances with the same name if the belong to different masters, they will then get the name of the master as a prefix to their name. [fschulze]
  • Add possibility to overwrite the default config name. [tomster]
  • Improved proxycommand and documented it. [fschulze]
  • Make the AWS instance available in masters. This changes the get_masters plugin interface. [fschulze]

  • Added command plugin hooks. [fschulze]
  • The variable substitution for the proxycommand option now makes the other instances available in a dict under instances. And adds known_hosts. [fschulze]
  • Load plugins via entry points instead of the plugin section in the config. [fschulze]
  • Allow fallback to password for ssh to plain instances. [fschulze]
  • Add option to ask for manual fingerprint validation for plain instances. [fschulze]

0.13 - 2013-09-20

  • Use os.path.expanduser on all paths, so that one can use ~ in config values like the aws keys. [fschulze]

0.12 - 2013-09-11

  • There is no need to add the AWS account id to security group names anymore. [fschulze]
  • Rules are removed from security groups if they aren’t defined in the config. [fschulze]
  • Allow adding of custom config massagers from inside the config. [fschulze]
  • Support block device maps to enable use of more than one ephemeral disk. [fschulze]
  • Added do method on ec2 and plain instances which allows to call fabric commands. [fschulze]
  • Use PathMassager for access-key-id and secret-access-key in the ec2-master section. This might break existing relative paths for these options. [fschulze]
  • Added support for EBS boot instances. [fschulze]
  • Add option ssh-key-filename to point to a private ssh key for ec2 and plain instances. [fschulze]
  • Fix Fabric integration for newer versions of Fabric. [fschulze]

0.11 - 2012-11-08

  • Support both the ssh and paramiko libraries depending on which Fabric version is used. [fschulze]

0.10 - 2012-06-04

  • Added ec2-connection which helps in writing Fabric scripts which don’t connect to a server but need access to the config and AWS (like uploading something to S3). [fschulze]
  • Fix several problems with using a user name other than root for the do and ssh commands. [fschulze]
  • Require Fabric >= 1.3.0. [fschulze]
  • Require boto >= 2.0. [fschulze]
  • Added hook for startup script options. [fschulze]
  • Added possibility to configure hooks. [fschulze]

  • Added lots of tests. [fschulze]

0.9 - 2010-12-09

  • Overwrites now also affect server creation, not just the startup script. [fschulze]
  • Added list command which supports just listing snapshots for now. [fschulze]
  • Added delete-volumes-on-terminate option to delete volumes created from snapshots on instance termination. [fschulze]
  • Added support for creating volumes from snapshots on instance start. [natea, fschulze]
  • Added support for ~/.ssh/config. This is a bit limited, because the paramiko config parser isn’t very good. [fschulze]
  • Added help command which provides some info for zsh autocompletion. [fschulze]

0.8 - 2010-04-21

  • For the do command the Fabric options reject_unknown_hosts and disable_known_hosts now default to true. [fschulze]
  • Allow adding normal servers to use with ssh and do commands. [fschulze]

  • Use argparse library instead of optparse for more powerful command line parsing. [fschulze]

0.5 - 2010-03-11

  • Added gzipping of startup script by looking for gzip: prefix in the filename. [fschulze]
  • Added macro expansion similar to zc.buildout 1.4. [fschulze]

  • Check console output in status and tell user about it. [fschulze]
  • Friendly message instead of traceback when trying to ssh into an unavailable server. [fschulze]
  • Remove comment lines from startup script if it’s starting with #!/bin/sh or #!/bin/bash. [fschulze]
  • Removed -r option for start and debug commands and replaced it with more general -o option. [fschulze]
  • Made startup script optional (not all AMIs support it, especially Windows ones). [fschulze]
  • The stop command actually only stops an instance now (only works with instances booted from an EBS volume) and the new terminate command now does what stop did before. [fschulze]
  • Better error message when no console output is available for ssh finger print validation. [fschulze]
  • Fixed indentation in documentation. [natea (Nate Aune), fschulze]

0.3 - 2010-02-08
