Manage a collection of git repos that you don't want to manage as sub-modules
Created to be used to manage a set of salt states, formula & pillars in a controlled fashion, the default config file is a YAML file that can also be loaded as a pillar (for whatever reason). Using the branch parameter, you can pin a repo to a branch, sha1, tag, whatever you need to keep it at your known good version.
Also supports creating symlinks for you.
gitshelf is published on pypi here, so you can install from pypi using pip:
pip install gitshelf
You can also install from the github repo:
pip install git+http://github.com/gitshelf/gitshelf
We use the python sh sub process interface to work with git repos, so you'll need a standard git cli install, if you don't know how to do that, this might be the wrong tool for you.
Here's a sample gitshelf.yml
books:
- book: "srv/salt/state/base"
git: "ssh://deploy-user@internal-git-repo-server/salt/state-base"
- book: "srv/salt/state/sudoers-formula"
git: "https://github.com/saltstack-formulas/sudoers-formula.git"
#
# Pillars, an example of using a specific branch
- book: "srv/salt/pillar/base"
git: "ssh://deploy-user@internal-git-repo-server/salt/pillar-base"
branch: "staging"
- book: srv/salt/pillar/base/top.sls
link: some/link/target.sls
$ gitshelf install
Run git status
against each repo, reporting drift
$ gitshelf status
Crudely create a gitshelf.yml for the current directory, recurses down through the directory looking for git repos (by looking for .git/config) and symlinks:
$ gitshelf discover

gitshelf supports token replacement in the gitshelf.yml
:
defaults:
environment: dev
environments:
prod:
description: "Prod deploy kit, use the r/o git mirror"
tokens:
giturlbase: "https://[email protected]"
dev:
description: "dev deploy kit, use the gerrit repo"
tokens:
giturlbase: "ssh://[email protected]:29418"
books:
- book: "/srv/salt/state/formulae/beaver"
git: "{giturlbase}/paas-share/salt/beaver-formula"
branch: 'b3032ff60bbfc77472f79f621b214d0393963796'
You can specify the environment to use using the --environment
option:
gitshelf install --environment prod
TODO: Add support for specifying a token on the command line
