run-para 1.2.20

Interactive Parallel SSH jobs manager

run-para

Parallel jobs manager CLI

• POSIX/Linux/MacOS/Windows compatible
• Launch parallel command and maps list of params to command, with interactive display of the running commands outputs
• Keep all output in log files
• Interactive pause/resume/abort jobs, kill stuck command interactively.

Take a look at ssh-para if you need parallel ssh jobs to multiple servers

installation

pip install run-para

By default, run-para uses Nerd Fonts glyphs, modern terminals can now render the glyphs without installing specific font (the symbols can be overridden with SSHP_SYM_* environment variables, see below)

quick start

Run parallel commands:
$ run-para -P host1 host2 host3 -- ssh -n @1 "echo @1 is reachable"
TUI to consult last run logs
$ run-para -T
Review last runs results:
$ run-para -l
Review hosts statuses for last run:
$ run-para -L *.status
View failed hosts list:
$ run-para -L failed.status
Show output of command on all hosts:
$ run-para -L *.out
Show output of command for failed hosts:
$ run-para -L *.failed
Show output of command for host1:
$ run-para -L host1.out

params mapping to command

run-para will match parameters to the command according to @x mapping.
using -P options, can only pass 1 parameter to command
using -f paramsfile, can pass multiple parameters

example:

run-para -P param1 param2 -- echo @1

will launch:

echo param1
echo param2

run-para -f params.txt -- curl -OL "http://@1/download/@2"
params.txt:
server1 "the file1.zip"
server2 "the file2.zip"

will launch:

curl -OL "http://server1/download/the file1.zip"
curl -OL "http://server2/download/the file2.zip"

                        -L[<runid>/]*.out          : all hosts outputs
                        -L[<runid>/]<host>.out     : command output of host
                        -L[<runid>/]*.<status>     : command output of hosts <status>
