system-manager 0.1.0

Cross-platform unix-like systems administration wrapper

system-manager:

System-manager is a wrapper to easily perform administrative tasks on a machine in an interactive CLI. I wrote it so I could more easily do package or service management on Unix-like operating systems from a device like my phone where typing commands is not nearly as convenient. I designed it to be relatively cross-platform, with some opinionated choices on what OS-es or package managers I would support. Feel free to add a PR if you want to add additional package managers or operating systems.

Installation:

sudo pip3 install system-manager

Usage:

Packages:

Install the foo package, upgrade the bar package and remove the cow package:

sudo system-manager packages --install foo --upgrade bar --remove cow

Usage:

$ system-manager packages --help
usage: system-manager packages [-h] [-i PKG [PKG ...]] [-u PKG [PKG ...]]
                               [-r PKG [PKG ...]]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -i PKG [PKG ...], --install PKG [PKG ...]
                        packages to install
  -u PKG [PKG ...], --upgrade PKG [PKG ...]
                        packages to upgrade
  -r PKG [PKG ...], --remove PKG [PKG ...]
                        packages to uninstall

Services:

Start the foo service, restart the bar service and stop the cow service:

sudo system-manager services --start foo --restart bar --stop cow
