#49042 — Looking for a name for a deployment framework...

Hi all,

Any suggestions for a good name, for a framework that does automatic server deployments?

It's like Fabric, but more powerful.
It has some similarities with Puppet, Chef and Saltstack, but is written in Python.

Key points are that it uses Python, but is still very declarative and supports introspection. It supports parallel deployments, and interactivity. And it has a nice commandline shell with autocompletion for traversing the deployment tree.

The repository:
https://github.com/jonathanslenders/python-deployer/tree/refactoring-a-lot-v2


Suggestions welcome :)
Jonathan

Without forming any opinion on the software itself, the best advice I 
can offer is that naming puns are very popular.  If you're thinking of 
this as a fabric replacement, I would go with cloth, textile, material, 
gabardine, etc.

Most things are taken nowadays.

A short nonsense-word is best. Something like "Folaf". Yeah, it
doesn't spark the imagination, but it's easy to find, if not to
remember.

Well, not "Folaf." That seems to be an African style restaurant
in L.A.

wsad: wonderful serverside automatic deployments

(hm, could use a bit of tweaking, maybe FPS keys don't map easily to names)

Thanks everyone, I'll think about it.

The main reason is that I'm working on the documentation, and this a a good opportunity to think about the naming. python-deploy-framework or python-deployer could be too boring.

Er, Salt is likewise written in Python.
(Your statement seemed to imply otherwise.)

Cheers,

You're right. Salt is also Python, excuse me, and it's very powerful as well.

Whatever you choose, make sure it is easily searchable. Googling for
"puppet" and "chef" only recently gave relevant results for something
not, er, doll or food related. It is not helpful that one of chef's
tools is called "knife".

Puns may be fun, (ok, puns _are_ fun, but don't ask my wife about that)
but it'll be a pain to find information about the software. This _may_
hinder adoption, as helpful search results may be hard to find.

Find something prononouncable, check it for "does not mean anything
insulting to anyone's mother's genetics in whatever language", and do a
quick search for it. The less results you get, the easier information
about your software will be to find later.

OHHH, we've got another google-groups sucker.  Please switch to 
something that works, that doesn't double-post (like your current 
message), and that doesn't double-space any quoting of previous messages.

Google groups has been broken for a long time, though the details change 
from version to version.  Learning to use it right is harder than 
switching to a simple mail client like Thunderbird.

Boring.

How about "Soliloquy".  Then the project tag line could be, "Deploy, or 
not deploy, that is the question".

For further hack value, require that all pull requests to the project be 
done entirely in iambic pentameter:

for host in hosts:
   deploy(the_code).remote()

For further hack delight, require a patch
Submitted for this code restrict itself
To five feet, neither more nor less; iambs.
But how should all those colons be pronounced?
