photon VS pyinfra

Photon: https://github.com/Xyphyn/Photon

It's the best Lemmy client in my opinion, but not well known in the community.

pyinfra – automates infrastructure using Python

There is https://pyinfra.com/

As a sidenote, I also made a small experiment a while ago : https://github.com/linkdd/tricorder/

But it's a bit of a chicken-and-egg problem. Without users, I don't know how it should be used, without features I won't get any users. So for now, it's in a state of "I'll address bug reports and feature requests, but I won't actively develop it".

I like https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra. "pyinfra automates infrastructure using Python"

Only played with it for a little but it seems well designed an simpler alternative to ansible, chef and other such things.

Haven't used it in anger yet, but I have high hopes for PyInfra: https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra

pyinfra - https://pyinfra.com/ - Pyinfra is simpler for me than Ansible. I completed the entire deployment in one afternoon, from installing and configuring the VPS server from scratch to deploying the application and automatically restoring the database from a backup.

I’ve replaced Ansible with PyInfra where ever possible. https://pyinfra.com/ is very clean, and fast but lacks the shear amount of automation that can be found with Ansible.

Some folks don't like YAML all that well, and I can understand where they are coming from. I wish Ansible provided a good Python API so that playbooks could be written in Python easier. But there is a project called PyInfra that is trying to do something similiar to Ansible, using Python as the configuration language. https://pyinfra.com/ It is still pretty new so not got nearly as many modules written for it yet.
