candyman

Definitely looking for help with this project. It works, but the use cases are narrow and the opportunities are broad. I use it narrowly to deploy code to one to many Linux devices, but it's really just a couple of very helpful functions that run commands locally or remotely (on the target Linux machine) and return a promise - allowing you to string your execution together into a sensible workflow.

Because it returns a promise, you can use it with gulp. So you can create a gulpfile.js such as below that uses candyman to deploy app.js and package.json (the candyman 'deploy' function is currently hard coded to just deploy app.js and package.json) to the configured device(s).

var gulp = require('gulp');
var config = require('./gulpconfig');
var Candyman = require('candyman');

var candyman = new Candyman({
  devicename:'mydevice',
  hostname:'mydevice.local'
});

gulp.task('deploy', function () {
    return candyman.deploy();
});
