Fabric is a Python library. This library is used to perform Linux shell commands remotely over SSH and yield handy Python objects in return. Or we can say that it is a high-level Python library and a command-line tool that uses SSH for application deployment or for administration tasks. It also performs operations like aborting execution, downloading files, uploading files, etc. In this article, we will look into the steps of installing the Fabric Library on the Linux Operating System.

Features of Fabric:

  • It is easy to install and use.
  • It provides good support for parallel remote execution.
  • It has well-maintained documentation.
  • There is no need to learn another language to use Fabric.

Requirements:

  • Python3
  • Python3-pip
