Quickstart

color-cat

echo abc | color-cat -l label             # print colored label and output
echo abc | color-cat -l label -c magenta  # specify color
echo abc | color-cat -l label -s '=>'     # specify separator
color-cat -l label README.rst             # print the content of the file

color-ssh

  • Basic usage
color-ssh server-1 ls -l                       # run command in server-1 with colored output
color-ssh server-1 'cd /tmp && pwd'
color-ssh --ssh 'ssh -v' username@server-1 id  # overwrite ssh command to "ssh -v"
  • Parallel command executing
color-ssh -h ~/hosts ls -l              # load host list from file (each line "[user@]host[:port]")
color-ssh -H 'server-1 server-2' ls -l  # specify server list within the command line
color-ssh -h ~/hosts -p 4 ls -l         # specify parallelism
  • Uploading files and distributing command-line arguments
color-ssh -h ~/hosts --upload-with /path/to/xxx do-something /path/to/xxx     # upload file before executing command
color-ssh -h ~/hosts --upload-with '/path/to/xxx /path/to/yyy' do-something   # upload two files
color-ssh -h ~/hosts --distribute do-something a b c d e
  # distirubute arguments to each server
  # e.g.
  # server-1: do-something a b c
  # server-2: do-something d e
color-ssh -h ~/hosts --upload --distribute do-something /path/to/xxx /path/to/yyy
  # upload files before executing command
  # e.g.
  # server-1: do-something /path/to/xxx (uploading /path/to/xxx)
  # server-2: do-something /path/to/yyy (uploading /path/to/yyy)
