Install python packages using pip in remote hosts.

pip install rpip

rpip is a basic CLI that has the basic pip commands: install, uninstall, freeze, list and show and follows the same API as pip with some extra options:

• Hosts (--hosts/-h) is the only required option. It can be IPs for example but can also be defined in you ssh config file (~/.ssh/config) for easier reference without passing the other options
• User (--user/-u) is the username to ssh into the hosts
• Private key (--pkey/-k) to ssh into the hosts
• Pip Path (--pip-path/-p), useful to manage packages in multiple virtual environments. Default: /usr/bin/pip

Examples:

$ rpip install requests -h myhost1
$ rpip install requests boto -h myhost1,myhost2,myhost3

# Using IPs (no ssh config file)
$ rpip uninstall requests -h 127.0.0.1 -u ubuntu -k ~/.ssh/mykey.pem
$ rpip uninstall requests boto -h 127.0.0.1,127.0.0.2 -u ubuntu -k ~/.ssh/mykey.pem

# In an virutalenv
$ rpip install requests boto -h myhost1 -p /opt/anaconda/bin/pip
