add_pre_build_hook(func):

Calling this function on a DjangoStack instance with a function passed as the only argument, ensures that function is called before the instance executes any internal code.

add_post_build_hook(func):

Calling this function on a DjangoStack instance with a function passed as the only argument, ensures that function is called after the instance executes any internal code.

add_checkout(source_repository, destination, **kwargs):

Calling this function with source_repository and destination arguments will ensure that repository is cloned to the destination on the deployed server. This is done after the web server, database and Django are installed but before the web server is configured, database restored and configured and any Django operations are performed. kwargs is an optional dictionary of keyword arguments that enables permissions, uid and gid to be set on repository directories and files. Expected format is:

**{
      'dir_attribs': [
          {
              'dir_path': '/var/django/', 'mode': None, 'owner': 'www-data', 'group': 'www-data',
              'recursive': True
          },
          {
              'dir_path': '/var/django/project/', 'mode': None, 'owner': 'www-data',
              'group': 'www-data', 'recursive': True
          }
      ],
      'uids': [
          {
              'dir_path': '/var/django/project/logs/', 'dirs': False,
              'files': True
          }
      ],
      'gids': [
          {'dir_path': '/var/django/project/', 'dirs': True, 'files': True}
      ]
}

Please see https://github.com/hillman/djangostack/blob/master/docs/example_fabfile.py for an example fabfile.py

To deploy DjangoStack from this example fabfile run:

fab -H username@remote_server_ip:22 DeployFullStack

or from a vagrant machine:

fab -H vagrant@127.0.0.1:2222 DeployFullStack

Other options:

• DeploySCM
• DeployDatabase
• DeployDjango
• DeployWebServer

Note the end result is a call to setup_stack on the DjangoStack instance.

Important If deploy_scm is True or repositories are added via the add_checkout function, a private and public bitbucket key must be provided that will enable DjangoStack to pull source code down to the deployment server. DjangoStack will look locally (i.e. in the same directory as the deployment fabfile) for 2 specific files which contain these keys: deploykey (private key) and deploykey.pub (public key).
