pypyr

pypyr is an open-source task runner for automation pipelines. It enables you to script sequential tasks in a simple YAML format, offering conditional execution, loops, error handling, and retries for any step in the pipeline. This means you can avoid rewriting repetitive yet tricky code for error management, retries, and sequencing with each automation task based on success or failure conditions. Think of it as a turbocharged shell script, but less finicky. Simpler than a makefile. You can run loops, conditionally execute steps based on specified criteria, wait for state changes before proceeding, halt on failures, or suppress errors at any step in your automation flow—all without coding it yourself. Ideal for orchestrating continuous integration, continuous deployment (CI/CD), and DevOps operations. pypyr runs as a straightforward CLI, or you can integrate it into your own code via its low-demand Python API.
