Mass - Intro

Well over a year ago I introduced mass, which is a tool for managing large numbers of servers. It’s come along way in that time, and it’s well and truly time for another look.

From the users’ point of view, the most interesting things are probably that you can now install it using a one liner provided on the main readme like so

export extraSrc="https://github.com/ksandom/mass.git"; curl https://raw.github.com/ksandom/achel/master/supplimentary/misc/webInstall | bash

The ability to refine results. This will be covered in depth in another episode, but here are some to get you started

• mass --help=--refine
• mass --help=--first
• mass --help=--last

And as always, there’s lots of documentation.

The project repo is at https://github.com/ksandom/mass.
