pythonpyinvoke

How to change the current working directory

Using invoke, how can I change the directory that the run call operates in?

In Fabric, one would

from fabric.context_managers import lcd
with lcd('foo'):
   local('do')

to run do in the foo directory, but I can't find a similar import in pyinvoke.

Solution

  • Use Context.cd

    Take a look at docs

    with ctx.cd('/path/targeted'):
    # do something in /path/targeted
