Fab file for connecting and disconnecting to Raspberry PI

fabfile.py

from __future__ import with_statement
from fabric.api import local, lcd

# Usage:
# fab connect - mounts /home/pi/<pi_dir> so it's available locally at <workspace><remote>
# fab disconnect - unmount
#
# Note this is Mac specific - Linux distributions use fusermount -u instead of umount
# Requires OSXFUSE and SSHFS from http://osxfuse.github.io/
