running fabfile task from django

I have a fabric task eg-

def run_task():

#code here

From the command prompt I run this task:

fab -c env.fabricrc run_task -H hostnamr

How can I run this task from django?I click on a button on a webpage in django app and it should do this. How can I achieve this?

Here's the section on how to use fabric as a python module/library without using the fab command to run tasks.

Short example:

from fabric.api import execute
#import your task if it is not in the same module, i.e.:
from mytasks import run_task

execute(run_task, hosts='hostname')

I think you should place this logic somewhere in your Django app. And let run_task be just a wrapper around this logic.

It is fabfile that's based on the app, not vise versa.
