Fabric - Passing arguments to tasks via execute

Question

I have the following Fabric task:

def ssh_keygen(user, dir):
   env.user = user
   run("ssh-keygen  %s" % dir)

I want to call it using "execute" but need to pass the task an argument. i.e. user and dir

execute(ssh_keygen('jbloggs', '/home/jbloggs'), hosts=["server1"])

However this does not work:

No hosts found. Please specify (single) host string for connection: Traceback (most recent 

Is there anyway to achieve this?

Answer 1

execute(ssh_keygen, 'jbloggs', '/home/jbloggs', host="server1")
