Call Fabric directly in Python

I want to extend Fabric with some functionality and would like to call Fabric programmatically.

What I figured out is to call the main() method in https://github.com/fabric/fabric/blob/master/fabric/main.py, but I can't pass any parameters directly to the function, because it reads it's parameters within the function.

Any idea to set the command line parameters programmatically and the calling main()?

You can use the execute method in the Fabric library to call tasks.

You should read the Library use documentation, as it'll likely explain how to do what you're attempting.
