Any interest in a mrsk server exec command?

[nickhammond]

There's mrsk app exec which will run a command in your container but was thinking it'd be helpful to be able to run ad-hoc commands on your servers as well. For instance, when a security issue comes out and an upgrade needs to be applied at the server level. This would facilitate ssh'ing into however many machines and running the command instead of doing this individually. Is this already supported somehow? Or are people usually facilitating this via Ansible/Chef/Puppet/etc?

Would be happy to see this explored.

I was thinking about having some extra step for provisioning the servers using chef since it is ruby with chef-solo. Maybe as some external gem like kamal-chef. What do you think?

Opened up a PR to run one-off kamal server exec commands, I didn't want to go down the interactive route if that wasn't really needed.

We have been using Kamal on production for over 6 months now. This is so much needed!

Our use case mainly involves using it to debug issues, like when the server disk becomes full, and we need to run something on all hosts to clean up.

Thank you @nickhammond for opening PR

PR merged so this should be available in the next release #646.
