pypiserver is a minimal PyPI compatible server. It can be used to serve a set of packages and eggs to easy_install or pip.
This fork of pypiserver is for Sina App Engine platform enviroment only, and use wsgi as interface.
You are able to setup a productive personal PyPI index in 5 mins.

pypiserver 是最简化的PyPI 兼容服务器。它可以用来提供easy_install 或 pip 使用的packages 和 eggs服务。
此分支版本专门为SAE（Sina App Engine）定制，可以通过wsgi接口运行在模拟环境和SAE上。
你可以在5分钟内搭建生产级的个人PyPI索引服务。
本地服务及更多其他方案请参考https://github.com/schmir/pypiserver .
使用SAE storage 服务作为存储方案，使用之前请启用 storage服务。
pypiserver4sae on SAE using wsgi interface:
import os, sys
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'pypiserver').replace('\\','/'))
import sae
from pypiserver import app
domain = "main" #replace the storage domain name
application = sae.create_wsgi_app(app(root=domain,
redirect_to_fallback=True,
fallback_url="http://pypi.python.org/simple"))

pypi-server -h will print a detailed usage message:
pypi-server [OPTIONS] [PACKAGES_DIRECTORY]
start PyPI compatible package server serving packages from
PACKAGES_DIRECTORY. If PACKAGES_DIRECTORY is not given on the
command line, it uses the default ~/packages. pypiserver scans this
directory recursively for packages. It skips packages and
directories starting with a dot.
pypi-server understands the following options:
-p PORT, --port PORT
listen on port PORT (default: 8080)
-i INTERFACE, --interface INTERFACE
listen on interface INTERFACE (default: 0.0.0.0, any interface)
-P PASSWORD_FILE, --passwords PASSWORD_FILE
use apache htpasswd file PASSWORD_FILE in order to enable password
protected uploads.
--disable-fallback
disable redirect to real PyPI index for packages not found in the
local index
--fallback-url FALLBACK_URL
for packages not found in the local index, this URL will be used to
redirect to (default: http://pypi.python.org/simple)
--server METHOD
use METHOD to run the server. Valid values include paste,
cherrypy, twisted, gunicorn, gevent, wsgiref, auto. The
default is to use "auto" which chooses one of paste, cherrypy,
twisted or wsgiref.
-r PACKAGES_DIRECTORY, --root PACKAGES_DIRECTORY
[deprecated] serve packages from PACKAGES_DIRECTORY
pypi-server -h
pypi-server --help
show this help message
pypi-server --version
show pypi-server's version
pypi-server -U [OPTIONS] [PACKAGES_DIRECTORY]
update packages in PACKAGES_DIRECTORY. This command searches
pypi.python.org for updates and shows a pip command line which
updates the package.
The following additional options can be specified with -U:
-x
execute the pip commands instead of only showing them
-d DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY
download package updates to this directory. The default is to use
the directory which contains the latest version of the package to
be updated.
-u
allow updating to unstable version (alpha, beta, rc, dev versions)
Visit http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pypiserver for more information.
Always specifying the the pypi url on the command line is a bit cumbersome. Since pypi-server redirects pip/easy_install to the pypi.python.org index if it doesn't have a requested package, it's a good idea to configure them to always use your local pypi index.
For pip this can be done by setting the environment variable PIP_INDEX_URL in your .bashrc/.profile/.zshrc:
export PIP_INDEX_URL=http://localhost:8080/simple/
or by adding the following lines to ~/.pip/pip.conf:
[global] index-url = http://localhost:8080/simple/
For easy_install it can be configured with the following setting in ~/.pydistutils.cfg:
[easy_install] index_url = http://localhost:8080/simple/
pypi-server's -U option makes it possible to search for updates of available packages. It scans the package directory for available packages and searches on pypi.python.org for updates. Without further options 'pypi-server -U' will just print a list of commands which must be run in order to get the latest version of each package. Output looks like:
checking 106 packages for newer version .........u.e...........e..u............. .....e..............................e... .......................... no releases found on pypi for PyXML, Pymacs, mercurial, setuptools # update raven from 1.4.3 to 1.4.4 pip -q install --no-deps -i http://pypi.python.org/simple -d /home/ralf/packages/mirror raven==1.4.4 # update greenlet from 0.3.3 to 0.3.4 pip -q install --no-deps -i http://pypi.python.org/simple -d /home/ralf/packages/mirror greenlet==0.3.4
It first prints for each package a single character after checking the available versions on pypi. A dot means the package is up-to-date, 'u' means the package can be updated and 'e' means the list of releases on pypi is empty. After that it show a pip command line which can be used to update a one package. Either copy and paste that or run "pypi-server -Ux" in order to really execute those commands. You need to have pip installed for that to work however.
Specifying an additional '-u' option will also allow alpha, beta and release candidates to be downloaded. Without this option these releases won't be considered.
pypiserver ships with it's own copy of bottle. It's possible to use bottle with different WSGI servers. pypiserver chooses any of the following paste, cherrypy, twisted, wsgiref (part of python) if available.
pypiserver relies on the passlib module for parsing apache htpasswd files. You need to install it, when using the -P, --passwords option. The following command will do that:
pip install passlib
For more options, please check https://github.com/schmir/pypiserver .
pypiserver does not implement the full API as seen on PyPI. It implements just enough to make easy_install and pip install work.
The following limitations are known:
- pypiserver doesn't implement the XMLRPC interface: pip search will not work.
- pypiserver doesn't implement the json based '/pypi' interface. pyg uses that and will not work.
Please use github's bugtracker https://github.com/schmir/pypiserver/issues if you find any other bugs.
