*pypiserver* is a minimal PyPI_ compatible server for *pip* or *easy_install*.
2016-06-17 21:44:50 +02:00
It is based on bottle_ and serves packages from regular directories.
Wheels, bdists, eggs and accompanying PGP-signatures can be uploaded
either with *pip*, *setuptools*, `twine`_, `pypi-uploader`_, or simply copied
with *scp*.

Quickstart: Installation and Usage
==================================
*pypiserver* ``> 1.2.x`` works with python ``2.7`` and ``3.3+`` or *pypy*.
Older python-versions may still work, but they are not tested.
For legacy python versions, use ``pypiserver-1.1.x`` series.
2011-07-31 23:42:37 +02:00
.. Tip::
The commands below work on a unix-like operating system with a posix shell.
The ``'~'`` character expands to user's home directory.
If you're using Windows, you'll have to use their "Windows counterparts".
The same is true for the rest of this documentation.
1. Install *pypiserver* with this command::
2011-07-29 03:14:09 +02:00
pip install pypiserver ## Or: pypiserver[passlib,watchdog]
mkdir ~/packages ## Copy packages into this directory.
See also `Alternative Installation methods`_.
2. Copy some packages into your ``~/packages`` folder and then
get your *pypiserver* up and running::
2016-01-21 19:27:38 +01:00
pypi-server -p 8080 ~/packages & ## Will listen to all IPs.
2011-07-29 03:14:09 +02:00
3. From the client computer, type this::
## Download and Install hosted packages.
pip install --extra-index-url http://localhost:8080/simple/ ...
## Search hosted packages
pip search --index http://localhost:8080/simple/ ...
See also `Client-side configurations`_ for avoiding tedious typing.
4. Enter ``pypi-server -h`` in the cmd-line to 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. Multiple package directories can be
specified.
pypi-server understands the following options:
-p, --port PORT
listen on port PORT (default: 8080)
-i, --interface INTERFACE
listen on interface INTERFACE (default: 0.0.0.0, any interface)
-a, --authenticate (UPDATE|download|list), ...
comma-separated list of (case-insensitive) actions to authenticate
Use '.' or '' for empty. Requires to have set the password (-P option).
For example to password-protect package downloads (in addition to uploads)
while leaving listings public, give:
-P foo/htpasswd.txt -a update,download
To drop all authentications, use:
-P . -a .
Note that when uploads are not protected, the `register` command
is not necessary, but `~/.pypirc` still need username and password fields,
even if bogus.
By default, only 'update' is password-protected.
-P, --passwords PASSWORD_FILE
use apache htpasswd file PASSWORD_FILE to set usernames & passwords when
authenticating certain actions (see -a option).
If you want to allow un-authorized access, set this option and -a
explicitly to empty (either '.' or'').
--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, --root PACKAGES_DIRECTORY
[deprecated] serve packages from PACKAGES_DIRECTORY
-o, --overwrite
allow overwriting existing package files
--hash-algo ALGO
any `hashlib` available algo used as fragments on package links.
Set one of (0, no, off, false) to disabled it. (default: md5)
--welcome HTML_FILE
uses the ASCII contents of HTML_FILE as welcome message response.
-v
enable INFO logging; repeat for more verbosity.
--log-conf <FILE>
read logging configuration from FILE.
By default, configuration is read from `log.conf` if found in server's dir.
--log-file <FILE>
write logging info into this FILE.
--log-frmt <FILE>
the logging format-string. (see `logging.LogRecord` class from standard python library)
[Default: %(asctime)s|%(name)s|%(levelname)s|%(thread)d|%(message)s]
--log-req-frmt FORMAT
a format-string selecting Http-Request properties to log; set to '%s' to see them all.
[Default: %(bottle.request)s]
--log-res-frmt FORMAT
a format-string selecting Http-Response properties to log; set to '%s' to see them all.
[Default: %(status)s]
--log-err-frmt FORMAT
a format-string selecting Http-Error properties to log; set to '%s' to see them all.
[Default: %(body)s: %(exception)s \n%(traceback)s]
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 https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver for more information.
Client-side Configurations
==========================
Always specifying the the pypi url on the command line is a bit
cumbersome. Since *pypiserver* 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.
Configuring *pip*
-----------------
For ``pip`` command this can be done by setting the environment variable
``PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL`` in your ``.bashr/.profile/.zshrc``::
export PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL=http://localhost:8080/simple/
or by adding the following lines to ``~/.pip/pip.conf``::
[global]
extra-index-url = http://localhost:8080/simple/
.. Note::
If you have installed *pypiserver* on a remote url without *https*
you wil receive an "untrusted" warning from *pip*, urging you to append
the ``--trusted-host`` option. You can also include this option permanently
in your configuration-files or environment variables.
Configuring *easy_install*
--------------------------
For ``easy_install`` command you may set the following configuration in
``~/.pydistutils.cfg``::
[easy_install]
index_url = http://localhost:8080/simple/
Uploading Packages Remotely
===========================
Instead of copying packages directly to the server's folder (i.e. with ``scp``),
you may use python tools for the task, e.g. ``python setup.py upload``.
In that case, *pypiserver* is responsible for authenticating the upload-requests.
.. Note::
We strongly advise to password-protected your uploads!
It is possible to disable authentication for uploads (e.g. in intranets).
To avoid lazy security decisions, read help for ``-P`` and ``-a`` options.
*Apache*-like authentication (``htpasswd``)
-------------------------------------------
#. First make sure you have the *passlib* module installed (note that
2016-06-24 19:56:09 +02:00
``passlib>=1.6`` is required), which is needed for parsing the Apache
*htpasswd* file specified by the ``-P``, ``--passwords`` option
(see next steps)::
pip install passlib
#. Create the Apache *htpasswd* file with at least one user/password pair
with this command (you'll be prompted for a password)::
htpasswd -sc htpasswd.txt <some_username>
.. Tip:: Read this SO question for running `htpasswd` cmd
under *Windows*:
http://serverfault.com/questions/152950/how-to-create-and-edit-htaccess-and-htpasswd-locally-on-my-computer-and-then-u
or if you have bogus passwords that you don't care because they are for
an internal service (which is still "bad", from a security prespective...)
you may use this public service:
http://www.htaccesstools.com/htpasswd-generator/
2016-06-24 19:56:09 +02:00
.. Tip:: When accessing pypiserver via the api, alternate authentication
methods are available via the ``auther`` config flag. Any callable
returning a boolean can be passed through to the pypiserver config in
order to provide custom authentication. For example, to configure
pypiserver to authenticate using the `python-pam`_::
2016-06-24 19:56:09 +02:00
import pam
pypiserver.default_config(auther=pam.authenticate)
2016-06-22 16:56:15 +02:00
Please see `Using Ad-hoc authentication providers`_ for more information.
2016-06-24 19:56:09 +02:00
#. You need to restart the server with the ``-P`` option only once
(but user/password pairs can later be added or updated on the fly)::
2016-06-22 16:56:15 +02:00
2016-06-24 19:56:09 +02:00
./pypi-server -p 8080 -P htpasswd.txt ~/packages &
Upload with *setuptools*
------------------------
2016-06-24 19:56:09 +02:00
#. On client-side, edit or create a ``~/.pypirc`` file with a similar content::
[distutils]
index-servers =
pypi
local
[pypi]
username:<your_pypi_username>
password:<your_pypi_passwd>
[local]
repository: http://localhost:8080
username: <some_username>
password: <some_passwd>
#. Then from within the directory of the python-project you wish to upload,
issue this command::
python setup.py sdist upload -r local
Upload with `twine`_
--------------------
To avoid storing you passwords on disk, in clear text, you may either:
- use the ``register`` *setuptools*'s command with the ``-r`` option,
like that::
python setup.py sdist register -r local upload -r local
- use `twine`_ library, which
breaks the procedure in two steps. In addition, it supports signing
your files with PGP-Signatures and uploading the generated `.asc` files
to *pypiserver*::
2016-06-23 05:03:40 +02:00
twine upload -r local --sign -identity user_name ./foo-1.zip
2016-06-23 05:03:40 +02:00
Upload with `pypi-uploader`_
----------------------------
You can also upload packages using `pypi-uploader`_, which
obviates the need to download packages locally prior to uploading them to
pypiserver. You can install it with ``pip install pypi-uploader``, and
assuming you have a ``pypi_local`` source set up in your ``~/.pypirc``,
use it like this::
pypiupload packages mock==1.0.1 requests==2.2.1 -i pypi_local
pypiupload requirements requirements.txt -i pypi_local
Alternative Installation methods
================================
When trying the methods below, first use the following command to check whether
previous versions of *pypiserver* already exist, and (optionally) uninstall them::
## VERSION-CHECK: Fails if not installed.
pypi-server --version
## UNINSTALL: Invoke again untill it fails.
pip uninstall pypiserver
Installing the very latest version
----------------------------------
In case the latest version in *pypi* is a pre-release, you have to use
*pip*'s `--pre` option. And to update an existing installation combine it
with `--ignore-installed`::
pip install pypiserver --pre -I
You can even install the latest *pypiserver* directly from *github* with the
following command, assuming you have *git* installed on your ``PATH``::
pip install git+git://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver.git
Installing it as standalone script
----------------------------------
The git repository contains a ``pypi-server-standalone.py`` script,
which is a single python file that can be executed without any other
dependencies.
Run the following commands to download the script with ``wget``::
wget https://raw.github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/standalone/pypi-server-standalone.py
chmod +x pypi-server-standalone.py
or with ``curl``::
curl -O https://raw.github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/standalone/pypi-server-standalone.py
chmod +x pypi-server-standalone.py
You can then start-up the server with::
./pypi-server-standalone.py
Feel free to rename the script and move it into your ``$PATH``.
Running on *heroku/dotcloud*
----------------------------
https://github.com/dexterous/pypiserver-on-the-cloud contains
instructions on how to run *pypiserver* on one of the supported cloud
service providers.

Recipes
=======
Managing the package directory
------------------------------
The ``pypi-server`` command has the ``-U`` option that searches 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::
$ ./pypi-server -U
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 --extra-index-url 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 --extra-index-url 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 shows 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.
2016-01-04 23:06:49 +01:00
Serving thousands of packages
-----------------------------
By default, *pypiserver* scans the entire packages directory each time an
2016-01-04 23:06:49 +01:00
incoming HTTP request occurs. This isn't a problem for a small number of
packages, but causes noticeable slow-downs when serving thousands of packages.
2016-01-04 23:06:49 +01:00
If you run into this problem, significant speedups can be gained by enabling
pypiserver's directory caching functionality. The only requirement is to
install the ``watchdog`` package, or it can be installed during ``pypiserver``
installation, by specifying the ``cache`` extras option::
2016-01-04 23:06:49 +01:00
pip install pypiserver[cache]
2016-01-04 23:06:49 +01:00
If you are using a static webserver such as *Apache* or *nginx* as
a reverse-proxy for pypiserver, additional speedup can be gained by
directly serving the packages directory:
For instance, in *nginx* you may adding the following config to serve
packages-directly directly (take care not to expose "sensitive" files)::
location /packages/ {
root /path/to/packages/parentdir;
}
2016-03-15 21:56:01 +01:00
If you have packages that are very large, you may find it helpful to
disable hashing of files (set ``--hash-algo=off``, or ``hash_algo=None`` when
2016-03-15 21:56:01 +01:00
using wsgi).
2011-08-01 01:58:04 +02:00
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
Managing Automated Startup
--------------------------
There are a variety of options for handling the automated starting of
pypiserver upon system startup. Two of the most common are *systemd* and
*supervisor*.
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
Running as a *systemd* service
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*systemd* is installed by default on most modern Linux systems and as such,
it is an excellent option for managing the pypiserver process. An example
config file for ``systemd`` can be seen below::
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
[Unit]
Description=A minimal PyPI server for use with pip/easy_install.
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
# systemd requires absolute path here too.
PIDFile=/var/run/pypiserver.pid
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
User=www-data
Group=www-data
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/pypi-server -p 8080 -a update,download --log-file /var/log/pypiserver.log --P /etc/nginx/.htpasswd /var/www/pypi
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
ExecStop=/bin/kill -TERM $MAINPID
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
Restart=always
WorkingDirectory=/var/www/pypi
TimeoutStartSec=3
RestartSec=5
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Adjusting the paths and adding this file as ``pypiserver.service`` into your
``systemd/system`` directory will allow management of the pypiserver process with
``systemctl``, e.g. ``systemctl start pypiserver``.
More useful information about *systemd* can be found at
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-systemctl-to-manage-systemd-services-and-units
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
Launching through *supervisor*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
`supervisor <http://supervisord.org/>`_ has the benefit of being a pure python
package and as such, it provides excellent cross-platform support for process
management. An example configuration file for ``supervisor`` is given below::
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
[program:pypi]
command=/home/pypi/pypi-venv/bin/pypi-server -p 7001 -P /home/pypi/.htaccess /home/pypi/packages
directory=/home/pypi
user=pypi
autostart=true
autorestart=true
stderr_logfile=/var/log/pypiserver.err.log
stdout_logfile=/var/log/pypiserver.out.log
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
From there, the process can be managed via ``supervisord`` using ``supervisorctl``.
2016-06-23 04:41:52 +02:00
Using a different WSGI-server
-----------------------------
- The *bottle* web-server which supports many WSGI-servers, among others,
*paste*, *cherrypy*, *twisted* and *wsgiref* (part of python); you select
them using the ``--server`` flag.
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
- You may view all supported WSGI servers using the following interactive code::
>>> from pypiserver import bottle
>>> list(bottle.server_names.keys())
['cgi', 'gunicorn', 'cherrypy', 'eventlet', 'tornado', 'geventSocketIO',
'rocket', 'diesel', 'twisted', 'wsgiref', 'fapws3', 'bjoern', 'gevent',
'meinheld', 'auto', 'aiohttp', 'flup', 'gae', 'paste', 'waitress']
- If none of the above servers matches your needs, invoke just the
``pypiserver:app()`` method which returns the internal WSGI-app WITHOUT
starting-up a server - you may then send it to any WSGI-server you like.
Read also the `Utilizing the API`_ section.
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
- Some examples are given below - you may find more details in `bottle's
documentation <http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/deployment.html#switching-the-server-backend>`_.
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
gunicorn
~~~~~~~~
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
The following command uses *gunicorn* to start *pypiserver*::
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
gunicorn -w4 'pypiserver:app(root="/home/ralf/packages")'
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
2013-01-28 00:45:01 +01:00
or when using multiple roots::
gunicorn -w4 'pypiserver:app(root=["/home/ralf/packages", "/home/ralf/experimental"])'
2013-01-28 00:45:01 +01:00
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
apache/mod_wsgi
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In case you're using *apache2* with *mod_wsgi*, you may adapt the following
Apache-configuration (contributed by Thomas Waldmann)::
## Apache virtualhost configuration for mod_wsgi daemon mode.
Alias /robots.txt /srv/yoursite/htdocs/robots.txt
WSGIPassAuthorization On
WSGIScriptAlias / /srv/yoursite/cfg/pypiserver.wsgi
WSGIDaemonProcess pypisrv user=pypisrv group=pypisrv processes=1 threads=5 maximum-requests=500 umask=0007 display-name=wsgi-pypisrv inactivity-timeout=300
WSGIProcessGroup pypisrv
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
And create a ``/srv/yoursite/cfg/pypiserver.wsgi`` file like this::
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
import pypiserver
conf = pypiserver.default_config(
root = "/srv/yoursite/packages",
password_file = "/srv/yoursite/htpasswd")
application = pypiserver.app(**conf)
2012-03-26 02:22:41 +02:00
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
paste/pastedeploy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
`paste <http://pythonpaste.org/>`_ allows to run multiple WSGI applications
under different URL paths. Therefore it's possible to serve different set
of packages on different paths.
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
The following example ``paste.ini`` could be used to serve stable and
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
unstable packages on different paths::
[composite:main]
use = egg:Paste#urlmap
/unstable/ = unstable
/ = stable
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
[app:stable]
use = egg:pypiserver#main
root = ~/stable-packages
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
[app:unstable]
use = egg:pypiserver#main
root = ~/stable-packages
~/unstable-packages
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
[server:main]
use = egg:gunicorn#main
host = 0.0.0.0
port = 9000
workers = 5
accesslog = -
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
.. Note::
You need to install some more dependencies for this to work, like::
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
pip install paste pastedeploy gunicorn pypiserver
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
The server can then start with::
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
gunicorn_paster paste.ini
2012-04-08 00:29:14 +02:00
Utilizing the API
-----------------
In order to enable ad-hoc authentication-providers or to use WSGI-servers
not supported by *bottle* out-of-the-box, you needed to launch *pypiserver*
via its API.
- The main entry-point for configuring *pypiserver* is the `pypiserver:app()
<https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/blob/master/pypiserver/__init__.py#L116>`_
function. This function returns the internal WSGI-app that you my then
send to any WSGI-server you like.
- To get all ``pypiserver:app()`` keywords and their explanations, read the
function `pypiserver:default_config()
<https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/blob/master/pypiserver/__init__.py#L35>`_.
- Finally, to fire-up a WSGI-server with the configured app, invoke
the ``bottle:run(app, host, port, server)`` function.
Note that *pypiserver* ships with it's own copy of *bottle*; to use it,
import it like that: ``from pypiserver import bottle``
Using ad-hoc authentication providers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ``auther`` keyword of ``pypiserver:app()`` function maybe set only using
the API. This can be any callable that returns a boolean when passed
the *username* and the *password* for a given request.
For example, to authenticate users based on the ``/etc/passwd`` file under Unix,
you may delegate such decisions to the `python-pam`_ library by following
these steps:
1. Ensure ``python-pam`` module is installed::
pip install python-pam
2. Create a python-script along these lines::
$ cat > pypiserver-start.py
import pypiserver
from pypiserver import bottle
import pam
pypiserver.app(root='./packages', auther=pam.authenticate)
bottle.run(app=app, host='0.0.0.0', port=80, server='auto')
[Ctrl+ D]
3. Invoke the python-script to start-up *pypiserver*::
$ python pypiserver-start.py
.. Note::
The `python-pam`_ module, requires *read* access to ``/etc/shadow`` file;
you may add the user under which *pypiserver* runs into the *shadow*
group, with a command like this: ``sudo usermod -a -G shadow pypy-user``.

Known Limitations
=================
*pypiserver* does not implement the full API as seen on PyPI_. It
implements just enough to make ``easy_install`` and ``pip install`` to work.
2011-07-31 23:42:37 +02:00
The following limitations are known:
2015-12-21 11:49:14 +01:00
- Command ``pypi -U`` that compares uploaded packages with *pypi* to see if
they are outdated, does not respect a http-proxy environment variable
(see https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/issues/19).
- It accepts documentation uploads but does not save them to
disk (see https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/issues/47 for a
discussion)
- It does not handle misspelled packages as *pypi-repo* does,
therefore it is suggested to use it with ``--extra-index-url`` instead
of ``--index-url`` (see https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/issues/38).
Please use Github's `bugtracker <https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/issues>`_
for other bugs you find.
