**pypiserver** is a minimal [PyPI](https://pypi.org/) compatible server for **pip** or **easy_install**.
|
|
It is based on [bottle](http://bottlepy.org/) 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**.
|
|
|
|
Note
|
|
The official software powering [PyPI](https://pypi.org/) is
|
|
[Warehouse](https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/). However,
|
|
[Warehouse](https://github.com/pypa/warehouse/)
|
|
is fairly specialized to be **pypi.org**'s own software, and should not
|
|
be used in other contexts. In particular, it does not officially support
|
|
being used as a custom package index by users wishing to serve their own
|
|
packages.
|
|
|
|
**pypiserver** implements the same interfaces as [PyPI](https://pypi.org/), allowing
|
|
standard Python packaging tooling such as **pip** and **twine** to
|
|
interact with it as a package index just as they would with [PyPI](https://pypi.org/), while
|
|
making it much easier to get a running index server.

## Quickstart Installation and Usage
|
|
|
|
**pypiserver** works with Python 3.6+ and PyPy3.
|
|
|
|
Older Python versions may still work, but they are not tested.
|
|
|
|
For legacy Python versions, use **pypiserver-1.x** series. Note that these are
|
|
not officially supported, and will not receive bugfixes or new features.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pip install pypiserver # Or: pypiserver[passlib,cache]
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pypi-server run -p 8080 ~/packages & # Will listen to all IPs.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. From the client computer, type this
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# Download and install hosted packages.
|
|
pip install --extra-index-url http://localhost:8080/simple/ ...
|
|
|
|
# or
|
|
pip install --extra-index-url http://localhost:8080 ...
|
|
|
|
# Search hosted packages.
|
|
pip search --index http://localhost:8080 ...
|
|
|
|
# Note that pip search does not currently work with the /simple/ endpoint.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
See also [Client-side configurations](#Client-Side-Configurations) for avoiding tedious typing.
|
|
|
|
4. Enter **pypi-server -h** in the cmd-line to print a detailed usage message
|
|
|
|
```text

|
|
with one of (0, no, off, false).
|
|
--backend {auto,simple-dir,cached-dir}
|

A backend implementation. Keep the default 'auto' to
|
|
automatically determine whether to activate caching or
|
|
not
|
|
--version show program's version number and exit
|
|

|
|
Listen on interface INTERFACE (default: 0.0.0.0)
|
|
-a AUTHENTICATE, --authenticate AUTHENTICATE
|
|
Comma-separated list of (case-insensitive) actions to
|
|
authenticate (options: download, list, update;
|
|
default: update).
|
|
|
|
Any actions not specified are not authenticated, so
|
|
to authenticate downloads and updates, but allow
|
|
unauthenticated viewing of the package list, you would
|
|
use:
|
|
|
|
pypi-server -a 'download, update' -P
|
|
./my_passwords.htaccess
|
|
|
|
To disable authentication, use:
|
|
|
|
pypi-server -a . -P .
|
|
|
|
See the `-P` option for configuring users and
|
|
passwords.
|
|
|
|
Note that when uploads are not protected, the
|
|
`register` command is not necessary, but `~/.pypirc`
|
|
still needs username and password fields, even if
|
|
bogus.
|
|
-P PASSWORD_FILE, --passwords PASSWORD_FILE
|
|
Use an apache htpasswd file PASSWORD_FILE to set
|
|
usernames and passwords for authentication.
|
|
|
|
To allow unauthorized access, use:
|
|
|
|
pypi-server -a . -P .
|
|
|
|
--disable-fallback Disable the default redirect to PyPI for packages not
|
|
found in the local index.
|
|
--fallback-url FALLBACK_URL
|
|
Redirect to FALLBACK_URL for packages not found in the
|
|
local index.
|
|
--health-endpoint HEALTH_ENDPOINT
|
|
Configure a custom liveness endpoint. It always
|
|
returns 200 Ok if the service is up. Otherwise, it
|
|
means that the service is not responsive.
|
|
--server METHOD Use METHOD to run the server. Valid values include
|
|
paste, cherrypy, twisted, gunicorn, gevent, wsgiref,
|
|
and auto. The default is to use "auto", which chooses
|
|
one of paste, cherrypy, twisted, or wsgiref.
|
|
-o, --overwrite Allow overwriting existing package files during
|
|
upload.
|
|
--welcome HTML_FILE Use the contents of HTML_FILE as a custom welcome
|
|
message on the home page.
|
|
--cache-control AGE Add "Cache-Control: max-age=AGE" header to package
|
|
downloads. Pip 6+ requires this for caching.AGE is
|
|
specified in seconds.
|
|
--log-req-frmt FORMAT
|
|
A format-string selecting Http-Request properties to
|
|
log; set to '%s' to see them all.
|
|
--log-res-frmt FORMAT
|
|
A format-string selecting Http-Response properties to
|
|
log; set to '%s' to see them all.
|

|
|
--log-file FILE Write logging info into this FILE, as well as to

stdout or stderr, if configured.
|
|
--log-stream STREAM Log messages to the specified STREAM. Valid values are

|
|
--log-frmt FORMAT The logging format-string. (see `logging.LogRecord`
|
|
class from standard python library)
|
|
--hash-algo HASH_ALGO
|
|
Any `hashlib` available algorithm to use for
|
|
generating fragments on package links. Can be disabled
|
|
with one of (0, no, off, false).
|
|
--backend {auto,simple-dir,cached-dir}
|
|
A backend implementation. Keep the default 'auto' to
|
|
automatically determine whether to activate caching or
|
|
not
|
|
--version show program's version number and exit
|
|
-x, --execute Execute the pip commands rather than printing to
|
|
stdout
|
|
-d DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY, --download-directory DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY
|
|
Specify a directory where packages updates will be
|
|
downloaded. The default behavior is to use the
|
|
directory which contains the package being updated.
|
|
-u, --allow-unstable Allow updating to unstable versions (alpha, beta, rc,
|
|
dev, etc.)
|
|
--blacklist-file IGNORELIST_FILE, --ignorelist-file IGNORELIST_FILE
|
|
Don't update packages listed in this file (one package
|
|
name per line, without versions, '#' comments
|
|
honored). This can be useful if you upload private
|
|
packages into pypiserver, but also keep a mirror of
|
|
public packages that you regularly update. Attempting
|
|
to pull an update of a private package from `pypi.org`
|
|
might pose a security risk - e.g. a malicious user
|
|
might publish a higher version of the private package,
|
|
containing arbitrary code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Client-Side Configurations
|
|
|
|
Always specifying the pypi url on the command line is a bit
|
|
cumbersome. Since **pypiserver** redirects **pip/easy_install** to the
|
|
**pypi.org** index if it doesn't have a requested package, it is 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](https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/hosting-your-own-index/)** in your **.bashr/.profile/.zshrc**
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
export PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL=http://localhost:8080/simple/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or by adding the following lines to **~/.pip/pip.conf**
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
[global]
|
|
extra-index-url = http://localhost:8080/simple/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note
|
|
|
|
If you have installed **pypiserver** on a remote url without *https*
|
|
you will 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**
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
[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)
|
|
|
|
1. First make sure you have the **passlib** module installed (note that
|
|
**passlib>=1.6** is required), which is needed for parsing the Apache
|
|
*htpasswd* file specified by the **-P**, **--passwords** option
|
|
(see next steps)
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pip install passlib
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Create the Apache **htpasswd** file with at least one user/password pair
|
|
with this command (you'll be prompted for a password)
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
htpasswd -sc htpasswd.txt <some_username>
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Tip
|
|
|
|
Read this [SO](http://serverfault.com/questions/152950/how-to-create-and-edit-htaccess-and-htpasswd-locally-on-my-computer-and-then-u) question for running `htpasswd` cmd under *Windows*
|
|
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 perspective...)
|
|
you may use this [public service](http://www.htaccesstools.com/htpasswd-generator/)
|
|
|
|
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](https://pypi.org/project/python-pam/)
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
import pam
|
|
pypiserver.default_config(auther=pam.authenticate)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please see `Using Ad-hoc authentication providers`\_ for more information.
|
|
|
|
3. 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)
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
./pypi-server run -p 8080 -P htpasswd.txt ~/packages &
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Upload with setuptools
|
|
|
|
1. On client-side, edit or create a **~/.pypirc** file with a similar content:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
[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>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Then from within the directory of the python-project you wish to upload,
|
|
issue this command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
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**::
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
twine upload -r local --sign -identity user_name ./foo-1.zip
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Using the Docker Image
|
|
|
|
Starting with version 1.2.5, official Docker images will be built for each
|
|
push to master, each dev, alpha, or beta release, and each final release.
|
|
The most recent full release will always be available under the tag **latest**,
|
|
and the current master branch will always be available under the tag
|
|
**unstable**.
|
|
|
|
You can always check to see what tags are currently available at our
|
|
[*Docker Repo*](https://hub.docker.com/r/pypiserver/pypiserver/tags/).
|
|
|
|
To run the most recent release of **pypiserver** with Docker, simply
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
docker run pypiserver/pypiserver:latest run
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This starts **pypiserver** serving packages from the **/data/packages**
|
|
directory inside the container, listening on the container port 8080.
|
|
|
|
The container takes all the same arguments as the normal **pypi-server**
|
|
executable, with the exception of the internal container port (**-p**),
|
|
which will always be 8080.
|
|
|
|
Of course, just running a container isn't that interesting. To map
|
|
port 80 on the host to port 8080 on the container::
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
docker run -p 80:8080 pypiserver/pypiserver:latest run
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can now access your **pypiserver** at **localhost:80** in a web browser.
|
|
|
|
To serve packages from a directory on the host, e.g. **~/packages**
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
docker run -p 80:8080 -v ~/packages:/data/packages pypiserver/pypiserver:latest run
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To authenticate against a local **.htpasswd** file::
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
docker run -p 80:8080 -v ~/.htpasswd:/data/.htpasswd pypiserver/pypiserver:latest run -P .htpasswd packages
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also specify **pypiserver** to run as a Docker service using a
|
|
composefile. An example composefile is [provided](https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/blob/master/docker-compose.yml)
|
|
|
|
## 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::
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# VERSION-CHECK: Fails if not installed.
|
|
pypi-server --version
|
|
|
|
# UNINSTALL: Invoke again until 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`
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
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**
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pip install git+git://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Recipes
|
|
|
|
### Managing the Package Directory
|
|
|
|
The **pypi-server** command has the **update** command that searches for updates of
|
|
available packages. It scans the package directory for available
|
|
packages and searches on pypi.org for updates. Without further
|
|
options **pypi-server update** will just print a list of commands which must
|
|
be run in order to get the latest version of each package. Output
|
|
looks like
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ ./pypi-server update
|
|
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 https://pypi.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 https://pypi.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 update -x** 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.
|
|
|
|
### Serving Thousands of Packages
|
|
|
|
By default, **pypiserver** scans the entire packages directory each time an
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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::
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pip install pypiserver[cache]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Additional speedups can be obtained by using your webserver's builtin
|
|
caching functionality. For example, if you are using `nginx` as a
|
|
reverse-proxy as described below in `Behind a reverse proxy`, you can
|
|
easily enable caching. For example, to allow nginx to cache up to
|
|
10 gigabytes of data for up to 1 hour::
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
proxy_cache_path /data/nginx/cache
|
|
levels=1:2
|
|
keys_zone=pypiserver_cache:10m
|
|
max_size=10g
|
|
inactive=60m
|
|
use_temp_path=off;
|
|
|
|
server {
|
|
# ...
|
|
location / {
|
|
proxy_cache pypiserver_cache;
|
|
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Using webserver caching is especially helpful if you have high request
|
|
volume. Using nginx caching, a real-world pypiserver installation was
|
|
able to easily support over 1000 package downloads/min at peak load.
|
|
|
|
### 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* for linux systems. For windows creating services with scripts isn't
|
|
an easy task without a third party tool such as *NSSM*.
|
|
|
|
#### 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
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
[Unit]
|
|
Description=A minimal PyPI server for use with pip/easy_install.
|
|
After=network.target
|
|
|
|
[Service]
|
|
Type=simple
|
|
# systemd requires absolute path here too.
|
|
PIDFile=/var/run/pypiserver.pid
|
|
User=www-data
|
|
Group=www-data
|
|
|
|
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/pypi-server run -p 8080 -a update,download --log-file /var/log/pypiserver.log -P /etc/nginx/.htpasswd /var/www/pypi
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
#### 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
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
[program:pypi]
|
|
command=/home/pypi/pypi-venv/bin/pypi-server run -p 7001 -P /home/pypi/.htpasswd /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
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
From there, the process can be managed via **supervisord** using **supervisorctl**.
|
|
|
|
#### Running As a service with NSSM
|
|
|
|
For Windows download NSSM from https://nssm.cc unzip to a desired location such as Program Files. Decide whether you are going
|
|
to use win32 or win64, and add that exe to environment PATH.
|
|
|
|
Create a start_pypiserver.bat
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pypi-server run -p 8080 C:\Path\To\Packages &
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Test the batch file by running it first before creating the service. Make sure you can access
|
|
the server remotely, and install packages. If you can, proceed, if not troubleshoot until you can.
|
|
This will ensure you know the server works, before adding NSSM into the mix.
|
|
|
|
From the command prompt
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nssm install pypiserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command will launch a NSSM gui application
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
Path: C:\Path\To\start_pypiserver.bat
|
|
Startup directory: Auto generates when selecting path
|
|
Service name: pypiserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There are more tabs, but that is the basic setup. If the service needs to be running with a certain
|
|
login credentials, make sure you enter those credentials in the logon tab.
|
|
|
|
Start the service
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nssm start pypiserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Other useful commands
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
nssm --help
|
|
nssm stop <servicename>
|
|
nssm restart <servicename>
|
|
nssm status <servicename>
|
|
|
|
```
|

|
### 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.
|
|
|
|
- You may view all supported WSGI servers using the following interactive code
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
>>> 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](#utilizing-the-api) section.
|
|
|
|
- Some examples are given below - you may find more details in [bottle
|
|
site](http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/deployment.html#switching-the-server-backend%3E).
|
|
|
|
#### Apache
|
|
|
|
To use your *Apache2* with **pypiserver**, prefer to utilize **mod_wsgi** as
|
|
explained in [bottle's documentation](http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/deployment.html#apache-mod-wsgi%3E).
|
|
|
|
Note
|
|
If you choose instead to go with **mod_proxy**, mind that you may bump into problems
|
|
with the prefix-path (see [#155](https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/issues/155%3E)).
|
|
|
|
1. Adapt and place the following *Apache* configuration either into top-level scope,
|
|
or inside some **<VirtualHost>** (contributed by Thomas Waldmann):
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
WSGIScriptAlias / /yoursite/wsgi/pypiserver-wsgi.py
|
|
WSGIDaemonProcess pypisrv user=pypisrv group=pypisrv umask=0007 \
|
|
processes=1 threads=5 maximum-requests=500 \
|
|
display-name=wsgi-pypisrv inactivity-timeout=300
|
|
WSGIProcessGroup pypisrv
|
|
WSGIPassAuthorization On # Required for authentication (https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/issues/288)
|
|
|
|
<Directory /yoursite/wsgi >
|
|
Require all granted
|
|
</Directory>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or if using older **Apache \< 2.4**, substitute the last part with this::
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
<Directory /yoursite/wsgi >
|
|
Order deny,allow
|
|
Allow from all
|
|
</Directory>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. Then create the **/yoursite/cfg/pypiserver.wsgi** file and make sure that
|
|
the **user** and **group** of the **WSGIDaemonProcess** directive
|
|
(**pypisrv:pypisrv** in the example) have the read permission on it
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
|
|
import pypiserver
|
|
|
|
conf = pypiserver.default_config(
|
|
root = "/yoursite/packages",
|
|
password_file = "/yoursite/htpasswd", )
|
|
application = pypiserver.app(**conf)
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Tip
|
|
If you have installed **pypiserver** in a virtualenv, follow **mod_wsgi**'s
|
|
[instructions](http://modwsgi.readthedocs.io/en/develop/user-guides/virtual-environments.html)
|
|
and prepend the python code above with the following
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import site
|
|
|
|
site.addsitedir('/yoursite/venv/lib/pythonX.X/site-packages')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note
|
|
For security reasons, notice that the **Directory** directive grants access
|
|
to a directory holding the **wsgi** start-up script, alone; nothing else.
|
|
|
|
Note
|
|
To enable HTTPS support on Apache, configure the directive that contains the
|
|
WSGI configuration to use SSL.
|
|
|
|
#### gunicorn
|
|
|
|
The following command uses **gunicorn** to start **pypiserver**
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
gunicorn -w4 'pypiserver:app(root="/home/ralf/packages")'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or when using multiple roots
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
gunicorn -w4 'pypiserver:app(root=["/home/ralf/packages", "/home/ralf/experimental"])'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### paste
|
|
|
|
[paste](http://pythonpaste.org) allows to run multiple WSGI applications
|
|
under different URL paths. Therefore, it is possible to serve different set
|
|
of packages on different paths.
|
|
|
|
The following example **paste.ini** could be used to serve stable and
|
|
unstable packages on different paths
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
[composite:main]
|
|
use = egg:Paste#urlmap
|
|
/unstable/ = unstable
|
|
/ = stable
|
|
|
|
[app:stable]
|
|
use = egg:pypiserver#main
|
|
root = ~/stable-packages
|
|
|
|
[app:unstable]
|
|
use = egg:pypiserver#main
|
|
root = ~/stable-packages
|
|
~/unstable-packages
|
|
|
|
[server:main]
|
|
use = egg:gunicorn#main
|
|
host = 0.0.0.0
|
|
port = 9000
|
|
workers = 5
|
|
accesslog = -
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note
|
|
You need to install some more dependencies for this to work, like::
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pip install paste pastedeploy gunicorn pypiserver
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The server can then start with
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
gunicorn_paster paste.ini
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Behind a Reverse Proxy
|
|
|
|
You can run **pypiserver** behind a reverse proxy as well.
|
|
|
|
#### Nginx
|
|
|
|
Extend your nginx configuration
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
upstream pypi {
|
|
server pypiserver.example.com:12345 fail_timeout=0;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
server {
|
|
server_name myproxy.example.com;
|
|
|
|
location / {
|
|
proxy_set_header Host $host:$server_port;
|
|
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
|
|
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
|
|
proxy_pass http://pypi;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As of pypiserver 1.3, you may also use the `X-Forwarded-Host` header in your
|
|
reverse proxy config to enable changing the base URL. For example if you
|
|
want to host pypiserver under a particular path on your server
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
upstream pypi {
|
|
server localhost:8000;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
server {
|
|
location /pypi/ {
|
|
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host:$server_port/pypi;
|
|
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
|
|
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
|
|
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
|
|
proxy_pass http://pypi;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Supporting HTTPS
|
|
|
|
Using a reverse proxy is the preferred way of getting pypiserver behind
|
|
HTTPS. For example, to put pypiserver behind HTTPS on port 443, with
|
|
automatic HTTP redirection, using `nginx`
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
upstream pypi {
|
|
server localhost:8000;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
server {
|
|
listen 80 default_server;
|
|
server_name _;
|
|
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
server {
|
|
listen 443 ssl;
|
|
server_name pypiserver.example.com;
|
|
|
|
ssl_certificate /etc/star.example.com.crt;
|
|
ssl_certificate_key /etc/star.example.com.key;
|
|
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
|
|
ssl_ciphers HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5;
|
|
|
|
location / {
|
|
proxy_set_header Host $host:$server_port;
|
|
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
|
|
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
|
|
proxy_pass http://pypi;
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Please see [nginx's HTTPS docs for more details](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/configuring_https_servers.html).
|
|
|
|
Getting and keeping your certificates up-to-date can be simplified using,

|
for example, using [certbot and letsencrypt](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-nginx-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-18-04%3E).
|
|
|
|
#### Traefik
|
|
|
|
It is also possible to use [Traefik](https://docs.traefik.io/) to put pypiserver behind HTTPS on port 443, with
|
|
automatic HTTP redirection using Docker Compose. Please see the provided [docker-compose.yml](https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/blob/master/docker-compose.yml) example for more information.

|
### 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 its 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](https://pypi.org/project/python-pam/) library by following
|
|
these steps:
|
|
|
|
1. Ensure **python-pam** module is installed
|
|
|
|
pip install python-pam
|
|
|
|
1. Create a python-script along these lines
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ cat > pypiserver-start.py
|
|
import pypiserver
|
|
from pypiserver import bottle
|
|
import pam
|
|
app = 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**
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
$ python pypiserver-start.py
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note
|
|
The [python-pam](https://pypi.org/project/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**.
|
|
|
|
### Use with MicroPython
|
|
|
|
The MicroPython interpreter for embedded devices can install packages with the
|
|
module **upip.py**. The module uses a specialized json-endpoint to retrieve
|
|
package information. This endpoint is supported by **pypiserver**.
|
|
|
|
It can be tested with the UNIX port of **micropython**
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
cd micropython
|
|
ports/unix/micropython -m tools.upip install -i http://my-server:8080 -p /tmp/mymodules micropython-foobar
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Installing packages from the REPL of an embedded device works in this way:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import network
|
|
import upip
|
|
|
|
sta_if = network.WLAN(network.STA_IF)
|
|
sta_if.active(True)
|
|
sta_if.connect('<your ESSID>', '<your password>')
|
|
upip.index_urls = ["http://my-server:8080"]
|
|
upip.install("micropython-foobar")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Further information on micropython-packaging can be found here: https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/reference/packages.html
|
|
|
|
### Custom Health Check Endpoint
|
|
|
|
**pypiserver** provides a default health endpoint at **/health**. It always returns
|
|
**200 Ok** if the service is up. Otherwise, it means that the service is not responsive.
|
|
|
|
In addition, **pypiserver** allows users to customize the health endpoint.
|
|
Alphanumeric characters, hyphens, forward slashes and underscores are allowed
|
|
and the endpoint should not overlap with any existing routes.
|
|
Valid examples: **/healthz**, **/health/live-1**, **/api_health**, **/action/health**
|
|
|
|
#### Configure a custom health endpoint by CLI arguments
|
|
|
|
Run pypiserver with **--health-endpoint** argument:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
pypi-server run --health-endpoint /action/health
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Configure a custom health endpoint by script
|
|
|
|
````python
|
|
import pypiserver
|
|
from pypiserver import bottle
|
|
app = pypiserver.app(root="./packages", health_endpoint="/action/health")
|
|
bottle.run(app=app, host="
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
import pypiserver
|
|
from pypiserver import bottle
|
|
app = pypiserver.app(root="./packages", health_endpoint="/action/health")
|
|
bottle.run(app=app, host="0.0.0.0", port=8080, server="auto")
|
|
````
|
|
|
|
Try **curl http://localhost:8080/action/health**
|

## Known Limitations
|
|
|
|
**pypiserver** does not implement the full API as seen on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/). It
|
|
implements just enough to make **easy_install**, **pip install**, and
|
|
**search** work.
|
|
|
|
The following limitations are known:
|
|
|
|
- Command **pypi -U** that compares uploaded packages with *pypi* to see if
|
|
they are outdated, does not respect a http-proxy environment variable
|
|
(see [#19](https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/issues/19).
|
|
- It accepts documentation uploads but does not save them to
|
|
disk (see [#47](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 [#38](https://github.com/pypiserver/pypiserver/issues/38%3E)).
