ClueReleaseManager 0.2

An implementation of a PyPi server

Introduction

CluePyPi is an implementation of the PyPi server backend as provided by http://pypi.python.org. It uses SQLAlchemy (on top of sqlite by default) to store all project metadata and the filesystem for storing project files.

Current Features

• User registration via setuptools

• File upload (ie eggs) via setuptools

• Basic authentication based security

• Simple index browsing

Upcoming Features

• Full http://pypi.python.org PyPi server compatibility

Requirements

• Python 2.5

• setuptools

• WebOb 0.9.4 or higher

• SQLAlchemy 0.5rc4 or higher

• repoze.who 1.0.8 or higher

Installation

Install using the easy_install tool such as:

$ easy_install ClueReleaseManager

Usage

Once ClueReleaseManager is installed, the script cluerelmgr-server will be created to launch the server. See cluerelmgr-server --help for further usage details.

By default ClueReleaseManager will create a cluerelmgr.db sqlite3 db file in the current directory (where the server is running from). It will also create a files directory in the same place which is used to store all uploaded files.

User registration can occur through the standard python setup.py register <someproject> command (which gives you an option for registration) or by manually inserting a user record into the cluerelmgr.db file.
