minirepo 1.0.3

Installation

$ pip install minirepo

$ tar xvzf minirepo-1.0.3.tar.gz
$ cd minirepo-1.0.3
$ python setup.py install

$ git clone https://github.com/sganis/minirepo.git
$ cd minirepo
$ python setup.py install

Usage

# run it from the command line:
$ minirepo

# or run the python script if you didn't install it:
$ ./minirepo.py

The firt time it’s executed, the program will ask you for the local repository path, which defaults to ~/minirepo in Linux. A json configuration file is created and saved as ~/.minirepo, that you can edit to your preferences. This configuration file looks like this:

{
        "processes"       : 20,
        "repository"      : "/home/user/minirepo"
        "package_types"   : ["bdist_egg","bdist_wheel","sdist"],
        "extensions"      : ["bz2","egg","gz","tgz","whl","zip"],
        "python_versions" : ["2.7","any","cp27","py2","py27","source"],
}

Minirepo uses packages_types, extensions, and python_versions as filters. I was analysing the full list of packages available in pypi.python.org, and it looks that all the options are something like the list below, you can try any other option. For me, I was only interested in python 2.7 packages, sources, wheels and eegs distributions, and some extensions.

PYTHON_VERSIONS = [
        '2', '2.2', '2.3', '2.4', '2.5', '2.6', '2.7', '2.7.6', '3.0', '3.1',
        '3.2', '3.3', '3.4', '3.5', 'any', 'cp25', 'cp26', 'cp27', 'cp31',
        'cp32', 'cp33', 'cp34', 'cp35', 'py2', 'py2.py3', 'py26', 'py27',
        'py3', 'py32, py33, py34', 'py33', 'py34', 'python', 'source'
]

PACKAGE_TYPES = [
        'bdist_dmg', 'bdist_dumb', 'bdist_egg', 'bdist_msi', 'bdist_rpm',
        'bdist_wheel', 'bdist_wininst', 'sdist'
]

EXTENSIONS = [
        'bz2', 'deb', 'dmg', 'egg', 'exe', 'gz', 'msi', 'rpm', 'tgz', 'whl', 'zip'
]

Use pip without internet

$ pip install --no-index --find-links=/home/user/minirepo <package-name>

I prefer to setup environment variables in my profile so I don’t have to provide extra command line arguments.

# save these 2 variable in your profile
$ export PIP_NO_INDEX=true
$ export PIP_FIND_LINKS=/home/user/minirepo

# then run pip as usual
$ pip install <package-name>
