Hi there,
in buildout I can define only one alternative index server using 'index
=
http://pypi.zopyx.com'. Now we are in the situation where we are
running
two
internal index servers (one for our own internal packages and one PyPI
mirror). Is there some reason for this limitation? I assume this is a
limitation/feature coming from setuptools?
Yes it is. That is exactly where setuptools needs to evolve.
For the record: I have asked for that a few months ago, and Jim said
he wanted to stick with setuptools.
So proposed a patch in setuptools to be able to merge several indexes,
(see http://bugs.python.org/setuptools/issue32)
But it hasn't been reviewed yet.
I think this is a very helpful patch. We would appreciate it if the patch
could make it into the next setuptools release asap.
I made an assumption to use -i but I don't know if it would be better
to have a new argument for it.
Besides, this index merging thing would be helpful for merging
*different* sources
Merging is exactly our problem right now (I can get around with generating
index pages manually right now...works but not really nice).
Not sure where the problem is with the -i parameter. Either we can allow
serveral -i options or just use something like:
-i http://pypi.zopyx.com,http://pypi.foo.com
well yes, that is how I implemented it, but I don't know if that is
how Phillip Eby wants it.
for mirrors, I think we need something specific : a fail-over
mechanism over a list of mirrors for
a given pypi-like server, with a "nearest mirror picked" feature (see
my blob + pep 374 on python wiki)
Mirror selection is a different subject and not the problem here.
I am saying that because you don't want to merge a source and a
mirror, so as long
as http://pypi.zopyx.com != http://pypi.foo.com, it is OK.
Of course not. As said initially we are running a PyPI mirror and an egg
server with our private packages that will never end up on PyPI.
