Running pypiserver as a service? I'm writing some scripts which in theory should be able to: - start up a local pypi server as a daemon (or well a service on Windows)
- run "python setup.py develop" on a potentially very big set of eggs, possibly discovering automatically for changes. In theory using develop changes should be automatically seen, but if I move/rename something of course things might not work anymore. - run/debug/develop applications using this big set of eggs. On the distutils list it was suggested to use the "-m" option to easy_install, which avoids writing on the global easy_install.pth, which is one of the current problems. For the first one reading I thought I might use pypiserver (which ships also as a single file) and create a windows service/unix daemon from it. For the second I've seen watchdog: https://github.com/gorakhargosh/watchdog/ which looks interesting. As last thing the whole process should be as transparent and robust as possible, anyone did something similar or has suggestions? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
