The README is very generic; every time I follow it, I end up with a repo that doesn't work. The pip element's readme is much more useful for setting up a mirror that works with DIB and TripleO. Rather than replicate content from the element here, I've just added a pointer to the element's README. Change-Id: Id6d0f8a75d3fc91a72c4dbb9b9628d4c80dbfb9d
Partial PyPI Mirrors
Sometimes you want a PyPI mirror, but you don't want the whole thing. You certainly don't want external links. What you want are the things that you need and nothing more. What's more, you often know exactly what you need because you already have a pip requirements.txt file containing the list of things you expect to download from PyPI.
pypi-mirror will build a local static mirror for you based on requirements files in git repos.
Use with diskimage-builder
The config below shows a generic sample config. If you're using this mirror in conjunction with diskimage-builder, more specific notes (including some pre-requisites and installation instructions) can be found at https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/diskimage-builder/tree/elements/pypi/README.md
Configuration
A YAML configuration is needed to create a mirror. Below is an example configuration. :
cache-root: /tmp/cache
mirrors:
- name: openstack
projects:
- https://git.openstack.org/openstack/requirements
output: /tmp/mirror/openstack
- name: openstack-infra
projects:
- https://git.openstack.org/openstack-infra/config
output: /tmp/mirror/openstack-infraCreating a mirror
The run_mirror utility creates a mirror. :
run-mirror -c mirror.yaml
