Index inheritance across devpi-server instances
by Cristiano Cortezia July 15, 2014

July 15, 2014

Hello, I have a central devpi-server instance deployed on a vps on the cloud, which I'd like to mirror locally on my laptop. Is it currently possible ? I would appreciate if someone could point me the right docs. I already searched without any success. Cheers, and thanks for the nice work done so far !

devpi behavior when a modified pypi distribution has been uploaded with the same version?
by Marcus Smith March 3, 2014

Hello: >From my understanding, it's possible for a pypi project owner to delete, and then re-upload a different distribution with the same version. how does devpi handle this? update the cache? ignore this kind of update? I'm guessing devpi updates the cache, which makes sense. It's not devpi's job to do more than pypi is doing. Just want to know devpi's stance on this, and know that it's intentional. If this is in the docs, let me know. thanks, Marcus P.S. I'm aware of peep as a client-side solution, and at some pt, pip will grow "lock files" as well I think.

Package available at one devpi deployment, but not on the other
by Cristiano Cortezia March 1, 2014

March 1, 2014

Hi there, I have two installations of devpi-server: one on my laptop, and the other on a remote server. When I point PIP_INDEX_URL to my local installation I can grab all the latest packages (i.e. Fabric==1.8.2). If I point PIP_INDEX_URL to my remote central server (supposed to be my oficial distribution server), some package version are not available. Is it possible I am doing anything wrong ?
