PyPiGit

A simple PyPi-like server that automatically generates python packages from git tags.

Installation

pip install pypigit

How To

• Prepare repos.yaml:

repositories:
  - https://github.com/<author>/<repo>.git
  - [email protected]:<author>/<repo>.git

• Start a server (see python -m pypigit.server --help for all arguments):

python -m pypigit.server --repos="repos.yaml"

• Draft a release (that will create certain tag)
• Install a package with pip:

pip install --extra-index-url http://localhost:9498/simple <repo>==1.0.2

It will automatically build a package from tag 1.0.2, and deliver it to pip. Once built, it will be stored in --cache-direcory so consecutive calls will take no time.

Optionally, you can specify package name in case you have repository name wrong:

repositories:
  - url: https://github.com/<author>/company-<repo>.git
    name: <package-name>
  - url: https://github.com/<author>/company-<repo>.git
    name: <package-name>

SSH

This project is aimed to host private packages, so ssh git remotes are supported:

repositories:
  - url: [email protected]:<author>/<repo>.git
    ssh_key: |
      -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
      <private key>
      -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

If you have same private ssh key for all repositories, you can simply define default_ssh_key instead:

repositories:
  - [email protected]:<author>/<repo>.git
  - [email protected]:<author>/<repo>.git
  - [email protected]:<author>/<repo>.git
default_ssh_key: |
  -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
  <private key>
  -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
    

Developer Use

Branches with dev0 in name (for example, 0.1.dev0) will be treated specially: pypigit will automatically increment a new build version (for example, 0.1.dev1, 0.1.dev2, 0.1.dev3 etc) for each commit hash change.

All you have to do is:

pip install --extra-index-url http://localhost:9498/simple --upgrade --no-cache-dir "repo-name>=0.1.dev"

It will install a new package iteration each time the last commit hash has changed. Only PEP440 compliant branch names will be exported.

Note, this can only work if you use module pypigit_version in your project to version the packages automatically:

setup(
    ...
    setup_requires=["pypigit-version"],
    git_version="0.1.0",
    ...
)

It will try to obtain a version automatically:

• If the repo's current tag matches PEP440, it will be used
• If the repo's current branch matches PEP440, it will be used
• If PYPIGIT_VERSION is defined (for auto-incrementing), it will be used
• Otherwise, it will fallback to the git_version value.
