Install python package from private pypiserver

pip, pypi, python, setuptools

Solution

The server certificate had to be setup properly. For uploading using pip one must create a valid `~/.pypirc` file:

[distutils]
index-servers = example

[example]
repository = https://example.com/pypi
username = myname
password = mypass

For installing packages one needs to add the following section to `.pip/pip.conf`

[global]
extra-index-url = https://myname:mypass@example.com/pypi/simple

As knitti noted in a previous answer it is also possible to user `index-url` instead of `extra-index-url`. This does mean that the cheese shop is not used as a second server.

For using a private server with setuptools unittesting you need to add the following to your `setup.py`:

from setuptools import setup

setup(
    ...
    dependency_links=[
        'https://myname:mypass@example.com/pypi/packages/'
    ])

Problem

I have setup a pypiserver behind an nginx proxy which uses htpasswd for authentication. I am currently able to upload sdists, but I can't figure out how to download them. I want to be able to download them when running `setup.py test` and somehow by using `pip`. Is this possible? ``` [distutils] index-servers = private [private] repository = https://example.com/pypi username = remco password = mypass ``` To make it extra hard the server is currently using a non verified ssl connection. I tried the following setup based on http://pythonhosted.org/setuptools/setuptools.html#setuptools-package-index, but the only documentation on this is 'XXX' ``` #!/usr/bin/env python2.7 from setuptools import setup setup( name='asd', version='0.0.1', package_index='https://example.com/pypi/simple', test_suite='test', tests_require=['foo==0.0.1']) ```
