Hello, I have create a "iw.dist" package that implements two distutils commands:
- mregister - mupload They allow to register and upload packages on several PyPI-like servers, with an ehnanced version of .pypirc (compatible with the old version) For example this .pypirc file adds a new server: [server-login] username:tarek password:secret [local-psc] host: http://localhost:8080/plone/psc username:admin password:admin And I can register/upload my egg both to the cheeseshop and to my local PyPI-like server, like this: $ python setup.py mregister sdist mupload Each command will ask at the prompt for each server if the user wants to perform the call on it. a prototype of iw.dist is available at the cheeseshop ++ Tarek Tarek Ziadé wrote: > > Hello, > > I am implementing a PyPI-like server, to allow people using it as a > cheeseshop alternative. > > The .pypirc file that is used together with the register command is > working just for one server and will not allow having several set of > login/password.
