An experimental mirror of PyPi on Google App Engine. To get involved, visit the Pypione Project.
To install packages from the mirror run
easy_install -i http://pypi.appspot.com/ <PACKAGE_SPEC>
To use with zc.buildout, include an index option in your buildout section:
[buildout] index = http://pypi.appspot.com/ ...
For testing, you can download something like disthelper to your tmp directory with:
easy_install -eb /tmp -i http://pypi.appspot.com/ disthelper
If a package is missing from the index, you can tell the mirror to fetch it from PyPi by hitting this URL (<VERSION> is optional):
http://pypi.appspot.com/p/fetch/<PACKAGE_NAME>/<VERSION>
The response is in JSON format and will contain {"successful": true, ...} upon success. Please report bugs to the Pypione Issue Tracker
...and so on
