devpi-findlinks: find-links view for devpi-server

This plugin adds a new view to each index which lists all packages uploaded on that index or any index inherited except root/pypi.

Installation

devpi-findlinks needs to be installed alongside devpi-server.

You can install it with:

pip install devpi-findlinks

There is no configuration needed as devpi-server will automatically discover the plugin through calling hooks using the setuptools entry points mechanism.

Usage

In a default installation with a user named user1 which has an index named dev, the view would be accessible at http://localhost:3141/user1/dev/+findlinks.

Use such an url with the --find-links option of pip or easy_install.

The view uses absolute URLs, to make it possible to use this view via proxy at any location for migration of old environments.
