nginx-pypi

Simple, small configuration + startup script that will cache PyPI downloads using nginx. Use as follows:

1. Edit your ~/.pip/pip.conf to look similiar to this:

   [global]
   index-url = http://localhost:5079/simple/
   

2. Run pypiproxy.sh.

Now pip will use the local nginx proxy instead of PyPI. Currently, SSL (checking upstream SSL certificates) is not supported (but will be as soon as I get my hands on an nginx version that supports it), so be advised.
