Stephan Erb - Release Management with Devpi [EuroPython 2015] [22 July 2015] [Bilbao, Euskadi, Spain]
Devpi is an open source PyPi-compatible package server. Its versatile features make it the Swiss Army knife of Python package and release management, enabling anyone to shape a custom release workflow.
In this talk, I will detail how we use our company-wide Devpi installation in order to share a large set of packages across teams, deploy binary packages to our application servers, and mix and mash open source packages with our own. With Devpi being a critical part of our release and deployment infrastructure, I will also cover our high- availability setup and how we perform major version updates with minimal downtime.
While this talk is not meant to be an exhaustive introduction of all available Devpi features, it can offer insights on how Devpi can be used at a larger scale.
