Description

Cilantropy is a Python Package Manager interface created to provide an "easy-to-use" visual and also a command-line interface for Pythonistas. Today we have many nice distribution utilities like pip, distribute, etc, but we don't have a nice visual approach to inspect current installed packages, show projects metadata, check for PyPI updates, etc.

Cilantropy

Cilantropy is a Python Package Manager interface created to provide an "easy-to-use" visual and also a command-line interface for Pythonistas. Today we have many nice distribution utilities like pip, distribute, etc, but we don't have a nice visual approach to inspect current installed packages, show projects metadata, check for PyPI updates, etc.

How to Install

Installing using pip:

$ pip install cilantropy

Upgrading using pip:

$ pip install --upgrade cilantropy

Docker

Repository @ DockerHub

Docker Compose excerpt

# Docker Compose excerpt
services:
  nginx-ui:
    image: fz11/cilantropy:latest
    ports:
      - 8080:8080
    volumes:
      - nginx:/etc/nginx

uWSGI

uwsgi --http 0.0.0.0:5000 --wsgi-file wsgi.py --callable app --processes 1 --threads 8

Installing as a systemd service

If you're running Linux with systemd (before edit path and other configs in contrib/systemd/cilantropy.service) installed, you can register Cilantropy as a service by copying cilantropy.service (both in contrib/systemd) to /etc/systemd/system.

All standard systemd service management commands (e.g. systemctl enable and systemctl start) apply.

uWSGI + Nginx

Manual

Service management

$ sudo start cilantropy
$ sudo stop cilantropy
$ sudo status cilantropy

or

$ sudo service cilantropy start
$ sudo service cilantropy stop
$ sudo service cilantropy status

Android (Termux)

You can use Cilantropy on your android device with Termux:

$ pkg upgrade
$ pkg install python
$ pip install cilantropy

Authentication

BasicAuth with nginx

In general, this app does not come with authentication. However, it is easy to setup basic auth to restrict unwanted access. Here is how this can be done when using nginx.

Configure the auth file

1. Verify that apache2-utils (Debian, Ubuntu) or httpd-tools (RHEL/CentOS/Oracle Linux) is installed
2. Run the htpasswd utility to create a new user and set a passwort.
   • Make sure, that the directory exists
   • Remove the -c flag, if you have created a user before, since it creates the inital user/passwort file
   • sudo htpasswd -c /etc/apache2/.htpasswd user1

Using Cilantropy

You only need to call the script (the -w option will automatically open your browser):

$ cilantropy -w

Using plp

$ plp --help
Cilantropy - Python List Packages (PLP)

Usage:
  plp list [--compact] [<filter>]
  plp show <project_name>
  plp check <project_name>
  plp scripts [<filter>]
  plp paste [list your packages to pastebin service]

  plp (-h | --help)
  plp --version

Options:
  --compact     Compact list format
  -h --help     Show this screen.
  --version     Show version.

Setting a development environment
