## Summary Devpi was crash-looping under memory pressure on the minikube StatefulSet, breaking the Python toolchain across the repo (`mise run docs-mikado`, `prek`, every `uv pip install`). It moves to indri as a native LaunchAgent. ## What changed - **New ansible role** `ansible/roles/devpi/`: installs `devpi-server` + `devpi-web` into a uv-managed venv, initializes the server-dir on first run via 1Password root password, runs as a LaunchAgent (`mcquack.eblume.devpi`) bound to `127.0.0.1:3141`. Bootstraps from upstream PyPI (so devpi can install itself on a fresh box). - **Caddy**: `pypi.ops.eblu.me` now proxies to `http://localhost:3141`. - **Playbook**: `indri.yml` gains pre_tasks for the root password and the new role. - **service-versions.yaml**: devpi flipped from `type: argocd` to `type: ansible`. - **ArgoCD**: removed `apps/devpi.yaml` and `manifests/devpi/`. The in-cluster Application, namespace, and PVC have been deleted. - **Docs**: new how-to `docs/how-to/operations/devpi-on-indri.md`; `restart-indri.md` lists devpi in the LaunchAgent stop list. ## Already deployed (live on indri) - Service running: `launchctl list mcquack.eblume.devpi` → PID 53888 - `curl https://pypi.ops.eblu.me/+api` returns 200 ✅ - `mise run docs-mikado` works again ✅ - 1.0G of cached PyPI data was migrated from the PVC to `~erichblume/devpi/server-dir/` - Minikube namespace and PVC fully reclaimed ## Test plan - [ ] `mise run services-check` (after merge) - [ ] CI workflows that use devpi succeed - [ ] No regressions in tools that depend on `pypi.ops.eblu.me` (prek, uv-script tasks, dagger pipelines) ## Context This is the C1 prelude to a planned C2 chain (`mikado/retire-minikube-indri`) to retire minikube on indri entirely. Doing devpi as a standalone C1 was the right call because (a) it was urgent — it was breaking the toolchain — and (b) it shakes out the migration recipe before we commit to a multi-leaf chain.

# devpi (PyPI Proxy)
|
|
|
|
PyPI caching proxy and private package index. Runs natively on [[indri]] as a LaunchAgent (not in-cluster). See [[devpi-on-indri]] for deploy and operations.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Reference
|
|
|
|
| Property | Value |
|
|
|----------|-------|
|
|
| **URL** | `https://pypi.ops.eblu.me` |
|
|
| **Listen** | `127.0.0.1:3141` (loopback only; reached via Caddy) |
|
|
| **Service** | LaunchAgent `mcquack.eblume.devpi` on indri |
|
|
| **Server-dir** | `/Users/erichblume/devpi/server-dir/` |
|
|
| **Runtime** | uv-managed venv at `/Users/erichblume/devpi/venv/` |
|
|
| **Ansible role** | `ansible/roles/devpi/` |
|
|
| **Versions** | Pinned in `ansible/roles/devpi/defaults/main.yml` (`devpi_server_version`, `devpi_web_version`) |
|
|
|
|
## Indices
|
|
|
|
| Index | Purpose |
|
|
|-------|---------|
|
|
| `root/pypi` | PyPI mirror/cache (auto-created by `devpi-init`) |
|
|
| `eblume/dev` | Private packages (inherits from `root/pypi`) |
|
|
|
|
## Credentials
|
|
|
|
Root password stored in 1Password (`blumeops` vault, item `devpi`, field `root password`). Fetched via `op read` in the `ansible/playbooks/indri.yml` `pre_tasks` and passed to the role on first init.
|
|
|
|
## Backup
|
|
|
|
The server-dir is **not** backed up. The PyPI cache (`+files/`) is re-fetchable from upstream on first request. The local `eblume/dev` index metadata is small but also not critical to retain — packages can be republished from source. If retention becomes important, add `/Users/erichblume/devpi/server-dir/` to `borgmatic_source_directories`.
