Will that also cache wheels? In my experience, wheels are one of the<br>
big time savers in tripleo so I would consider it an important feature<br>
to maintain, however we decide to proceed.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, devpi caches wheels.</div><div><br></div><div>I would suggest that if the pip cache approach isn't appropriate then devpi probably a good solution (though I don't know your full requirements).</div>
<div><br></div><div>The big difference between using devpi and pip caching would be that devpi will allow you to install packages when you're offline.</div></div><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">
