summary: To resolve slow pip package installations in a colo-hosted environment, a
|
|
local proxy (mitmproxy) was implemented on Windows, requiring pip commands with
|
|
`--proxy` and `--trusted-host` flags, or for UV, setting environment variables like
|
|
`HTTP_PROXY`.

Today, I had some trouble installing some pip/python packages at my colo hosted by Cogent in Anaheim.
|
|
|
|
Pip direct installs were very slow.
|
|
|
|
The problem was solved by running a local proxy on my windows machine (mitmproxy)
|
|
|
|
The following command lines for PIP were used to make it work:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
pip install --proxy http://10.0.10.10:8080 --trusted-host pypi.org --trusted-host pypi.python.org --trusted-host files.pythonhosted.org <package_name>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When using UV, set environment variables:
|
|
|
|
set environment variables
|
|
```
|
|
HTTP_PROXY`
|
|
`HTTPS_PROXY`
|
|
ALL_PROXY''
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
IE:
|
|
|
|
> export ALL_PROXY=http://123.123.123.123:8080 |
