For a lightweight solution, usepypiserver.

Update: PyPi is now powered byWarehouse, which is the replacement for Cheese Shop.

The source to Cheese Shop can be downloaded fromhttps://bitbucket.org/pypa/pypi/src. There is also an example, from the page you linked to, of using Apache as a "dumb" Python package repository:

# Mount pypi repositories into URI spaceAlias /pypi   /var/pypi# /pypi/dev: Redirect for unknown packages (fallback to pypi)RewriteCond   /var/pypi/dev/$1 !-dRewriteCond   /var/pypi/dev/$1 !-fRewriteRule   ^/pypi/dev/([^/]+)/?$ http://pypi.python.org/pypi/$1/ [R,L]RewriteCond   /var/pypi/dev/$1/$2 !-fRewriteRule   ^/pypi/dev/([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ http://pypi.python.org/pypi/$1/$2 [R,L]# /pypi/stable: Redirect for unknown packages (fallback to pypi)RewriteCond   /var/pypi/stable/$1 !-dRewriteCond   /var/pypi/stable/$1 !-fRewriteRule   ^/pypi/stable/([^/]+)/?$ http://pypi.python.org/pypi/$1/ [R,L]RewriteCond   /var/pypi/stable/$1/$2 !-fRewriteRule   ^/pypi/stable/([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ http://pypi.python.org/pypi/$1/$2 [R,L]

Warehouse

Warehouse would be your best bet in 2017. From the project's README:

Warehouse is a next generation Python Package Repository designed to replace the legacy code base that currently powersPyPI

...

You can run Warehouse locally usingdocker anddocker-compose. SeeGetting started in the documentation for instructions on how to set it up.

It is maintained byThe Python Packaging Authority (PyPA) who work in cooperation with members of the Python core development team, and there is alive version running athttps://pypi.org/ which mirrors everything in the legacy PyPI (https://pypi.python.org/).

devpi

We are using it in a corporate environment and are pretty satisfied. It supports replication, private indexes and index inheritance.

There is a fork of djangopypi named djangopypi2 you can get it fromhttps://github.com/popen2/djangopypi2/, I installed it and works for me, this option is what I had choose from a list of about 24 alternatives that I have found in a recently search, you can see the list here:http://uyeya.blogspot.com/2013/10/list-of-local-alternatives-of-pypi.html

Updated: crate.io has shut down and the domain is now something else entirely.

One project that hasn't been mentioned ishttps://crate.io/, which seems very active. It claims to be a "Next Generation Python Packaging Index", but they have their repositories split nicely into pieces that seem to welcome customization and remixing to your purposes.

If you would like a lighter solution than deploying an entire PyPI server, you could try using a server index generated bybasketweaver.

Another missing from this (oldish) list:

djangopypi

It is Django based, which might be a slight overkill, but I love Django and it makes it extremely simple to modify it to your need should it not be satisfying.

And thecrate source code is available, though documentation is, least that can be said, nonexistent:

Crate.Web

It's a Django application providing a Python Package Index. It uses a couple of other packages fromtheCrate repositories, so you might be able to roll out your own version without Django.

I'm specifically thinking about a static one. I always thought there should be a very easy way to go explore directly some [preconfigured] repositories and shop cheese directly from my GitHub orBitbucket public and private repositories, with just a simple (gunicorn) process running.
