create a repository for other OSs

[feature-engineer]

We've got 2 environments where we run our code: Windows and Linux.

It'd be great if we could tell pip2pi to download packages for both, or just download packages for a specified system other than the one which it currently runs on.

https://github.com/AbdealiJK/pip-downloader might be of interest; it is starting to attempt this problem.

You can pass arguments for pip download directly to pip2pi. You can specify the platform/python version/... there: https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/pip_download/#cmdoption-platform

Does any of you have a solution for this?

pip-downloader is broken for me. So, I'm trying to use pip download with the --platform option. However, passing --platform requires also passing --only-binary :all:, which means that if no wheels were published for a certain dependency the download of all packages will fail...
