pip 7.0.1: you should use "--trusted-host". Hey, no such option "--trusted-host"!

$ cat req.txt 
--extra-index-url http://pip.mycompany.com/simple 
mylib
myanotherlib

$ pip install -r req.txt

$ pip install -r req1.txt

I know that i can run pip install -r file.txt --trusted-host=mycompany.com but I configure my servers with Chef, not running pip directly.

cat ~/.pip/pip.conf
[global]
index-url = http://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple/

[install]
trusted-host=mirrors.aliyun.com

this should be feasible.

I believe --trusted-host should go to pip.conf or to command line. It should not be part of requirements.txt.
