Description

Problem

Currently pulp_ansible has several settings. There isn't a consolidated way currently for dynaconf to overlay settings from the pulp_ansible codebase onto the settings file provided by pulpcore.app.settings

Solution

1. Document in the plugin writer's guide a convention that settings should live in pluginname.app.settings

2. Then here you build the list of python paths to the settings file.

3. Then here you have dynaconf load those settings.

This needs to come with documentation for plugin writers and a release note in pulpcore-plugin, even though the changes will mostly occur in pulpcore.

@bruno awesome thanks! I'm bringing back to ASSIGNED so I can add documentation for plugin writers.

  • Sprint set to Sprint 58

This was groomed for the last sprint planning but it did not have the Sprint actually set. This is needed for core to allow pulp_ansible to set settings so we need to have it on the sprint.

Add load of plugin default settings.

  • Includes default settings from {plugin_name}/app/settings.py
  • This settings overrides the data existing in /etc/pulp/settings.py
  • This settings are overridden by env vars prefixed with PULP_
  • So a good practice for plugin writers is to prefix the default configs with plugin name such as RPM, FILE, ANSIBLE etc...

example:

ANSIBLE_SOMEKEY = 'value' on settings.py can be overriden via export PULP_ANSIBLE_SOMEKEY='othervalue'
