Pulp

Hi Swisscom,

We are working on improving this area of the installer; tooling to make it much easier to identify and install compatible versions of plugins.

In the meantime, here is an example:

Follow this guide: https://pulp-installer.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart/#example-playbook-for-installing-plugins but:

For step 1: ansible-galaxy collection install pulp.pulp_installer:3.6.3-1

(That version will upgrade pulpcore to 3.6.3 specifically. The installer has been updated with a post-release, so the installer is 3.6.3-1 .)

For step 3, this playbook. Note that it will only upgrade your install if pulp-rpm is the only plugin installed. If you have other plugins installed, bout must specify them:

---
- hosts: all
  vars:
    pulp_settings:
      secret_key: << YOUR SECRET HERE >>
      content_origin: "https://{{ ansible_fqdn }}"
    pulp_default_admin_password: << YOUR PASSWORD HERE >>
    pulp_install_plugins:
      # galaxy-ng: {}
      # pulp-ansible: {}
      # pulp-certguard: {}
      # pulp-container: {}
      # pulp-cookbook: {}
      # pulp-deb: {}
      # pulp-file: {}
      # pulp-gem: {}
      # pulp-maven: {}
      # pulp-npm: {}
      # pulp-python: {}
      pulp-rpm:
        version: "3.6.2"
  roles:
    - pulp.pulp_installer.pulp_all_services
  environment:
    DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE: pulpcore.app.settings

Also, pulp-rpm 3.6.2 is the latest version, and it is actually compatible with pulpcore 3.6.3. The pulp-rpm 3.6 branch is compatible with the pulpcore 3.6 branch.

Also, the installer would prevent you from upgrading (throw an error early on, before messing up your Pulp installation) if you tried to install an incompatible version of pulp-rpm (or any other plugin) on top of pulpcore's version prescribed by the installer's version. (This is a feature we added months ago.)

I'm going to close this ticket, but feel free to re-open it if you have any further questions.
