Webserver Deployment

As a system administrator, I can deploy all Pulp web applications on one process

  • http://
  • https://
  • file://

As a plugin writer, I can configure a downloader with:

As a user, I can have an Ansible role to install Nginx which enables Nginx integration for Pulp and configures Nginx to serve Pulp. [2922]

Glossary

Add (Content Unit): An operation causing a new repository version to contain a content unit(s)

Applicability - A plugin defined term meaning when a package update available in a repository is applicable to a given consumer as determined by the Consumer Profile.

Artifact - A file associated with one content (unit). Artifacts are not shared between content (units). Create a content unit using an uploaded file ID as the source for its metadata. Create Artifacts associated with the content unit using an uploaded file ID for each; commit as a single transaction.

Content (unit) - A single piece of content manged by Pulp. Each file associated with a content (unit) is called an Artifact. Each content (unit) may have zero or many Artifacts.

Distribution: Where and how the content app serves a Publication. i.e. http vs https and base path component of the URL. A Distribution defines:

  • the base path of the repository publication (required)
  • serving via http (default=False)
  • serving via https (default=True)
  • relationship w/ a Publisher for auto-distribution (should be allowed to be NULL)
  • relationship with Publication (should be allowed to be NULL)

Exporter: An Exporter exports a Publication out of Pulp. e.g. rsync exporter exports content to a remote server

Live API: a viewset endpoint contributed by plugin. For examples see the associated MVP section

Orphan Artifact: An Artifact that is associated with 0 Content Units and 0 Publications

Orphan Content (unit): A content unit that is a member of 0 repository versions

Remove (content unit): An operation causing a new repository version to not contain a content unit(s)

Repository - A named collection of repository versions.

Repository Version - An immutable set of content which is versioned by a sequential number.
