Pulp Debian plugin 2.6.1

Recently, the Pulp 3 Debian plugin 2.6.1 was released. After eight beta versions, this is the first GA release.

Let's take a look at the Debian plugin's main features:

  • Ability to synchronize all or a subset of an upstream repository
  • Support for the manual upload of files to a pulp_deb repository
  • A public GPG key can be used to verify upstream Release files
  • Simple and structured publishing options
  • Use a signing service to sign your simple and/or structured publications
  • Verbatim publishing to recreate the synchronized subset of an upstream repository exactly
  • Support for various Debian content types. Each content type has its own REST API endpoint

The Pulp 3 Debian documentation is robust and contains example workflows.

Workflow

There are two options in the workflow: 1. Create a remote and repository and then synchronize the Debian content from the remote to the repository. 2. Create a repository and manually upload a file to that repository.

After this, you can create a publication and a distribution so that your content is consumable by a package manager.

Install

You can find the Debian plugin on PyPI.

Check out the installation instructions.
