Synchronize a Repository

In this section, there is provided a basic workflow for synchronizing a remote repository.

Create a repository foo

#!/usr/bin/env bash
export REPO_NAME=$(head /dev/urandom | tr -dc a-z | head -c5)

echo "Creating a new repository named $REPO_NAME."
pulp file repository create --name $REPO_NAME

echo "Inspecting repository."
pulp file repository show --name $REPO_NAME
{
    "pulp_created": "2019-05-16T19:23:55.224096Z",
    "pulp_href": "/pulp/api/v3/repositories/file/file/680f18e7-0513-461f-b067-436b03285e4c/",
    "latest_version_href": null,
    "versions_href": "/pulp/api/v3/repositories/file/file/680f18e7-0513-461f-b067-436b03285e4c/versions/",
    "description": "",
    "name": "foo"
}

Create a new remote bar

#!/usr/bin/env bash
export REMOTE_NAME=$(head /dev/urandom | tr -dc a-z | head -c5)
echo "Creating a remote that points to an external source of files."
pulp file remote create --name $REMOTE_NAME \
    --url 'https://fixtures.pulpproject.org/file/PULP_MANIFEST'

echo "Inspecting new Remote."
pulp file remote show --name $REMOTE_NAME
{
    "pulp_created": "2019-05-16T19:23:56.771326Z",
    "pulp_href": "/pulp/api/v3/remotes/file/file/e682efef-3974-4366-aece-a333bfaec9f3/",
    "pulp_last_updated": "2019-05-16T19:23:56.771341Z",
    "download_concurrency": 20,
    "name": "bar",
    "policy": "immediate",
    "proxy_url": "",
    "ssl_ca_certificate": null,
    "ssl_client_certificate": null,
    "ssl_client_key": null,
    "ssl_validation": true,

    "validate": true
}

Sync repository foo using remote bar

#!/usr/bin/env bash
echo "Syncing the repository using the remote."
pulp file repository sync --name $REPO_NAME --remote $REMOTE_NAME

echo "Inspecting RepositoryVersion."
pulp file repository version show --repository $REPO_NAME --version 1
{
