Content Plugins

As part of the Pulp installation, you must add a content plugin for each content type that you want to manage. The following sections contain information about the available content plugins. If you do not find the plugin for the content type you want to manage, consider writing a plugin.

Plugin Changes between Pulp 2 and Pulp 3

  • The ISO content support found in the Pulp 2 RPM plugin is now provided by the File plugin.
  • The Docker plugin in Pulp 2 has been replaced by the Container plugin.
  • Currently, there is no Pulp 3 plugin for Puppet content.

Pulp CLI

The Pulp CLI is continuously being expanded, so the workflow coverage with the CLI vary from plugin to plugin. Also support for some of them is maintained in separate Pulp CLI Plugins.

Role Based Access Control Support

While the functionality is available in Pulpcore, each plugin must add it separately. Please check whether the plugin of your interest has already added RBAC support.

Cloud Storage

It is possible to configure Pulp to use cloud storage. However, plugins can introduce changes that are incompatible with, for example, S3 requirements. A number of plugins are regularly tested to ensure they remain compatible but the level of coverage might not cover our entire matrix of plugins.
