Plugins » Katello

h1. PulpV3GapAnalysis

h1.  Content Tab

h2.  Content -> Red Hat Repositories

Katello knows the content URLs from candlepin, matches on the CDN, presents them to the user, the user selects them

* Katello creates a Repo tracking this in Pulp with client certificates and CA certificate

* Katello specifies custom options from the 'Custom Repo Creation Page' but these use cases are covered in that section

Katello deletes a Repository

h2.  Content -> Products

h3.  Content -> Products -> New Product (used for things like CentOS, SLES, etc)

All data here is stored only in Katello since this is a Product not a Repository and Pulp doesn't have a concept of a Product

Sync Plans will *not* be handled inside of Pulp

h3.  Content -> Products -> {product_name} -> Repositories

The user selects a type and content-specific fields are shown.

h4. Debian:

h5. Publish Settings

* Checksum: (choice) Default, sha256, sha1   <----- for all repodata including primary.xml

h3.  Content -> Products -> {product_name} -> Repositories -> {repository_name}

This displays a created repository.

Katello allows the user to upload a package

* Receives the data from the user, sends it to Pulp

* Relies on Pulp to fully parse the metadata and create the unit                <------- REQUIREMENT: must have Pulp determine all metadata

* Associates the the unit with the repository

Katello Reads a content Summary on this page

h5.  Content -> Products -> {product_name} -> Repositories -> {repository_name} -> Select Action -> Sync Now

Katello tells the remote associated with the repository to sync

h5.  Content -> Products -> {product_name} -> Repositories -> {repository_name} -> Select Action -> Advaced Sync

Katello can peroform an 'Advnaced Sync':

Optimized Sync - Normal sync, presented

Complete Sync - force-full on sync and force-full on publish      <--------------------- GAP because we don't have force-full

Validate Content Sync - performs a checksum validation on all packages

* True Purpose:  Validate existing downloaded content and redownload if the file(s) are missing or corrupt, redownload them.    <-------- GAP

h5.  Content -> Products -> {product_name} -> Repositories -> {repository_name} -> Select Action -> Republish Repository Metadata

Republishes the metadata.

* Katello would create a new Publication and update the Distribution

h5.  Content -> Products -> {product_name} -> Repositories -> {repository_name} -> Select Action -> Delete a Repository

Deletes a repository

h3.  Content -> Products -> {product_name} -> Repositories

This is the index view of all repositories

Repsitories in Katello can have the same name, but Pulp enforces a unique name on repositories globally      <--------- GAP

Katello takes a Product ID which resolves to a set of repos. Katello fetches this set of repos. For each repo we need to fetch:

* name (str)

* type (str), e.g. 'yum'

* sync status, e.g. 'Not synced, Pending, Error'     <-------------------------  GAP this would require a second call to load the data per Remote

* Content Summary, e.g. 2 packages, 5 errata, etc. Similarly for other types.

Katello can trigger a sync of one or more Repositories at once.

* Trigger the sync on one or more Remotes as independant calls

Katello can trigger a delete of one or more Repositories at once.

* Trigger the delete call to Pulp as independant calls

Search/Filtering of the list of Repositories, for Repository attributes

* content_type: the type of content

* content_view_id: the id of the content View              <-------- not in Pulp anywhere currently

* ignore_global_proxy                      <--------- GAP area, not currently in Pulp, but probably should be

* name

* product

* redhat          <----------   Anything added from Red Hat "Products" page in Katello gets Red Hat.

Search/Filtering of the list of Repositories, for content units

* distribution_arch: 

* distribution_bootable       <-----------    if Katello can detect if it has a vmlinuz init.rd it knows the distribution is bootable. Detected at the end of every sync.

* distribution_family

* distribution_uuid

* distribution_variant

* distribution_version

*NOTE: Must not have to make a call for each item in a list page. Must be able to make one call.*

h3.  Content -> Products -> {product_name} -> Repositories -> {repository_name} -> Packages

Lists packages in a repository (the latest repository version)

Removing packages from the repository

* Can remove n packages from the repository

* Republish, Redistribute the repository

h2. Content -> Content Credentials

h3. Content -> Content Credentials -> GPG Keys

GPG keys can be created and stored by Katello

Pulp3 recommendation is to use pulp_file to hold the GPG keys hosted for clients to receive

h3. Content -> Content Credentials -> SSL Certificate  (GAP. This whole section is a GAP b/c Pulp doesn't "host" SSL certs, you have to manually install them on the filesystem first)

Stores SSL certificates for use by Pulp at sync time as CA cert, client cert, or client key

* name

* value

Supports updating them

Support deleting them

Support searching them (name, organization_id)

SSL Certs are per-product, so Katello needs some way to restrict the set of available SSL certs for the current "product"

h2. Content -> Sync Plans

Sync plans will not be handled by Pulp 3, Katello/Foreman will handle scheduling.

h2. Content -> Sync Status

Show the most-recent sync status from dynflow data. That data is populated by task status results from Pulp, which needs to contain at a minimum:

* start time

* create time

* end time

* state

* progress reports

* fatal errors

* non-fatal errors

h2.  Content -> Lifecycle Environments

Creates a lifecycle environment

* Does *not* involve Pulp

h3. Content -> Lifecycle Environments -> {name} -> Details

Each lifecycle environment has a 'Registry Name Pattern'.      <------- GAP (specific to Docker only)

* Likely going to be on the Distributor

* Katello would use the template to produce a concrete value to set on the Distributor

* Important to ensure that two Distribution don't both receive the same concrete values

h3. Content -> Lifecycle Environments -> {name} -> Content Views

Filterable by:

* composite

* label

* name

* organization_id

h3. Content -> Lifecycle Environments -> {name} -> Yum Repositories

Content will come from CV section on Yum Repositories

h3. Content -> Lifecycle Environments -> {name} -> Errata

Content will come from CV section on Errata

h3. Content -> Lifecycle Environments -> {name} -> Packages

Content will come from CV section on Packages

h3. Content -> Lifecycle Environments -> {name} -> Puppet Modules

Content will come from CV section on Puppet Modules

h3. Content -> Lifecycle Environments -> {name} -> Container Image Tags

Content will come from CV section on Container Image Tags

h3. Content -> Lifecycle Environments -> {name} -> OSTree Branches

Content will come from CV section on OSTree Branches

h2.  Content -> Content Views

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} -> Yum Repositories

List/Remove/Add one or more repositories to the Content View

* Does *not* involve Pulp

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} -> Yum Filters

Katello filters combine together (whitelist/blacklist/etc), and can be heavily modified by users to ultimately produce a set of packages.    <------GAP:  Katello would have to store huge lists of packages/errata to maintain this design.

h5. Package Filters

* Select RPMs using include or exclude filters to be included/disincluded from the content view.

* package name. Also supports wildcard. - an attribute of the metadata

* architecture. An attribute of the metadata

* version, lt, gt, range, etc. An attribute of the metadata

Checkbox with 'include all RPMs with no errata'. Solves a practical issue whereby packages that received no errata are not included in a content view when the user applies a filter that only includes packages referenced as errata.

h5. Package Group Filter

Select package groups to include or remove rpms

* name - an attribute of the metadata

* product - the katello stored attribute

* repository - the repo containing that unit

* description - an attribute of the metadata

h5. Errata by ID Filter                                                                                 <------ GAP: must be able to ask Pulp filter info and exclude 

Filters to produce a list and then you can select from the list.

filterable on errata attributes

* type (multiselect) i.e. security, enhancement, bugfix

* date either or choice:  i.e. updated on, Issued on w/ start/end date

* bug

* cve

* id

* issued

* package

* package_name

* reboot_suggested

* severity

* title

* type

* updated

h5. Errata by Date

Filters to produce a list. You *cannot* select from the list.

filterable on errata attributes

* type (multiselect) i.e. security, enhancement, bugfix

* date either or choice:  i.e. updated on, Issued on w/ start/end date

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} -> Apt Repositories

No filtering. Add/remove Debian repositories from the content view.

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} ->  File Repositories

No filtering. Add/remove file repositories from the content view.

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} -> Puppet Modules

Each module can only be included once. Can't have 2+ versions of the same module in one content view.

Attributes:

* Name

* Author

* Version

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} ->  Container Images

Filtering is 'tag' based and used to produce a concrete set of image names.

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} -> OSTree Content

No filtering. Add/remove ostree repositories from the content view.

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} -> History

Not related to Pulp.

h3. Content -> Content Views -> {name} -> Tasks

Not related to Pulp.

h2. Content -> Content Views -> {name} -> Publish

The concrete content set from all filters is computed and those units are associated with the CV repositories.

Those content view repositories are then published via the Distributions that host Library.

h5. Promotion

Other "promotion" events will cause existing Publications to be exposed via existing/new Distributions associated with the lifecycle environment.

When delivering content to a capsule the "Force Yum Metadata Regernation" is used to cause Katello to inspect the published times of the repo on the main satellite server and the capsule. If nothing changed then don't "resync" the capsule's repo.

h5. Regenerate Repository Metadata

Causes Pulp to force-full publish.

h5. Incremental Update

Take an existing Content View and add/remove packages and errata w/ dependency resolution from the content set. Say a V1 exists, this would create a V1.1.

h5. Remove

Un-distributes and potentially delete the publications for one or more repos backing the content views.

h2.  Content -> Deb Packages

List:

* Name

* Version

* Architecture

Filter options:

* architecture

* checksum

* filename

* name

* version

h5. Details tab

Manifest type

checksum

h5. Lifecycle Environments

For each LE:

* Environment: environment name

* Content View Version: the CV and version

* Published At: the link the user can fetch the image from

h2.  Content -> Errata

List Errata

* Errata ID

* Title

* Type

* Content Host Counts

* Updated, e.g. 1/27/12

Filtering booleans:

* applicable: An errata applies to a host, but it is not installable because all packages are not available via repos in its content views + lifecycle environment. This is computed against 'Library', which is the entire set of Errata in the system.

* installable: An errata applies to a host and all packages are available via its content views + lifecycle environments. This is filtered by the repos that the host is actually subscribed to.

Host filtering behavior:

* errata are only shown if they are applicable/installable to a host that I have access to via the Katello permission system

Filter attributes:

* bug

* cve

* id

* issued

* package

* package name

* reboot_suggested

* severity

* type, e.g. enhancement, security

* title

*updated

h3. Content -> Errata -> {errata_name}

h5. Details

Shows details of the erratum

h5. Content Hosts

List

* name

* OS

* environment

* content view

h5. Repositories

List

* name

* Product

* Last Sync

h3. Content -> Errata -> Select Content Hosts

Will publish an incremental update if the necessary packages are not. e.g. 2.1 built from the repoversion backing version 2

Also an option to trigger an update on the host after the publish is complete.

    In Pulp 2 terms: copy repo, copy errata with recursive=true

Shows the errata and packages that were installed.

* speed throttling and other global settings?

* Errata mailer

* smart proxy page/details

h1.  Terminology

Candlepin Manifest - Defines Products, Subscriptions, and a Content Sets

Product - A collection of repositories. A repository can only belong to one product

Repository Set - Has a name, Label, and URL of the form:  /content/rhel/server/7/$RELVER/$BASEARCH/os/
