HTTP Notifier

Deprecated since version 2.7: This page describes a notification framework that has been deprecated and will go away in Pulp 3.0.

The HTTP notifier is used to trigger a callback to a URL when the event fires. The callback is a POST operation, and the body of the call will be the contents of the event (and thus vary by type).

Note

This was previously known as a “REST API” notifier in development versions of Pulp 2.0. The first build to include the new name was version 2.0.6-0.12.beta

Configuration

The HTTP notifier is used by specifying the notifier type as http.

The following configuration values are supported when using the HTTP notifier:

url

Required. Full URL to invoke to send the event information.

username

If specified, this value will be passed as basic authentication credentials when the HTTP request is made.

password

If specified, this value will be passed as basic authentication credentials when the HTTP request is made.

ca_path

If specified, this value must be the absolute path to an SSL CA file used instead of the system CA when the HTTP request is made.

Body

The body of an inbound event notification will be a JSON document containing the following keys:

event_type

Indicates the type of event that is being sent.

payload

JSON document describing the event. This will vary based on the type of event.

call_report

JSON document giving the Call Report, if the event was triggered within the context of a task. Otherwise this field will be null.
