Agent Handlers

Overview

The Pulp agent processes messages sent from the server to a consumer. These messages include informing the consumer of a new binding to a repository or a request to install one or more content units.

The implementation for how those requests are found will vary depending on the types of units involved. The agent supports writing handlers that will be used depending on the data in the operation. For example, when a bind request is received for a yum repository, a specific handler is invoked to edit the appropriate repository definition file.

An example extension can be found on the Handler Example page.
