  • Introduces anonymous telemetry data posting to https://analytics.pulpproject.org/. This is enabled by default, and can be disabled by setting the TELEMETRY setting to False. See the telemetry docs for more info on exactly what is posted along with an example. #3115

Bugfixes

  • Fixed the value of the Content-Type header returned for .xml.gz files. #2811

  • Improve content app performance on head requests #2924

  • Use published relative paths for FS Exporter. #2933

  • Configured aiohttp to avoid rewriting redirect URLs, as some web servers (e.g. Amazon CloudFront) can be tempermental about the encoding of the URL. #2964

  • Fixed inaccurate 404 error message for content app. #2977

  • Fixed variable referenced before assignment error in django-admin dump-permissions. #3011

  • Do not create telemetry TaskSchedule for production systems. #3015

  • Fixed a bug where Content-Length header value was wrong when on-demand content was requested with a Range header that has an end value greater than the size of the content. #3055

  • Fixed a bug in the routing logic, where generic base class viewsets were served on actual urls. #3056

  • Fixed a bug in import code where all objects imported would also be added to the target repository by their UUID. In case of a UUID-collision with content, unwanted content may have ended up being in the next repository version. #3064

  • Fixed a bug that caused the import machinery to import the same content multiple times in a row. #3075

  • Limited access policy reset to viewsets with a default one. This will solve 500 errors when trying to reset an access policy whose viewset name is repeated by an abstract base class. Stopped reporting on unmodified access policies when migrating. #3080

  • Fixed another rare deadlock for high-concurrency/overlapping-content syncs. #3111

  • Fixed the progress report counter for imported content units. #3113

    Added support for sftp storage via the pulpcore.app.models.storage.PulpSFTPStorage class. #2537

  • Added more details to an error message that is shown when none of the allowed content checksums hashers could be used. #2550

  • Add contains_permission query parameter to the roles API that allows clients to get back a list of roles that have any permission in a list of permissions. #2715

  • Master Content endpoint, /pulp/api/v3/content/, has a new access policy that allows any authenticated user to view content. The endpoint now scopes the content based on repositories the user can see. #2724

  • New AccessPolicies have been added to ContentGuard, Distribution, Publication, Repository, and RepositoryVersions master ViewSets. Queryset scoping has been enabled for each ViewSet. #2725

  • New AccessPolicy for ContentRedirectContentGuard ViewSet has been added. #2726

  • Added dump-permissions management command to list deprecated permissions not yet translated into roles. This is the only way to get to this information after the 3.20 release. #2741

  • Add ?for_object_type query parameter to Roles API that accepts an object HREF and returns a list of roles that only contain permissions for the given object type. #2747

  • Add role description and permissions to group and user role serializer. #2765

Bugfixes

  • Leading and trailing whitespace characters are no longer trimmed in passwords within remotes. #2068

  • Fixed generation of the redirect url to the object storage #2075

  • Taught PulpImport to stream imports rather than reading files into memory in one chunk.

    This largely alleviates the memory-pressure that results from importing multiple large repositories in parallel. #2307

  • Made the API root endpoint accessible for anonymous users once again. #2340

  • Removed il8n from the logs written so they will always show up in English for speedy resolution of error messages. All user facing strings are still expected to be il8n. #2477

  • Fixed does_batch method in sync pipeline to allow waiting on content that is already resolved. #2557

  • Fixed OOM error after uploading large chunked files. #2573

  • Ensure downloader resets file on retry. #2576

  • Taught PulpImport to retry more than once in the event of creation-collisions.

    This fixes a rare import-failure during high-concurrency, high-content-overlap imports. #2589

  • Improved the error message when HTTP proxies reject requests from Pulp. #2654

  • Fix ?ordering=role on user and group role apis so that it sorts results by role name. #2703

  • Add options to the role_util functions to make them work the same as guardian did. #2739

  • Fixed a bug that disallowed administrators to create a signing service via the pulpcore-manager utility. #2798

  • Reduced duplicate SQL queries for AccessPolicy when accessing any view. #2802

  • Fixed docs regarding the default for orphan protection time. #2810

  • Started showing errors when users try to export remote artifacts. #2817

  • Restore multiple-retry logic for PulpImport. #2854

Improved Documentation

Removals

  • Removed the group permission endpoints api/v3/groups/:id/model_permissions/ and api/v3/groups/:id/object_permissions/. Permissions should be managed via roles exclusively. #2050

  • Removed django-guardian from the stack. The guardian.backends.ObjectPermissionBackend should not be used anymore. #2051

  • Deprecated creation hook interface was removed. Creation hook need to be registered with the view set by the plugin writer before being used. Creation hooks can no longer be added with the deprecated name permission_assignments. #2559

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Plugins are required to provide the python_package_name as a string attribute on their subclass of PulpPluginAppConfig. #1982

  • Exposed the method raise_for_unknown_content_units which raises ValidationError for content units that were not found in the database. #2052

  • Plugins now have to enable default queryset scoping by setting the queryset_scoping field on the AccessPolicy to {"function": "scope_queryset"}.

    Default queryset scoping behavior can be changed by supplying a new scope_queryset method.

    Extra queryset scoping functions can be declared on plugin ViewSets and used by setting the AccessPolicy’s queryset_scoping field. #2114

  • DeclarativeArtifact now accepts a urls option which permits multiple URLs to be provided for a single artifact. If multiple URLs are provided, the download stage will try each of them in turn upon encountering failures. #2175

  • Exposed the function pulpcore.plugin.util.verify_signature for verifying signatures created by signing services. #2476

  • Added pulpcore.plugin.content.ArtifactResponse to plugin API. Use this response to stream an artifact from the object storage if redirecting is impossible. #2537

  • Queryset scoping is now performed when the ViewSet’s AccessPolicy field scope_queryset is set to a function on the ViewSet.

    NamedModelViewSet now has default scoping method scope_queryset that will scope the request off of queryset_filtering_required_permission if present. If ViewSet is a master ViewSet then scoping will be performed by calling each child’s scoping method if present. #2723

  • Content ViewSets default scope_queryset method will scope based on repositories the user can see. #2724

  • Added the ability to specify an upload for the single shot upload serializer. This allows to upload files in chunks and attach them with content in repositories without creating orphans. #2786

  • Added new access condition has_required_repo_perms_on_upload for RBAC plugins to use to require users to specify a repository when uploading content. If not used when uploading content, non-admin users will not be able to see their uploaded content if queryset scoping is enabled. #2796

Bugfixes

  • Reworked the ordering framework to use django-filters.

    Plugins should not declare filter-backends on viewsets. #2703

Improved Documentation

  • Updated plugin writers RBAC guide to explain more roles and less permissions. Removed mentions of django-guardian. #2463

  • Added docs on the expectation that all user-facing strings are i8ln wrapped with gettext, but log messages are not. #2477

Removals

  • The pulpcore.plugin.exceptions.MissingResource object has been removed. Instead let 404 errors propagate upwards for DRF to handle, or use the DRF exception NotFound. #1812

  • Removed django-guardian from the stack. This includes the removal of AutoDeleteObjPermsMixin from the plugin api. #2051

  • Removed the custom_file_object argument to pulpcore.plugin.download.BaseDownloader. Now all downloaded data will be written to a random file in the current working directory. Further customization of where downloaded data can be written to can be done through subclassing. #2137

  • Constructor signature of DigestValidationError and SizeValidationError has changed - the “actual” and “expected” values are now required and “url” which was previously a positional argument is now a keyword argument. #2244

  • The pulpcore.plugin.constants.API_ROOT has been removed. Use the V3_API_ROOT and V3_API_ROOT_NO_FRONT_SLASH settings instead. #2556

  • Plugins using the SingleArtifactContentUploadSerializer must place a super call when overwriting deferred_validate. They can only assume the existance of the Artifact in the database, after this call. #2786

Misc

3.19.0 (2022-04-12)

REST API

Features

  • Content app now logs where it gets on-demand and streamed content from. #2059

  • Reclaim disk space can now accept [“*”] for repo_hrefs to specify all repositories for reclaim. #2065

  • Added a filter to allow searching for user roles by their description. #2276

  • Add swagger view and make OpenAPI human readable #2291

  • Adds a TASK_DIAGNOSTICS setting which will enable each task to write out diagnostic information such as memory usage of the task to a data file in /var/tmp/pulp/<task_UUID>/. This is disabled by default. #2329

  • Added a /pulp/api/v3/distributions/ endpoint to list all distributions. #2379

Bugfixes

  • Added reason for 404 error when accessing distributions without a publication. #1910

  • Fixed validation order of required settings to occur before plugin settings are loaded. #1968

  • Fix delete repository version causing “duplicate key value violates unique constraint” error. #2047

  • Fixed two instances of Pulp not writing to the task worker’s temporary directory. #2061

  • Reduced memory usage during tasks like sync by holding fewer objects in-memory unnecessarily. #2069

  • Fixed migration 0064_add_new_style_task_columns to purge extraneous ReservedResource and TaskReservedResource entries, which could block sync and publish tasks post-upgrade.

    Also taught the migration to bulk-update the Task changes. In large installations, this should have a positive impact on the time it takes to apply the migration. #2101

  • Taught task-purge to process tasks in batches of 1000. This prevents large purges from using large amounts of memory as a result of reading all the affected Tasks into memory at once. #2215

  • This fix prevents the lost track of a content removed version when deleting a repository version that deletes a content that is added back in the subsequent version, but deleted again in a later version. #2267

  • Added transactions around repository version operations to prevent data loss. #2268

  • Loosened the version-restrictions on PulpImport to only require X.Y matching. #2269

  • Fix a mistake in a previous migration which may have caused improperly encrypted remote fields. #2327

  • Fixed improper fields being listed in RepositoryVersion repair API. #2330

  • Fixes duplicate key error Key (content_artifact_id, remote_id) when creating RemoteArtifacts during syncs in pulp_container and possibly other plugins. #2381

  • Declared proper dependency on user model in migration 0040. #2403

  • Fixed a rare deadlock when sync’ing overlapping content in high-concurrency envs. #2420

  • Fixed a (rare) deadlock around bulk_update() during syncs with overlapping content. #2430

  • Fixed a bug where notifications to workers may go unnoticed. This may lead to idle workers while there are tasks waiting. #2506

Improved Documentation

  • Updates and revises docs on webserver based authentication. #2260

  • Adds docs on recording and building graphs from the memory data saved by the TASK_DIAGNOSTICS setting. #2329

Removals

  • Removed the Django UI Admin site. It was added to provide RBAC permissions management before there were APIs that could provide that. It was tech preview and now there are APIs for user and group management, along with role and permission assignment. It is being removed because the direct DB access it provides has caused some issues for users, especially since its not integrated with the validation provided by Django Rest Framework, which Pulp uses. #2374

Plugin API

Features

  • Exposed the PulpRemoteUserAuthentication class to plugin writers. This will allow the use of remote authentication methods when building protected endpoints. #2262

  • Added new global access conditions has_publication_param_model_or_obj_perms and has_repo_or_repo_ver_param_model_or_obj_perms for RBAC checks. #2364

  • Changed the reusable_conditions module configuration for access policies to being a list to enable plugins to add custom modules to it. #2495

Bugfixes

  • Adjusted the default size of the queues between pipelines to be 1 instead of 1000. The batchers in the stage will still accumulate up to 500 (by default) items so batching is still in-effect there where it matters. #2069

3.18.15 (2023-03-09)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Added a start_repository_version parameter to the file system exporter.

    If specified, it will export only content units that differed between two repository versions. #3413

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.18.5 (2022-05-10)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Taught PulpImport to stream imports rather than reading files into memory in one chunk.

    This largely alleviates the memory-pressure that results from importing multiple large repositories in parallel. #2307

  • Fixed does_batch method in sync pipeline to allow waiting on content that is already resolved. #2557

  • Ensure downloader resets file on retry. #2576

3.18.4 (2022-04-12)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Fixed two instances of Pulp not writing to the task worker’s temporary directory. #2061

  • Taught task-purge to process tasks in batches of 1000. This prevents large purges from using large amounts of memory as a result of reading all the affected Tasks into memory at once. #2215

  • Declared proper dependency on user model in migration 0040. #2403

  • Fixed a rare deadlock when sync’ing overlapping content in high-concurrency envs. #2420

Plugin API

Bugfixes

  • Adjusted the default size of the queues between pipelines to be 1 instead of 1000. The batchers in the stage will still accumulate up to 500 (by default) items so batching is still in-effect there where it matters. #2069

3.18.2 (2022-03-18)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Fix delete repository version causing “duplicate key value violates unique constraint” error. #2047

  • Fixed migration 0064_add_new_style_task_columns to purge extraneous ReservedResource and TaskReservedResource entries, which could block sync and publish tasks post-upgrade.

    Also taught the migration to bulk-update the Task changes. In large installations, this should have a positive impact on the time it takes to apply the migration. #2101

  • This fix prevents the lost track of a content removed version when deleting a repository version that deletes a content that is added back in the subsequent version, but deleted again in a later version. #2267

  • Return a concise message exception on 500 in case file is missing on the FS. #2187

  • Fixed import/export of repositories with sub-content.

    An example would be the sub-repositories in pulp_rpm DistributionTrees. #2192

  • touch() now uses standard Django instead of raw-sql to update. #2229

Misc

Plugin API

Features

3.17.0 (2021-12-14)

REST API

Features

  • Added a /tasks/purge/ API to do bulk-deletion of old tasks.

    Over time, the database can fill with task-records. This API allows an installation to bulk-remove records based on their completion timestamps.

    NOTE: this endpoint is in tech-preview and may change in backwards incompatible ways in the future. #8554

  • Added a role model to support RBAC and the utility functions assign_role and remove_role.

    The field permissions_assignment of access policies has been renamed to creation_hooks. A compatibility patch has been added to be removed with pulpcore=3.20.

    The permissions argument to creation_hooks has been deprecated to be removed with pulpcore=3.20. #9411

  • Added views to assign model and object level roles to users and groups. #9413

  • Rewrote existing access policies on viewsets to use roles. #9415

  • Added validation to prevent credentials in remote urls. Also added data migration to move credentials out of remote url and into remote username/password fields for existing remotes. #9459

  • Reworked RBAC Content Guards to now use roles. Added new endpoints {list, add, remove}_roles and my_permissions to the RBAC content guard viewset. #9498

  • Content-type and Content-disposition headers are now sent in the AzureStorage.url. #9518

  • SigningService scripts can now access the public key fingerprint using the PULP_SIGNING_KEY_FINGERPRINT environment variable. This allows for more generic scripts, that do not need to “guess” (hardcode) what key they should use. #9532

  • Added object specific endpoints {list,add}_roles, remove_roles and my_permissions to tasks and groups viewsets. #9604

  • Added a reset endpoint to the access policy viewset to revert to the provided default uncustomized access policy. #9606

Bugfixes

  • PulpImporter now unpacks into the task-worker’s working directory rather than /tmp. Unpacking large files into /tmp could cause the operation to fail, or even cause stability issues for Pulp instance, due to running /tmp out of space. #8610

  • Missing worker records are now kept in the database for seven days allowing time for post-mortem analysis of them. The user-facing data in the status API remains unmodified. #8988

  • Made Pulp to be fault-tolerant to Redis server connection issues. #8997

  • Added documentation for DB_ENCRYPTION_KEY setting. #9495

  • Fixed the path to uploaded artifacts. #9527

Removals

  • The pulpcore-worker binary no longer accepts the --resource-manager flag. There is no resource manager anymore, so this flag is no longer needed. #9327

  • Removed tech previewed assign_permission and remove_permission endpoints from RBAC content guard viewset. #9498

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Added get_objects_for_user to support queryset filtering by roles. Added hooks in AutoAddObjPermsMixin to support auto-assignment of roles.

    Changed the lookup for creation hooks so hooks need to be registered in REGISTERED_CREATION_HOOKS on the model to be used. The signature for creation hooks that are registered must match the exploded version of the dict parameters from the access policy. Unregistered creation hooks are deprecated and support will be dropped in pulpcore 3.20. #9411

  • Made RepositoryAddRemoveContentSerializer available for plugin writers. #9504

  • Added ability to pass headers through the AzureStorage.url. #9518

  • Handler._serve_content_artifact method accepts new positional argument request. #9595

  • Added Group model to plugin api. Added RolesMixin to for viewsets to allow managing object roles based on permissions. #9604

  • Added new async sign method asign to the SigningService model. #9615

  • SigningService.sign and SigningService.asign now accepts a env_var parameter that makes it possible to pass environment variables to the signing script. #9621

  • Ensured that with the removal of ACS its’ hidden repositories are removed as well. #9417

  • Taught a remote-artifact error path to not assume ‘filename’ was valid for all content. #9427

  • Taught several more codepaths to order-before-update to avoid deadlocks. #9441

Improved Documentation

  • Added an architecture diagram to the components page. #7692

  • Fixed a note saying where to find versioning details. #8859

  • Removed deprecated uses of MEDIA_ROOT. #9100

Removals

  • Removed the legacy tasking system and the USE_NEW_WORKER_TYPE setting. #9157

  • Removed OpenAPI browsable API #9322

  • Updated the pulp import creation endpoint to return a task group instead of a task. #9382

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Added optional stage for Alternate Content Source support. #8748

  • AlternateContentSource has a new class variable REMOTE_TYPES that it will use to validate the type of remote set on the ACS. #9375

  • Added pulpcore.plugin.viewset.TaskGroupResponse which can be used to return a reference to a task group created in a viewset. Added pulpcore.plugin.serializers.TaskGroupResponseSerializer which can be used to indicate the serializer response format of viewsets that will use TaskGroupResponse similar to how AsyncOperationResponseSerializer is used. #9380

  • Added the pulpcore.plugin.tasking.general_multi_delete that deletes a list of model instances in a transaction. #9417

  • Exposed tasks general_create, general_create_from_temp_file, general_delete, general_update, orphan_cleanup, and reclaim_space in the plugin api. #9418

  • ALLOW_SHARED_TASK_RESOURCES is now enabled by default. If all goes smoothly, this will become permanent and the setting will be removed in the next release. #9474

Bugfixes

  • Set the default widget type to JSONWidget for JSONFields for Model Resources to fix django-import-export bug where django.db.models.JSONFields weren’t properly handled. #9307

  • PATCH/PUT/DELETE calls for the ACS are asynchronous and trigger a task. #9374

Removals

  • Removed the deprecated reserved_resources_record__resource filter for Task. Use reserved_resources_record__contains instead. #9157

  • Removed drf-access-policy workaround for condition/condition_expession. #9163

  • Removed ACS path validation. Plugins should now define validate_paths on their ACS serializer to validate paths. #9340

  • Renamed TaskGroupResponse to TaskGroupOperationResponse and TaskGroupResponseSerializer to TaskGroupOperationResponseSerializer in order to avoid conflicts with responses from task groups endpoints. #9425

  • The resources argument of dispatch() has been removed. exclusive_resources and shared_resources should be used instead. #9477

  • ContentSaver._pre_save() and ContentSaver._post_save() must now be implemented as synchronous functions rather than coroutines. #9478

3.15.9 (2022-06-28)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Restore multiple-retry logic for PulpImport. #2854

Misc

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.15.8 (2022-04-12)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Fixed file descriptior leak during upload. #2087

  • Fixed a bug in pulpcore-worker, where wakeup and cancel signals could be lost due to a race condition. #2144

  • Fixed a bug where notifications to workers may go unnoticed. This may lead to idle workers while there are tasks waiting. #2506

  • Changed the pulpcore-worker to mark abandoned tasks as “failed” instead of “canceled”. #2532

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.15.7 (2022-03-25)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Reduced memory usage during tasks like sync by holding fewer objects in-memory unnecessarily. #2069

  • Fixes duplicate key error Key (content_artifact_id, remote_id) when creating RemoteArtifacts during syncs in pulp_container and possibly other plugins. #2381

  • Declared proper dependency on user model in migration 0040. #2403

  • Fixed a rare deadlock when sync’ing overlapping content in high-concurrency envs. #2420

Plugin API

Bugfixes

  • Adjusted the default size of the queues between pipelines to be 1 instead of 1000. The batchers in the stage will still accumulate up to 500 (by default) items so batching is still in-effect there where it matters. #2069

3.15.6 (2022-03-22)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Fix a mistake in a previous migration which may have caused improperly encrypted remote fields. #2327

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.15.5 (2022-03-15)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Fix delete repository version causing “duplicate key value violates unique constraint” error. #2047

  • Fix content summary showing incorrect count after previous version deletion. #2084

  • Fixed issue with listing repository versions after deleting previous versions. #2085

  • Fixed migration 0064_add_new_style_task_columns to purge extraneous ReservedResource and TaskReservedResource entries, which could block sync and publish tasks post-upgrade.

    Also taught the migration to bulk-update the Task changes. In large installations, this should have a positive impact on the time it takes to apply the migration. #2101

  • Taught PulpImport to retry in the event of a concurrency-collision on ContentArtifact. #2102

  • Fixed potential deadlock-window in touch() path. #2157

  • Fixed reporting tasks being canceled before being picked up by a worker as canceled instead of failed. #2183

  • Fixed import/export of repositories with sub-content.

    An example would be the sub-repositories in pulp_rpm DistributionTrees. #2192

  • touch() now uses standard Django instead of raw-sql to update. #2229

  • PulpImporter now unpacks into the task-worker’s working directory rather than /tmp. Unpacking large files into /tmp could cause the operation to fail, or even cause stability issues for Pulp instance, due to running /tmp out of space. #2247

  • This fix prevents the lost track of a content removed version when deleting a repository version that deletes a content that is added back in the subsequent version, but deleted again in a later version. #2267

  • Added transactions around repository version operations to prevent data loss. #2268

  • Fixed bug where the content app would stop working after a brief loss of connection to the database. #2293

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.15.4 (2022-01-28)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Fixed downloader retry logic with partially written files. #2078

  • Fixed bug where retries of partially downloaded files failed digest and size validation. #2135

  • Fixed the calculation of response range headers in streaming answers from the content app. #2147

  • Improved messaging around timeout requests. #2169

Misc

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.15.3 (2021-11-30)

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.15.2 (2021-09-02)

REST API

Features

  • Added encryption in the database for Remote fields username, password, proxy_username, proxy_password, and client_key. #8192

  • Added feature to reclaim disk space for a list of repositories. #8459

  • Added method field to filesystem exporters to customize how they export files. Users can now export files by writing them to the filesystem, using hardlinks, or using symlinks. #8695

  • Changed orphan cleanup task to be a non-blocking task that can be run at any time. Added a ORPHAN_PROTECTION_TIME setting that can be configured for how long orphan Content and Artifacts are kept before becoming candidates for deletion by the orphan cleanup task. #8824

  • Added a /v3/exporters/core/filesystem/ endpoint for exporting publications or repository versions to the filesystem. #8860

  • Added a periodical cleanup to the pulpcore-worker class to keep the Worker table clean. #8931

  • Added new content guard that uses RBAC policies to protect content #8940

  • Added authentication to the content app. #8951

  • A new setting ALLOW_SHARED_TASK_RESOURCES was temporarily added to allow plugins to use specific resources concurrently, during task execution. It defaults to False. It will switch to True with 3.16 and will eventually be removed. #9148

Bugfixes

  • In stages-pipeline and new-version sanity-checks, added full error-info on path-problems. #8133

  • Improved disk usage during the synchronization. #8295

  • Fixed an internal server error that was raised when a user provided invalid parameters while assigning new permissions to an object. #8500

  • Fixed a bug, where new tasks were assigned to dead workers. #8779

  • Fixed bug where content app would not respond to Range HTTP Header in requests when remote.policy was either on_demand or streamed. For example this request is used by Anaconda clients. #8865

  • Unpublished content can no longer be accessed from content app if publication based-plugin has defined their distributions as publication serving #8870

  • Fixed a bug that caused a serializer to ignore form data for pulp_labels. #8954

  • Fixed inability for users to disable RBAC at the settings level by changing the DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES like any user configuring a DRF project expects to. #8974

  • Fixed signal handling to properly kill a task when double ctrl-c is used to shut down a worker fast. #8986

  • Added an attempt to cancel a task if a worker needed to abort it on graceful shutdown. #8987

  • Fixed a bug where on-demand downloads would fill up /var/run/ by not deleting downloaded files. #9000

  • Fixed a regression preventing syncs from file:// urls. #9003

  • Removed ambiguity from the OpenAPI schema for Exports. The exported_resources are now a list of URI strings. #9008

  • Use proxy auth from Remote config to download content from a remote repository. #9024

  • Fixed the behavior of setting “repository” on a distribution for publication-based plugins. #9039

  • Set Redis connection information in status to null unless it’s used. Redis is needed for RQ tasking or content caching. #9070

  • Fixed server error when accessing invalid files from content app base directory #9074

  • Fixed improper validation of remotes’ URLs. #9080

  • Artifacts are now being properly updated for Content after switching from ‘on_demand’ to ‘immediate’. #9101

  • Made all database queries run serially using a single connection to the database. #9129

  • Move files to artifact storage only when they originate from WORKING_DIRECTORY. Copy files from all other sources. #9146

  • Content app now properly sets Content-Type header for artifacts being served from S3 #9216

  • Fixed repository sync performance regression introduced in pulpcore 3.14. #9243

  • Stop using insecure hash function blake2s for calculating 64 bit lock identifier from uuid. #9249

  • Fixed another occurence of the HTTP 500 error and connection already closed in the logs while accessing content. #9275

Removals

  • Dropped support for Python 3.6 and 3.7. Pulp now supports Python 3.8+. #8855

  • Renamed the retained_versions field on repositories to retain_repo_versions. #9030

Deprecations

  • The traditional tasking system (formerly the default in pulpcore<=3.13) is deprecated and will be removed in pulpcore==3.16. If you are using the USE_NEW_WORKER_TYPE=False that will no longer give you the traditional tasking system starting with pulpcore==3.16. #9159

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Content model has a new boolean class constant PROTECTED_FROM_RECLAIM for plugins to enable the reclaim disk space feature provided by core. #8459

  • Added endpoints for managing Alternate Content Sources. #8607

  • Orphan cleanup task has a new optional parameter orphan_protection_time that decides for how long Pulp will hold orphan Content and Artifacts before they become candidates for deletion for this particular orphan cleanup task. #8824

  • Distribution model has a new boolean class variable SERVE_FROM_PUBLICATION for plugins to declare whether their distributions serve from publications or directly from repository versions #8870

  • The settings file switched DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES to use AccessPolicyFromDB instead of IsAdminUser with a fallback to a behavior of IsAdminUser. With this feature plugin writers no longer need to declare permission_classes on their Views or Viewsets to use AccessPolicyFromDB. #8974

  • Upgraded django from 2.2 to 3.2. #9018

  • pulpcore.plugin.models.ProgressReport now has async interfaces: asave(), aincrease_by(), aincrement(), __aenter__(), _aexit__(). Plugins should switch to the async interfaces in their Stages. pulpcore.plugin.sync.sync_to_async_iterator is a utility method to synchronize the database queries generated when a QuerySet is iterated. #9129

  • Added shared_resources to the dispatch call, so tasks can run concurrently if they need overlapping resources for read only. #9148

  • Added touch to Artifact and Content query sets for bulk operation. #9234

  • Added ContentManager to the plugin API - all subclasses of Content that add their own custom manager should have the manager subclass ContentManager. #9269

Bugfixes

  • Added kwarg to RemoteArtifactSaver init to allow enabling handling of rare error edge-case.

    fix_mismatched_remote_artifacts=True enables workaround for a failure-scenario that (so far) is only encountered by pulp_rpm. Current behavior is the default. #8133

Removals

  • Removed the pulpcore.plugin.viewsets.NewDistributionFilter. Instead use pulpcore.plugin.viewsets.DistributionFilter. #8479

  • Removed FilesystemExporterSerializer and PublicationExportSerializer from the plugin api. Filesystem exports are now handled by pulpcore. #8860

  • The pulpcore.plugin.download.http_giveup method has been removed from the plugin API. Plugins used to have to use this to wrap the _run method defined on subclasses of HttpDownloader, but starting with pulpcore 3.14 the backoff is implemented directly in the HttpDownloader.run() method which subclasses do not override. Due to pulpcore implementing it, it is no longer needed or available for plugins to use. #8913

Deprecations

  • ContentSaver._pre_save() and ContentSaver._post_save() hooks are no longer coroutines. They should be implemented as synchronous functions. #9129

  • Deprecate the compatibility layer for access policies. As of pulpcore 3.16, all plugins should properly use the “condition” and “condition_expression” fields in the access policy statements. #9160

  • Deprecate the resources argument of dispatch in favor of exclusive_resources and shared_resources. #9257

3.14.0 (2021-07-01)

REST API

Features

  • Introduce new worker style. (tech-preview) #8501

  • Added new endpoint /pulp/api/v3/orphans/cleanup/. When called with POST and no parameters it is equivalent to calling DELETE /pulp/api/v3/orphans/. Additionally the optional parameter content_hrefs can be specified and must contain a list of content hrefs. When content_hrefs is specified, only those content units will be considered to be removed by orphan cleanup. #8658

  • Content app responses are now smartly cached in Redis. #8805

  • Downloads from remote sources will now be retried on more kinds of errors, such as HTTP 500 or socket errors. #8881

  • Add a correlation id filter to the task list endpoint. #8891

  • Where before download_concurrency would previously be set to a default value upon creation, it will now be set NULL (but a default value will still be used). #8897

  • Added graceful shutdown to pulpcore workers. #8930

  • Activate the new task worker type by default.

    Warning

    If you intend to stick with the old tasking system, you should configure the USE_NEW_WORKER_TYPE setting to false before upgrade

    #8948

Bugfixes

  • Fixed race condition where a task could clean up reserved resources shared with another task. #8637

  • Altered redirect URL escaping, preventing invalidation of signed URLs for artifacts using cloud storage. #8670

  • Add an update row lock on in task dispatching for ReservedResource to prevent a race where an object was deleted that was supposed to be reused. This prevents a condition where tasks ended up in waiting state forever. #8708

  • Retry downloads on ClientConnectorSSLError, which appears to be spuriously returned by some CDNs. #8867

  • Fixed OpenAPI schema tag generation for resources that are nested more than 2 levels.

    This change is most evident in client libraries generated from the OpenAPI schema.

    Prior to this change, the API client for a resource located at /api/v3/pulp/exporters/core/pulp/<uuid>/exports/ was named ExportersCoreExportsApi.

    After this change, the API client for a resource located at /api/v3/pulp/exporters/core/pulp/<uuid>/exports/ is named ExportersPulpExportsApi. #8868

  • Fixed request schema for /pulp/api/v3/repair/, which did identify any arguments. This also fixes the bindings. #8869

  • Update default access policies in the database if they were unmodified by the administrator. #8883

  • Pinning to psycopg2 < 2.9 as psycopg 2.9 doesn’t work with django 2.2. More info at https://github.com/django/django/commit/837ffcfa681d0f65f444d881ee3d69aec23770be. #8926

  • Fixed bug where artifacts and content were not always saved in Pulp with each on_demand request serviced by content app. #8980

Improved Documentation

  • Fixed a number of link-problems in the installation/ section of docs. #6837

  • Added a troubleshooting section to the docs explaining how to find stuck tasks. #8774

  • Moved existing basic auth docs to a new top-level section named Authentication. #8800

  • Moved Webserver Authentication docs under the top-level Authentication section. #8801

  • Provide instructions to use Keycloak authenication using Python Social Aauth #8803

  • Separated hardware and Filesystem information from the Architecture section and added them to the Installation section. #8947

  • Added sub-headings and simplified language of Pulp concept section. #8949

Deprecations

  • Deprecated the DELETE /pulp/api/v3/orphans/ call. Instead use the POST /pulp/api/v3/orphans/cleanup/ call. #8876

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Added the pulpcore.plugin.viewsets.DistributionFilter. This should be used instead of pulpcore.plugin.viewsets.NewDistributionFilter. #8480

  • Added user_hidden field to Repository to hide repositories from users. #8487

  • Added a timestamp_of_interest field to Content and Artifacts. This field can be updated by calling a new method touch() on Artifacts and Content. Plugin writers should call this method whenever they deal with Content or Artifacts. For example, this includes places where Content is uploaded or added to Repository Versions. This will prevent Content and Artifacts from being cleaned up when orphan cleanup becomes a non-blocking task in pulpcore 3.15. #8823

  • Exposed AsyncUpdateMixin through pulpcore.plugin.viewsets. #8844

  • Added a field DEFAULT_MAX_RETRIES to the Remote base class - plugin writers can override the default number of retries attempted when file downloads failed for each type of remote. The default value is 3. #8881

  • Added a field DEFAULT_DOWNLOAD_CONCURRENCY to the Remote base class - plugin writers can override the number of concurrent downloads for each type of remote. The default value is 10. #8897

Bugfixes

  • Fixed OpenAPI schema tag generation for resources that are nested more than 2 levels.

    This change is most evident in client libraries generated from the OpenAPI schema.

    Prior to this change, the API client for a resource located at /api/v3/pulp/exporters/core/pulp/<uuid>/exports/ was named ExportersCoreExportsApi.

    After this change, the API client for a resource located at /api/v3/pulp/exporters/core/pulp/<uuid>/exports/ is named ExportersPulpExportsApi. #8868

Removals

  • The usage of non-JSON serializable types of args and kwargs to tasks is no longer supported. uuid.UUID objects however will silently be converted to str. #8501

  • Removed the versions_containing_content method from the pulpcore.plugin.models.RepositoryVersion` object. Instead use RepositoryVersion.objects.with_content(). #8729

  • Removed pulpcore.plugin.stages.ContentUnassociation from the plugin API. #8827

Deprecations

  • The pulpcore.plugin.viewsets.NewDistributionFilter is deprecated and will be removed from a future release. Instead use pulpcore.plugin.viewsets.DistributionFilter. #8480

  • Deprecate the use of the reserved_resources_record__resource in favor of reserved_resources_record__contains. Tentative removal release is pulpcore==3.15. #8501

  • Plugin writers who create custom downloaders by subclassing HttpDownloader no longer need to wrap the _run() method with a backoff decorator. Consequntly the http_giveup handler the sake of the backoff decorator is no longer needed and has been deprecated. It is likely to be removed in pulpcore 3.15. #8881

  • Added security disclosures ref to homepage #8584

  • Add sequential steps for storage docs #8597

  • Updated signing service workflow. Removed old deprecation warning. #8609

REST API

Features

  • Add support for automatic publishing and distributing. #7626

  • Add a warning at startup time if there are remote artifacts with checksums but no allowed checksums. #7985

  • Added support in content app for properly handling unknown or forbidden digest errors. #7989

  • Added sync check that raises error when only forbidden checksums are found for on-demand content. #8423

  • Added ability for users to delete repo version 0 as long as they still have at least one repo version for their repo. #8454

Bugfixes

  • Added asynchronous tasking to the Update and Delete endpoints of PulpExporter to provide proper locking on resources. #7438

  • Fixed a scenario where canceled tasks could be marked failed. #7980

  • Taught PulpImport correct way to find and import RepositoryVersions. Previous implementation only worked for RepositoryVersions that were the ‘current’ version of the exported Repository. #8116

  • Distributions are now viewable again at the base url of the content app #8475

  • Fixed a path in artifact_stages that could lead to sync-failures in pulp_container. #8489

Improved Documentation

  • Update docs with guide how to change ‘ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS’ setting using ‘pulpcore-manager handle-artifact-checksums –report’ if needed. #8325

Removals

  • The Update and Delete endpoints of Exporters changed to now return 202 with tasks. #7438

  • Deprecation warnings are now being logged by default if the log level includes WARNING. This can be disabled by adjusting the log level of pulpcore.deprecation. See the deprecation docs for more information. #8499

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Added a new callback method to Repository named on_new_version(), which runs when a new repository version has been created. This can be used for e.g. automatically publishing or distributing a new repository version after it has been created. #7626

  • Added url as optional argument to DigestValidationError and SizeValidationError exceptions to log urls in the exception message. #8357

  • Added the following new objects related to a new Distribution MasterModel: * pulpcore.plugin.models.Distribution - A new MasterModel Distribution which replaces the pulpcore.plugin.models.BaseDistribution. This now contains the repository, repository_version, and publication fields on the MasterModel instead of on the detail models as was done with pulpcore.plugin.models.BaseDistribution. * pulpcore.plugin.serializer.DistributionSerializer - A serializer plugin writers should use with the new pulpcore.plugin.models.Distribution. * pulpcore.plugin.viewset.DistributionViewSet - The viewset that replaces the deprecated pulpcore.plugin.viewset.BaseDistributionViewSet. * pulpcore.plugin.viewset.NewDistributionFilter - The filter that pairs with the Distribution model. #8384

  • Added checksum type enforcement to pulpcore.plugin.download.BaseDownloader. #8435

  • Adds the pulpcore.plugin.tasking.dispatch interface which replaces the pulpcore.plugin.tasking.enqueue_with_reservation interface. It is the same except: * It returns a pulpcore.plugin.models.Task instead of an RQ object * It does not support the options keyword argument

    Additionally the pulpcore.plugin.viewsets.OperationPostponedResponse was updated to support both the dispatch and enqueue_with_reservation interfaces. #8496

Bugfixes

  • Allow plugins to unset the queryset_filtering_required_permission attribute in NamedModelViewSet. #8438

Removals

  • Removed checksum type filtering from pulpcore.plugin.models.Remote.get_downloader and pulpcore.plugin.stages.DeclarativeArtifact.download. #8435

Deprecations

  • The following objects were deprecated: * pulpcore.plugin.models.BaseDistribution – Instead use pulpcore.plugin.models.Distribution. * pulpcore.plugin.viewset.BaseDistributionViewSet – Instead use pulpcore.plugin.viewset.DistributionViewSet. * pulpcore.plugin.serializer.BaseDistributionSerializer – Instead use pulpcore.plugin.serializer.DistributionSerializer. * pulpcore.plugin.serializer.PublicationDistributionSerializer – Instead use define the publication field directly on your detail distribution object. See the docstring for pulpcore.plugin.serializer.DistributionSerializer for an example. * pulpcore.plugin.serializer.RepositoryVersionDistributionSerializer – Instead use define the repository_version field directly on your detail distribution object. See the docstring for pulpcore.plugin.serializer.DistributionSerializer for an example. * pulpcore.plugin.viewset.DistributionFilter – Instead use pulpcore.plugin.viewset.NewDistributionFilter.

    Note

    You will have to define a migration to move your data from pulpcore.plugin.models.BaseDistribution to pulpcore.plugin.models.Distribution. See the pulp_file migration 0009 as a reference example.

    #8385

  • Deprecated the pulpcore.plugin.tasking.enqueue_with_reservation. Instead use the pulpcore.plugin.tasking.dispatch interface. #8496

  • The usage of non-JSON serializable types of args and kwargs to tasks is deprecated. Future releases of pulpcore may discontinue accepting complex argument types. Note, UUID objects are not JSON serializable. A deprecated warning is logged if a non-JSON serializable is used. #8505

3.11.2 (2021-05-25)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Skip allowed content checks on collectstatic (backported from #8711) #8712

  • Fixed cleanup of UploadChunks when their corresponding Upload is deleted. (backported from #7316) #8757

  • Fixed compatibility with Django 2.2 LTS. Pulp now requires Django~=2.2.23 (backported from #8691) #8758

  • Pinned click~=7.1.2 to ensure RQ is compatible with it. #8767

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.11.1 (2021-04-29)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a race condition that sometimes surfaced during handling of reserved resources. #8632

  • Handled a tasking race condition where cleaning up resource reservations sometimes raised an IntegrityError. #8648

Plugin API

Bugfixes

  • Allow plugins to unset the queryset_filtering_required_permission attribute in NamedModelViewSet. #8444

3.11.0 (2021-03-15)

REST API

Features

  • Raise error when syncing content with a checksum not included in ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS. #7854

  • User can evaluate how many content units are affected with checksum type change with ‘pulpcore-manager handle-artifact-checksums –report’. #7986

  • The fields proxy_username and proxy_password have been added to remotes. Credentials can no longer be specified as part of the proxy_url. A data migration will move the proxy auth information on existing remotes to the new fields. #8167

  • Added the WORKER_TTL setting, that specifies the interval a worker is considered missing after its last heartbeat. #8291

  • Due to the removal of md5 and sha1 from the ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS setting, every system that had any Artifacts synced in in prior to 3.11 will have to run the pulpcore-manager handle-content-checksums command. A data migration is provided with 3.11 that will run this automatically as part of the pulpcore-manager migrate command all upgrades must run anyway. #8322

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a bug experienced by the migration plugin where all content objects are assumed to have a remote associated with them. #7876

  • Restored inadvertently-changed content-guards API to its correct endpoint.

    In the process of adding generic list-endpoints, the /pulp/api/v3/contentguards API was inadvertently rehomed to /pulp/api/v3/content_guards. This change restores it to its published value. #8283

  • Added headers field to the list of fields in the RemoteSerializer base class and marked it optional to make it accessible via the REST api. #8330

  • Fixed AccessPolicy AttributeError. #8395

Improved Documentation

  • Removed correlation id feature from tech preview. #7927

  • Removed ‘tech preview’ label from handle-artifact-checksums command.

    handle-artifact-checksums is now a fully-supported part of Pulp3. #7928

  • Added a warning banner to the ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS setting section indicating the setting is not fully enforcing in pulpcore code and various plugins. #8342

Removals

  • The component field of the versions section of the status API `/pulp/api/v3/status/ now lists the Django app name, not the Python package name. Similarly the OpenAPI schema at /pulp/api/v3 does also. #8198

  • Removed sensitive fields username, password, and client_key from Remote responses. These fields can still be set and updated but will no longer be readable. #8202

  • Adjusted the ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS setting to remove md5 and sha1 since they are insecure. Now, by default, the ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS contain sha224, sha256, sha384, and sha512. #8246

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Allow developers to use more than one WorkingDirectory() within a task, including nested calls. Tasks will also now use a temporary working directory by default. #7815

  • Added the pulpcore.app.pulp_hashlib module which provides the new function and ensures only allowed hashers listed in ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS can be instantiated. Plugin writers should use this instead of hashlib.new to generate checksum hashers. #7984

  • Add a get_content method to pulpcore.plugin.models.RepositoryVersion that accepts a queryset and returns a list of content in that repository using the given queryset. This allows for specific content type to be returned by executing repo_version.get_content(content_qs=MyContentType.objects). #8375

Improved Documentation

  • Added docs identifying plugin writers to use the pulpcore.app.pulp_hashlib module which provides the new function and ensures only allowed hashers can be instantiated. This should be used in place of hashlib.new. #7984

  • The use of tempdir.TemporaryDirectory in tasks has been documented. #8231

Removals

  • Adjusted the ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS setting to remove md5 and sha1 since they are insecure. Now, by default, the ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS contain sha224, sha256, sha384, and sha512. #8246

  • Removed unused get_plugin_storage_path method. #8343

  • It is not longer possible to address AccessPolicy via the viewset’s classname. Viewset’s urlpattern should be used instead. #8397

  • Removed deprecated key field returned by the signing service. Plugin writers must now refer directly to the public_key field on the signing service object. #8398

Deprecations

  • pulpcore.plugin.tasking.WorkingDirectory has been deprecated. #8231

3.10.0 (2021-02-04)

REST API

Features

  • Change the default deployment layout

    This changes the default deployment layout. The main change is that MEDIA_ROOT gets its own directory. This allows limiting the file permissions in a shared Pulp 2 + Pulp 3 deployment and the SELinux file contexts. Another benefit is compatibility with django_extensions’ unreferenced_files command which lists all files in MEDIA_ROOT that are not in the database.

    Other paths are kept on the same absolute paths. The documentation is updated to show the latest best practices. #7178

  • Added general endpoints to list Content, ContentGuards, and Repositories. #7204

  • Added /importers/core/pulp/import-check/ to validate import-parameters. #7549

  • Added a new field called public_key to SigningService. This field preserves the value of the public key. In addition to that, the field fingerprint was introduced as well. This field identifies the public key. #7700

  • Added possibility to filter users and groups by various fields. #7975

  • Added pulp_labels to allow users to add key/value data to objects. #8065

  • Added pulp_label_select filter to allow users to filter by labels. #8067

  • Added optional headers field to the aiohttp ClientSession. #8083

  • Allow querying names on the api using name__icontains, name__contains and name__startswith query parameters. #8094

  • Added RBAC to the endpoint for managing groups. #8159

  • Added RBAC to the endpoint for managing group users. #8160

  • Added the AccessPolicy.customized field which if True indicates a user has modified the default AccessPolicy. #8182

  • Added filtering for access policies. #8189

  • As an authenticated user I can create and view artifacts. #8193

Bugfixes

  • Fixed bug where duplicate artifact error message was nondeterministic in displaying different error messages with different checksum types. Also, updated duplicate artifact error message to be more descriptive. #3387

  • Fixed Pulp import/export bug that occurs when sha384 or sha512 is not in ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS. #7836

  • X-CSRFToken is not sent through ajax requests (PUT) in api.html. Fixed by setting the right value in the JS code. #7888

  • Provide a mechanism to automatically resolve issues and prevent deadlocks when Redis experiences data loss (such as a restart). #7912

  • Silence unnecessary log messages from django_guid which were spamming up the logs. #7982

  • Changed the default permission class to IsAdminUser to protect endpoints not yet guarded by an access policy from users without permission. #8018

  • Fixed apidoc bug, where model and object permissions on groups overlapped. #8033

  • Fixed the viewset_name used by access policy for the cases when parent_viewset is involved. #8152

  • Made the viewset_name property of access policies read only. #8185

Improved Documentation

  • Added a description of the common filesystem layout in the deployment section. #7750

  • Updated the reference to the new location of pulplift at the installer repository in the development section. #7878

  • Add links to plugin docs into docs.pulpproject.org. #8131

  • Added documentation for labels. #8157

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Add rate_limit option to Remote #7965

  • Made DistributionFilter accessible to plugin writers. #8059

  • Adding Label and LabelSerializer to the plugin api. #8065

  • Added LabelSelectFilter to filter resources by labels. #8067

  • Added ReadOnlyRepositoryViewset to the plugin API. #8103

  • Added NAME_FILTER_OPTIONS to the plugin API to gain more consistency across plugins when filter by name or similar CharFields. #8117

  • Added has_repo_attr_obj_perms and has_repo_attr_model_or_obj_perms to the global access checks available to all plugins to use. #8161

Removals

  • Plugins are required to define a version attribute on their subclass of PulpPluginAppConfig. Starting with pulpcore==3.10, if undefined while Pulp loads, Pulp will refuse to start. #7930

  • Changed the default permission class to from IsAuthenticated to IsAdminUser. Any endpoints that should be accessible by all known to the system users need to specify the permission_classes accordingly. #8018

  • pulpcore.plugin.models.UnsupportedDigestValidationError has been removed. Plugins should look for this at pulpcore.plugin.exceptions.UnsupportedDigestValidationError instead. #8169

Deprecations

  • Access to the path of the public key of a signing service was deprecated. The value of the public key is now expected to be saved in the model instance as SigningService.public_key. #7700

  • The pulpcore.plugin.storage.get_plugin_storage_path() method has been deprecated. #7935

3.9.1 (2021-01-21)

REST API

Removals

  • CHUNKED_UPLOAD_DIR was converted to a relative path inside MEDIA_ROOT. #8099

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.9.0 (2020-12-07)

REST API

Features

  • Made uploaded chunks to be stored as separate files in the default storage. This feature removes the need for a share storage of pulp api nodes, as the chunks are now stored individually in the shared storage and are therefore accessible by all nodes. #4498

  • Add support for logging messages with a correlation id that can either be autogenerated or passed in with a Correlation-ID header. This feature is provided as a tech preview in pulpcore 3.9. #4689

  • Added progress reporting for pulp imports. #6559

  • Exposed aiohttp.ClientTimeout fields in Remote as connect_timeout, sock_connect_timeout, sock_read_timeout, and total_timeout.

    This replaces the previous hard-coded 600 second timeout for sock_connect and sock_read, giving per-Remote control of all four ClientTimeout fields to the user. #7201

  • Enabled users to add checksums to ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS by allowing them to populate checksums with handle-artifact-checksums command. #7561

  • Added version information to api docs. #7569

  • Made signing services to be immutable. This requires content signers to create a new signing service explicitly when a change occurs. #7701

  • Added support for repairing Pulp by detecting and redownloading missing or corrupted artifact files. Sending a POST request to /pulp/api/v3/repair/ will trigger a task that scans all artifacts for missing and corrupted files in Pulp storage, and will attempt to redownload them from the original remote. Specifying verify_checksums=False when POSTing to the same endpoint will skip checking the hashes of the files (corruption detection) and will instead just look for missing files.

    The verify_checksums POST parameter was added to the existing “repository version repair” endpoint as well. #7755

  • Added check to prevent Pulp to start if there are Artifacts with forbidden checksums. #7914

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a serious bug data integrity bug where some Artifact files could be silently deleted from storage in specific circumstances. #7676

  • Moved the initial creation of access_policies to post_migrate signal. This enforces their existance both with migrate and flush. #7710

  • Fixed incremental export to happen if start_version provided, even if last_export is null. #7716

  • Fixed a file descriptor leak during repository version repair operations. #7735

  • Fixed bug where exporter directory existed and was writable but not owned by worker process and thus not chmod-able. #7829

  • Properly namespaced the viewset_name in AccessPolicy to avoid naming conflicts in plugins. #7845

  • Update jquery version from 3.3.1 to 3.5.1 in API.html template. It is the version provided by djangorestframework~=3.12.2 #7850

  • Prevented a Redis failure scenario from causing the tasking system to back up due to “tasking system locks” not being released, even on worker restart. #7907

  • Use subclassed plugin downloaders during the pulp repair. #7909

Improved Documentation

  • Added requirement to record a demo with PRs of substantial change. #7703

  • Removed outdated reference stating Pulp did not have an SELinux policy. #7793

Removals

  • The local file system directory used for uploaded chunks is specified by the setting CHUNKED_UPLOAD_DIR. Users are encouraged to remove all uncommitted uploaded files before applying this change. #4498

Misc

Plugin API

Features

  • Added pre_save hook to Artifact to enforce checksum rules implied by ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS. #7696

  • Enabled plugin writers to retrieve a request object from a serializer when look ups are performed from within the task serializer. #7718

  • Expose ProgressReportSerializer through pulpcore.plugin #7759

  • Allowed plugin writers to access the models Upload and UploadChunk #7833

  • Exposed pulpcore.plugin.constants.ALL_KNOWN_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS. #7897

  • Added UnsupportedDigestValidationError to pulpcore.plugins.exceptions. Going forward, plugin authors can expect to find all unique exceptions under pulpcore.plugin.exceptions. #7908

Deprecations

  • Plugins are encouraged to define a version attribute on their subclass of PulpPluginAppConfig. If undefined while Pulp loads a warning is now shown to encourage plugin writers to implement this attribute, which will be required starting in pulpcore==3.10. #6671

  • Using the ViewSet’s classname to identify its AccessPolicy has been deprecated and is slated for removal in 3.10. Instead the urlpattern is supposed to be used.

    Plugins with existing AccessPolicies should add a data migration to rename their AccessPolicies:

    ::

    access_policy = AccessPolicy.get(viewset_name=”MyViewSet”) access_policy.viewset_name = “objectclass/myplugin/myclass” access_policy.save()

    #7845

  • The pulpcore.plugin.models.UnsupportedDigestValidationError is being deprecated and will be removed in 3.10.

    It can now be found at pulpcore.plugin.exceptions.UnsupportedDigestValidationError instead; please change any code that imports it to access it from its new location. #7908

3.8.1 (2020-10-30)

REST API

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a serious bug data integrity bug where some Artifact files could be silently deleted from storage in specific circumstances. (Backported from #7676) #7758

Plugin API

No significant changes.

3.8.0 (2020-10-20)

REST API

Features

  • Added check to prevent users from adding checksums to ALLOWED_CONTENT_CHECKSUMS if there are Artifacts without those checksums. #7487

  • Django admin site URL is configurable via ADMIN_SITE_URL settings parameter. #7637

  • Always set a default for DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE. This means the services files don’t need to. #7720

Bugfixes

Note

Task names, e.g. pulpcore.app.tasks.orphan.orphan_cleanup, are subject to change in future releases 3.y releases. These are represented in the Task API as the “name” attribute. Please check future release notes to see when these names will be considered stable. Otherwise, the REST API pulpcore provides is considered semantically versioned.

Breaking Changes

Default port changes happened in the Ansible Installer for Pulp and pulpcore was updated to match with this PR. Existing installs are unaffected. This was done to avoid conflicts that would prevent Pulp from starting by default in many environments; the previous ports (8000 & 8080) are commonly used by management webGUIs, development webservers, etc.

Publications are now Master/Detail which causes any Publication URL endpoint to change. To give an example from pulp_file see the URL changes made here as an example. See plugin docs compatible with 3.0.0rc2 for more details.

Distributions are now Master/Detail which causes the Distribution URL endpoint to change. To give an example from pulp_file see the URL changes made in this PR as an example. See plugin docs compatible with 3.0.0rc2 for more details.

The semantics of Remote attributes ssl_ca_certificate, ssl_client_certificate, and ssl_client_key changed even though the field names didn’t. Now these assets are saved directly in the database instead of on the filesystem, and they are prevented from being read back out to users after being set for security reasons. This was done with these changes.
