Applying Settings¶
Pulp uses dynaconf for its settings which allows you to configure Pulp settings using various ways:
Environment Variables - Enabled by default.
Configuration File - Disabled by default, but easy to enable.
Environment Variables¶
Configuration by specifying environment variables is enabled by default. Any
Setting can be configured using Dynaconf by prepending PULP_
to the setting
name. For example SECRET_KEY can be specified as the PULP_SECRET_KEY
environment variable. For example, in a shell you can use export
to set this:
export PULP_SECRET_KEY="This should be a 50 chars or longer unique secret!"
Configuration File¶
By default, Pulp does not read settings from a configuration file. Enable this by specifying the
PULP_SETTINGS
environment variable with the path to your configuration file. For example:
export PULP_SETTINGS=/etc/pulp/settings.py
Then you can specify settings with Python variable assignment in the /etc/pulp/settings.py
. For
example, you can specify SECRET_KEY with:
$ cat /etc/pulp/settings.py
SECRET_KEY="This should be a 50 chars or longer unique secret!"
In this example the settings file ends in “.py” so it needs to be valid Python, but it could use any dynaconf supported format.
Note
The configuration file and directories containing the configuration file must be readable by the
user Pulp runs as. If using SELinux, assign the system_u:object_r:pulpcore_etc_t:s0
label.
