Pulp create non-mirrored repos

Creating new Pulp Repos which are not mirrored from the web

Lets assume I have created a package called drinda. I don't have any mirrors from the web I can source this from, I simply have a single RPM containing the software

Log into Pulp (requires a session to be established, by default, once per week)

pulp-admin login -u admin -p password

Create a blank repository

pulp-admin rpm repo create --repo-id=drinda --relative-url=oem/drinda/centos/7/x86_64 --serve-http=true --serve-https=false

Upload the file from /root into pulp

pulp-admin rpm repo uploads rpm --repo-id=drinda --file=/root/drinda-2.48.3-1.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm

Publish the repo

pulp-admin rpm repo publish run --repo-id=drinda

Update the repo metadata

For this example, we are using a higher level repo called "oem" containing lots of individual packages. This saves us from needing to establish lots of repo definition files for all the clients, instead all the packages live under the OEM directory tree.

cd /var/lib/pulp/published/yum/http/repos/oem/
createrepo --update -v .
