[Pulp-dev] State of Pulp3 Settings

[Brian Bouterse]

I want to share an update on the state of settings in Pulp3.

Pulp uses dynaconf for settings. Dynaconf provides lots of ways to do this,
and Pulp recently enabled Pulp plugins to provide settings directly too.

# settings plugins set for their users
Plugins can now provide plugins programatically. See these docs:
https://docs.pulpproject.org/en/pulpcore-plugin/nightly/plugin-writer/concepts/index.html#plugin-settings

# end user settings
If a user wants to modify settings on a specific installation, they can use
any of the dynaconf facilities. The settings file and environment variable
approaches are the two we have documented currently. See the docs here:
https://docs.pulpproject.org/en/3.0/nightly/installation/configuration.html#by-configuration-file

Note we have a current bug in the settings which is causing the load order
to be useful in all cases which we also need to fix at some point.
