The problem is I can’t seem to get Pulp to recognize my new importer. This is what my importer directory looks like. my_importer/|-- importer.py`-- __init__.py I’ve got some really basic code in my importer.py file and I’ve already added a types definition under /usr/lib/pulp/plugins/types followed by a ‘sudo -u apache pulp-manage-db’ call. from pulp.plugins.importer import Importer def entry_point(): return MyContentImporter, {} class MyContentImporter(Importer): @classmethod def metadata(cls): return { 'id' : 'my_importer', 'display_name' : 'My Artifact', 'types' : ['my_artifact'], } def validate_config(self, repo, config): return True, '' This is the error I’m getting. 2016-05-20 10:41:17,476 - ERROR - Exception occurred: href: /pulp/api/v2/repositories/ method: POST status: 400 error: The importer type my_importer does not exist traceback: None data: {u'args': [], u'error': {u'code': u'PLP1008', u'data': {u'importer_type_id': u'my_importer'}, u'description': u'The importer type my_importer does not exist', u'sub_errors': []}} Any help to get my importer to be recognized would be greatly appreciated.
