[Pulp-list] using ansible to install azure backend

[Briand, Sheldon]

Thanks Mike!  I’ll try that.  I hadn’t tried the other way yet.

Hi Sheldon,

FYI: A better solution in the meantime is to run the installer with the following variable set:
prereq_pip_packages:
  - Jinja2
  - django-storages[azure]

The current installer docs incorrectly document prereq_pip_packages, so I just submitted a PR<https://github.com/pulp/pulp_installer/pull/566> to correct them.


I also wrote up a task for us to implement a better way of installing it into the installer.
(Also to document usage variables in the installer docs.)

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your reply.  I will try doing it manually using the pip environment and let everyone know how it goes.

I agree with @daviddavis. I think the installer would benefit from docs on how to configure django-storages for S3 and Azure as basic examples. I think the process is roughly:

1) Make sure the pulpcore[azure] pip extras is installed in the virtualenv:  https://github.com/pulp/pulpcore/blob/483abb5c4e8a048db4a8bd39f88c12617cf4b047/setup.py#L25-L30
2) Configure django-storages, which you can set via settings through the pulp_settings var entirely through the

I believe (1) is not available in the installer today and I'm hoping @mikedep333 can reply about what can be done there. As a workaround you could install it manually into the virtualenv onto the target system, let us know if you want more info on that.

To clarify, you're talking about having to install the django-storages packages[0]?

I don't know if this exists today in the installer (maybe someone from the pulp_installer team can confirm) but it would be great to have support for setting up pulp to use non-fs storage backends.

With using pip, I think you just need to be sure you're using the pulp virtualenv that the installer creates ($ workon pulp).

Hi,

I see instructions for using pip to install storage back ends.  I’m wondering if there is any way to install the storage back ends using ansible.  If I have used ansible to install pulp3 are there any tricks (or dangers) I need to know when using pip to install the storage back ends?

Thanks,
-Sheldon
