boolean
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
Whether or not to add the export distributor to new rpm repositories.
client_cert
path
PEM formatted certificate chain file to be used for SSL client authentication.
This file can also include the key as well, and if the key is included, client_key is not required.
client_key

PEM formatted file that contains your private key to be used for SSL client authentication.
If client_cert contains both the certificate and key, this option is not required.
feed
string
Upstream feed URL to receive updates from.
feed_ca_cert
string
CA certificate string used to validate the feed source SSL certificate. This can be the file content or the path to the file.

aliases: importer_ssl_ca_cert
feed_client_cert
string
Certificate used as the client certificate when synchronizing the repository. This is used to communicate authentication information to the feed source. The value to this option must be the full path to the certificate. The specified file may be the certificate itself or a single file containing both the certificate and private key. This can be the file content or the path to the file.

aliases: importer_ssl_client_cert
feed_client_key

Private key to the certificate specified in importer_ssl_client_cert, assuming it is not included in the certificate file itself. This can be the file content or the path to the file.

force_basic_auth
boolean
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
httplib2, the library used by the ansible.builtin.uri module only sends authentication information when a webservice responds to an initial request with a 401 status. Since some basic auth services do not properly send a 401, logins will fail. This option forces the sending of the Basic authentication header upon initial request.
generate_sqlite
boolean
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
Boolean flag to indicate whether sqlite files should be generated during a repository publish.
http_agent
string
Default:
"ansible-httpget"
Header to identify as, generally appears in web server logs.
