Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
add_export_distributor 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 path		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. The ca_cert alias will be removed in community.general 3.0.0. aliases: importer_ssl_ca_cert, 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. If not specified the default value will come from client_cert. Which will change in community.general 3.0.0. aliases: importer_ssl_client_cert
feed_client_key string		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. If not specified the default value will come from client_key. Which will change in community.general 3.0.0. aliases: importer_ssl_client_key
force boolean	Choices: no ← yes	If yes do not get a cached copy. Alias thirsty has been deprecated and will be removed in 2.13. aliases: thirsty
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.
name string / required		Name of the repo to add or remove. This correlates to repo-id in Pulp. aliases: repo
proxy_host string		Proxy url setting for the pulp repository importer. This is in the format scheme://host.
proxy_password string		Proxy password for the pulp repository importer.
proxy_port string		Proxy port setting for the pulp repository importer.
proxy_username string		Proxy username for the pulp repository importer.
publish_distributor string		Distributor to use when state is publish. The default is to publish all distributors.
pulp_host string	Default: "https://127.0.0.1"	URL of the pulp server to connect to.
relative_url string		Relative URL for the local repository. It's required when state=present.
repo_type string	Default: "rpm"	Repo plugin type to use (i.e. rpm, docker).
repoview boolean	Choices: no ← yes	Whether to generate repoview files for a published repository. Setting this to "yes" automatically activates `generate_sqlite`.
serve_http boolean	Choices: no ← yes	Make the repo available over HTTP.
serve_https boolean	Choices: no yes ←	Make the repo available over HTTPS.
state string	Choices: present ← absent sync publish	The repo state. A state of sync will queue a sync of the repo. This is asynchronous but not delayed like a scheduled sync. A state of publish will use the repository's distributor to publish the content.
url string		HTTP, HTTPS, or FTP URL in the form (http|https|ftp)://[user[:pass]]@host.domain[:port]/path
url_password string		The password for use in HTTP basic authentication to the pulp API. If the url_username parameter is not specified, the url_password parameter will not be used.
url_username string		The username for use in HTTP basic authentication to the pulp API.
use_proxy boolean	Choices: no yes ←	If no, it will not use a proxy, even if one is defined in an environment variable on the target hosts.
validate_certs boolean	Choices: no yes ←	If no, SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only be used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.
wait_for_completion boolean	Choices: no ← yes	Wait for asynchronous tasks to complete before returning.
