pulp-glue
Version agnostic glue library to talk to pulpcore's REST API.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you operate a Pulp 3 / Pulpcore infrastructure and need CLI or programmatic access to it. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and carries no known vulnerabilities. The GPL-2.0-or-later license is a blocker for proprietary use; the beta status means you should expect possible breaking changes. For open-source or internal tooling around Pulp, it's a solid choice.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python 3.10 or later.
- A running Pulpcore instance is needed to connect to.
- Low install friction with a pure-wheel distribution.

What it is and what it does
pulp-glue is a beta-stage command-line interface and client library for interacting with Pulp 3 and its underlying Pulpcore REST API. It abstracts away version differences to provide a stable interface for managing content repositories and distributions. The package depends on requests for HTTP communication, pydantic for data validation, packaging for version handling, multidict for HTTP headers, and tomli for configuration parsing.
Developers use pulp-glue to automate repository operations, manage content synchronization, and interact with Pulpcore without writing raw REST calls. It's designed for teams running Pulp infrastructure who need programmatic or command-line control over their content distribution systems. The beta status signals that the API may change in future releases.
Use it for
- Automate content repository management and synchronization workflows against Pulpcore.
- Build deployment scripts that manage package distributions and repository configurations via CLI.
- Integrate Pulp operations into CI/CD pipelines for automated content publishing.
- Query and manage Pulpcore repositories programmatically from Python applications.
- Migrate or replicate repository content across Pulp instances using the stable API abstraction.
