Description

Author: @ggainey (ggainey)

Redmine Issue: 9128, https://pulp.plan.io/issues/9128


pulp_rpm has run into problems that require repairing broken rpm-specific data. It would be nice if there were some way that a plugin could register an interest when /pulp/pulp/api/v3/repair/ is invoked, and do plugin-specific investigation/changes.

Research direction

Start at the repository-repair API endpoint, /pulp/pulp/api/v3/repair/, and trace how repair requests are handled. Determine how plugins could register interest for plugin-specific investigation or changes, then verify that the repair process invokes that extension point for pulp_rpm data.
