Description

Author: daviddavis (daviddavis)

Redmine Issue: 9142, https://pulp.plan.io/issues/9142


When exporting content to the filesystem or rsyncing it to a server, users will want to export a repo version (if the plugin doesn't have publications) or a publication (if the plugin has publications).

We need a way for plugin writers to indicate this and for the export code to check whether it should prevent users from exporting a repo version.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by tracing the export code and the plugin-writer interfaces it consults; determine how repository versions and publications are represented and where an export should be prevented. Done means plugins can indicate the appropriate export target and the export path enforces that choice.
