[Spacewalk-list] Export all RPMs from channel

[Schindler, Daniel (STEAG Energy Services GmbH)]

Thanks Matthew.

I added some missing statements to the script.

Looks like this now:

#!/usr/bin/python

import xmlrpclib
import os
import sys
import subprocess

SATELLITE_URL = "h /rpc/api"
SATELLITE_LOGIN = "username"
SATELLITE_PASSWORD = "password"

channel = "channel"

client = xmlrpclib.Server(SATELLITE_URL, verbose=0)

key = client.auth.login(SATELLITE_LOGIN, SATELLITE_PASSWORD)

packages = client.channel.software.listAllPackages(key, channel)
for package in packages:
        package_id = package['id']
        url = client.packages.getPackageUrl(key, package_id)
        print url


client.auth.logout(key)

I've created an API script to do just this. Update the SATELLITE_URL, LOGIN, PASSWORD, and channel variables for your environment.

softwarechannel_listpackages.py

##BEGIN SCRIPT##

#!/usr/bin/python

import xmlrpclib
import os
import sys
import subprocess

SATELLITE_URL = "http://spacewalk.example.com/rpc/api"
SATELLITE_LOGIN = "username"
SATELLITE_PASSWORD = "password"

channel = "rhel-x86_64-server-5-rhn-tools"

client = xmlrpclib.Server(SATELLITE_URL, verbose=0)

key = client.auth.login(SATELLITE_LOGIN, SATELLITE_PASSWORD)

packages = client.channel.software.listAllPackages(key, channel)
for package in packages:
#   print package['id']
        package_id = package['id']
        url = client.packages.getPackageUrl(key, package_id)
        print url


client.auth.logout(key)

##END SCRIPT##

Then use it to dump the download locations for each package into a text file like this:

python softwarechannel_listpackages.py > package_list

You can then simply locally wget each of the packages.

for x in `cat package_list` ; do wget $x ; done

Hope this helps.

Hi,

You could do this fairly quickly with the API.

Get a list of packages in a channel via channel.software.listAllPackages and use the id of each returned item to call packages.getPackage.

Thanks,

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Export all RPMs from channel

Hi,

is there a possibility to export all RPMs from a desired channel?

We want to send update packages to our customer who has no network/internet access.

Regards,
Daniel
