Can you retrieve hidden fields using cli

Hi,

When using the cli as below:

Pulp rpm remote list

Several fields are (rightly) hidden, proxy password for example.

Using the CLI is there any way to see the value of these? Use case is to confirm they are set right.

Thanks

Steven

@Zen42 No, the CLI is just calling the REST API behind the hood and the REST API can not return the hidden fields. Two ways to see if they are set right:

  1. (Primitive) Try to perform a sync and check if it succeeds.
  2. Look at the stored values in a Python shell on the Pulp machine. e.g.
# pulpcore-manager shell
from pulpcore.app.models import Remote
rem = Remote.objects.get(name="remote_name")
print(rem.proxy_password)

You can just see whether they have been set but for checking the field’s content you need to go to the DB
