Bug 1944733

With Satellite 6.10, the support for performing an incremental export can now be supported.

Below are a couple of example commands involving either a content view version or Library:

hammer content-export incremental version --content-view=view --version=2.0 --organization="Default_Organization"

hammer content-export incremental library --organization="Default_Organization"

Note: The testing of hammer content-import version --organization-id <org-id> --path /var/lib/pulp/imports/<dir with import> can be found here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1632961 and that has been successful.  This testing will focus on "hammer content-export incremental library"


Steps to test:

1. Spin up 2 Satellites (6.10 each)

#Export Satellite Portion

2. On satellite to export, import manifest
3. Administer -> Setting -> Search for "Default Red Hat Repository download policy" -> Set policy to "immediate"
4. Enable a several RH repos
5. Sync the repos
6. Run complete export command: hammer content-export complete library --organization-id <org-id>
7. Verify that the export files are created in "/var/lib/pulp/exports/<organization name>/Export-Library/<version>/<export time stamp>
8. Check on UI to see that a "Export-Library" cv is created which contains all repos from step 4

#Import Disconnected Satellite Portion

9. On the satellite to import the cv, import manifest that would have all the repos created in step 4
10. Set "Default Red Hat Repository download policy" to "immediate" just like step 3.
11. Set "Disconnected Mode" to "Yes" by going to Administer -> Setting -> Content Tab -> Disconnected Mode
12. SCP the files from the exported directory in step 8 to /var/lib/pulp/imports in the satellite in which you want to import
13. Provide write permission to the dir imported: chown -R pulp:pulp /var/lib/pulp/imports/<dir with import>
14. Verify that the files are present in /var/lib/pulp/imports/<dir with import>
15. Run the import command: hammer content-import library --organization-id <org-id> --path /var/lib/pulp/imports/<dir with import>
16. Verify that on the UI that a CV named "Import-Library" is created and contains all the repos from step 4

# Back to Export Satellite portion to test incremental export

18. Enable and sync a new repo
19. Run incremental export command: hammer content-export incremental library --organization-id <org-id>
20. Check the repos within the metadata.json file by running: cat <dir of exported content>|json_reformat
21. Compare the sizes of the tar.gz files between the complete and incremental version: ls -lh <dir of exported content>
22. Check UI to see "Export-Library" cv has version 2.0 with the new repos included

# Back to Import Disconnected Satellite Portion

23. SCP the files from the incremental exported directory in step 19 to /var/lib/pulp/imports in the satellite in which you want to import
24. Provide write permission to the dir imported: chown -R pulp:pulp /var/lib/pulp/imports/<dir with incremental import>
25. Verify that the files are present in /var/lib/pulp/imports/<dir with import>
26. Run the import command: hammer content-import version --organization-id <org-id> --path /var/lib/pulp/imports/<dir with import>
27. Verify that on the UI that the CV and it's content is all imported over for "Import-Library" for version 2.0 

Expected:
20) Metadata should have all repos and ["incremental": true,]
21) Incremental file should be smaller than complete file
22) UI should have "Export-Library" with version 2.0 with new repo included
26) Import should be successful
27) UI should show "Import-Library" with version 2.0 with new repo included

Actual:
20) Metadata does have all repos and
 "incremental": true,
21)
