Chapter 6. Retrieving configuration settings by using the API


Configuration settings can be returned on the CLI by leveraging the FEATURE_SUPERUSER_CONFIGDUMP configuration field alongside the v1/superuser/config API endpoint. Together, Red Hat Quay superusers can return all Flask configuration fields that are set, which can be used to show proof of compliance for various security policies, such as PCI-DSS 4.0.

Prerequisites

  • You have set FEATURE_SUPERUSER_CONFIGDUMP: true in your config.yaml file.
  • You have assigned the superuser role to a user in your config.yaml file.
  • You have generated an OAuth 2 access token for the superuser.

Procedure

  • Retrieve configuration settings by using the v1/superuser/config API endpoint. For example:

    $ curl -X GET -H "Authorization: Bearer <bearer_token>" "http://<quay-server.example.com>/api/v1/superuser/config" | jq -r .config
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

    Example output

    ...
      "TEAM_RESYNC_STALE_TIME": "30m",
      "UI_DELAY_AFTER_WRITE_SECONDS": 3,
      "UI_MODELCARD_ANNOTATION": {},
      "UI_MODELCARD_ARTIFACT_TYPE": "application/x-mlmodel",
      "UI_MODELCARD_LAYER_ANNOTATION": {
        "org.opencontainers.image.title": "README.md"
      }
    ...
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  • You can pass in one of .config, .env, .warning, or .schema to return specific information. For example:

    $ curl -X GET -H "Authorization: Bearer <bearer_token>" "http://<quay-server.example.com>/api/v1/superuser/config" | jq -r .warning
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

    Example output

    ...
      "BILLING_TYPE": "FakeStripe",
      "BUILDLOGS_OPTIONS": [],
      "BUILD_MANAGER": null,
      "CDN_SPECIFIC_NAMESPACES": [],
      "CHANNEL_COLORS": [
      ]
    ...
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
