Creating a repository in Cloudera Data Engineering using the CLI

Learn how to create a repository in Cloudera Data Engineering using the CLI with the supported Git providers, including GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket.

For information on limitations and on how to create credentials, see Creating a Git repository in Cloudera Data Engineering.

Using the CDE CLI, run the following command:

For skipping TLS certificate:

cde repository create --name [***REPOSITORY-NAME***] --url [***REPOSITORY-URL***] --branch [***BRANCH-NAME***] --insecure-skip-tls --credential [***USER-CREDENTIAL***]

For using TLS certificate:

cde repository create --name [***REPOSITORY-NAME***] --url [***REPOSITORY-URL***] --branch [***BRANCH-NAME***] --credential [***USER-CREDENTIAL***] --repository-tls-certs [***PATH-TO-CERT-PEM-FILE***]

Provide the values for the following parameters:

--name – The repository name.
--url – The repository URL.
--branch – The branch name.
--insecure-skip-tls – Optional parameter. Use this parameter if the server uses a self-signed CA certificate that Cloudera Data Engineering does not trust. This allows Cloudera Data Engineering to skip the security check and clone the repository.
--tls-insecure – Optional parameter. Use this parameter to enter the CA certificate for the repository.
note
- This option is available only from Cloudera Data Engineering 1.5.5 SP1 release onward.
- If you choose to skip using a TLS certificate and used the --insecure-skip-tls parameter, then the --tls-insecure parameter is not needed.
--repository-tls-certs - Optional parameter. Path to PEM file containing the TLS certificate bundle for the repository.
--credential – If the repository does not require credentials, then this parameter is optional. For instructions on creating credentials, see Creating a Git repository in Cloudera Data Engineering.
