Warning

Please, be aware that the documentation below is a work in progress. We are working on fixing it, adding missing bits and generally making it better. Also, it was originaly used for command line help only, therefore the formatting is often suboptional.

Provision guest using Artemis backend.

Minimal configuration could look like this:

provision:
    how: artemis
    image: Fedora
    api-url: https://your-artemis.com/

Note

The actual value of image depends on what images - or “composes” as Artemis calls them - supports and can deliver.

Note

The api-url can be also given via TMT_PLUGIN_PROVISION_ARTEMIS_API_URL environment variable.

Short names are also provided for centos, centos-stream, alma, rocky, oracle, debian and ubuntu (e.g. centos-8 or c8).

Note

The non-rpm distros are not fully supported yet in tmt as the package installation is performed solely using dnf/yum and rpm. But you should be able the login to the provisioned guest and start experimenting. Full support is coming in the future :)
