+1 to facilitate the upload process.
At the conferences, there have been many users pointing out how
inconvenient current upload process is .
Is it so much more inconvenient because pulp3 doesn't have a cli?

Originally, our upload story was as follows:
The user will upload a new file to Pulp via POST to /artifacts/
(provided by core)
The user will create a new plugin specific Content via POST to
/path/to/plugin/content/, referencing whatever artifacts that are
contained, and whatever fields are expected for the new content.
The user will add the new content to a repository via POST to
/repositories/1/versions/
However, this is somewhat cumbersome to the user with 3 API calls
to accomplish something that only took one call in Pulp 2.
There are a couple of different paths plugins have taken to
improve the user experience:
The Python plugin follows the above workflow, but reads the
Artifact file to determine the values for the fields. The RPM
plugin has gone even farther and created a new endpoint for "one
shot" upload that perform all of this in a single call. I think it
is likely that the Python plugin will move more in the "one shot"
direction, and other plugins will probably follow.
That said, I think we should discuss this as a community to
encourage plugins to behave similarly, and because there may also
be a possibility for sharing some of code. It is my hope that a
"one shot upload" could do 2 things: 1) Upload and create Content.
2) Optionally add that content to repositories.
