[Satellite6] How to get rid of pulp-admin wrapping output to 80 characters?

Environment

• Red Hat Satellite 6.9 or older
  • pulp-admin (any version)

Issue

• we need to parse output of pulp-admin
• sometimes the output line exceeds 80 characters and the line is wrapped in the middle of a word / value
• this makes further parsing of the text redundantly complex

Is there a way to disable the wrapping?

Resolution

In /etc/pulp/admin/admin.conf, uncomment and configure wrap_width: property accordingly, like:

[output]
# poll_frequency_in_seconds: 1
# enable_color: true
# wrap_to_terminal: false
wrap_width: 800
