short_description: Load and execute a role
|
||||
description:
|
||||
- "Loads and executes a role as a task, this frees roles from the `role:` directive and allows them to be treated more as tasks."
|
||||
version_added: "2.2"
|
||||
options:
|
||||
name:
|
||||
description:
|
||||
- The name of the role to be executed.

required: True

description:
|
||||
- "File to load from a Role's tasks/ directory."

required: False

default: 'main'
|
||||
notes:
|
||||
- THIS IS EARLY PREVIEW, THINGS MAY CHANGE
|
||||
- Only basic roles have been tested for now, some things might not work as expected.
|
||||
- Handlers are made available to the whole play.
|
||||
- Currently role variables are not pushed up to the play.
|
||||
- "Things not tested (yet): loops, plugin overrides, nesting includes, role dependencies, used as handler, other stuff I did not think of when I wrote this."
