As you can see in the above, there are a large amount of controls available
to customize where roles can be pulled from, and what to save roles as.
You can also pull down multiple roles from a single source(just make sure that you have a meta/main.yml file at the root level).
::
meta\main.yml
common-role1\tasks\main.yml
common-role2\tasks\main.yml
For example, if the above common roles are published to a git repo, you can pull them down using:
::
# multiple roles from the same repo
- src: git@gitlab.company.com:mygroup/ansible-common.git
name: common-roles
scm: git
version: master
You could then use these common roles in your plays
::
---
- hosts: webservers
roles:
- common-roles/common-role1
- common-roles/common-role2
Roles pulled from galaxy work as with other SCM sourced roles above. To download a role with dependencies, and automatically install those dependencies, the role must be uploaded to the Ansible Galaxy website.
