Collection Galaxy metadata structure

************************************
|
|
|
|
A key component of an Ansible collection is the ``galaxy.yml`` file placed in the root directory of a collection. This
|
|
file contains the metadata of the collection that is used to generate a collection artifact.
|
|
|
|
Structure
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
The ``galaxy.yml`` file must contain the following keys in valid YAML:
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. rst-class:: documentation-table
|
|
|
|
.. list-table::
|
|
:header-rows: 1
|
|
:widths: auto
|
|
|
|
* - Key
|
|
- Comment
|
|
|
|
{%- for entry in options %}
|
|
|
|
|
|
* - .. rst-class:: value-name
|
|
|
|
@{ entry.key }@ |br|
|
|
|
|
.. rst-class:: value-type
|
|
|
|
@{ entry.type | documented_type }@ |_|
|
|
|
|
{% if entry.get('required', False) -%}
|
|
.. rst-class:: value-separator
|
|
|
|
/ |_|
|
|
|
|
.. rst-class:: value-required
|
|
|
|
required
|
|
{%- endif %}
|
|
|
|
|
|
- {% for desc in entry.description -%}
|
|
@{ desc | trim | rst_ify }@
|
|
|
|
{% endfor -%}
|
|
{%- endfor %}
|
|
|
|
|
