New Ansible Galaxy codebase, URLs to collections on Galaxy change #59

Closed felixfontein closed 5 months ago

felixfontein commented 11 months ago

Since today the galaxy_ng codebase is used on Ansible Galaxy (galaxy.ansible.com). One big change that everyone needs to be aware of is that URLs to collections (and roles) on Galaxy changed:

Before: https://galaxy.ansible.com/{namespace}/{name} (example: https://galaxy.ansible.com/community/general)

New: https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/repo/published/{namespace}/{name}/ (example: https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/repo/published/community/general/)

If you use the old URLs, you end up on a 404 page which provides a search result list usually pointing to the correct destination. If you link to your collection on Galaxy, for example from your GitHub repository, the collection's README, or any other place, you should better adjust the URL to the new format.

If you are using antsibull-docs to build a docsite: the latest release 2.5.0 (from today) uses the new URL format by default.
