RFE: Provide method for plugins to reference external roles #348

Currently plugins are able to install Python requirements by specifying a requirements.txt file or similar. However, there is no provision to allow a plugin to install external Ansible roles as part of the installation. A mechanism should be provided that allows a plugin to include a requirements.yml file in the root of the plugin directory that specifies roles to be installed via Ansible Galaxy.

Hi @greg-hellings,

A ticket (RHOSINFRA-2386) has been opened on our Jira Board and will be updated with details and the progress.

Thank you, Ariel
