13.1. Synchronizing Ansible Collections

On Satellite, you can synchronize your Ansible Collections from Private Automation Hub, console.redhat.com, and other Satellite instances. Ansible Collections will appear on Satellite as a new repository type in the Satellite web UI menu under Content after the sync.

Procedure

  1. In the Satellite web UI, navigate to Content > Products.
  2. Select the required product name.
  3. In the Products window, select the name of a product that you want to create a repository for.
  4. Click the Repositories tab, and then click New Repository.
  5. In the Name field, enter a name for the repository.

    The Label field is populated automatically based on the name.

  6. From the Type list, select ansible collection.
  7. In the Upstream URL field, enter the URL for the upstream collections repository.

    The URL can be any Ansible Galaxy endpoint. For example, https://console.redhat.com/api/automation-hub/.

  8. Optional: In the Requirements.yml field, you can specify the list of collections you want to sync from the endpoint, as well as their versions.

    If you do not specify the list of collections, everything from the endpoint will be synced.

    ---
    collections:
    - name: my_namespace.my_collection
      version: 1.2.3

    For more information, see Installing roles and collections from the same requirements.yml file in the Galaxy User Guide.
