Ansible collection 3.0.0 skeleton

I have my own plugin and roles packed with collection and would like to use the ansible collection 3.0.0 skeleton.

Is there a process to migrate an older version of collection to the ansible collection 3.0.0 format?

Hi @kumar
Is this what you are looking for GitHub - ansible-collections/collection_template: A GitHub Template repo to use as the basis for future repos

No @gundalow

My ansible collections uses 2.x version so I wanted to support ansible collections 3.0.0 version as well.

Hi,
The collections are the same, no work needed. That page is just about how we group some common collections together.

If you’ve got an error, please share it and we can take a look

PS, Welcome to the Ansible Forum

Thanks @gundalow for your reply.

How do we ignore the files or validate-module-error during sanity testing in ansible 3.0.0 version

Ideally we should understand the problems that ansible-test sanity is reporting and fix them. Happy to guide you through that process.

Would you be able to share:

  • Copy of the full error
  • Link to the collection code (public GitHub repo?)

Just FYI - Ansible 3 is EOL for quite some time. This is the version number for the Ansible package, which combines a curated set of collections with an ansible-core release.

So the ansible-core releases are still on the 2.x format (2.17 is the current version).
