So hoping to get this ironed out for the 2.2 release, I’ve merged include_role into devel which now allows you to use ‘roles as tasks’.
I know this is a feature many of you are eager to play with, so I thought we should push it out ASAP to get early feedback and breakage.
The basic stuff is now working, it needs A LOT of testing and we will probably tweak it’s behavior before release.
This is NOT production ready and might have unforeseen side effects.
PR (merged) is:
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/17232
For docs use ansible-doc include_role or browse:
https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/blob/devel/utilities/logic/include_role.py
I’ll keep the module docs updated with any changes in design or expected behavior.

or feedback just open issues as you normally would at
