hello

we have just started to use Ansible in one of our networks. one of our networks is a stand alone network which is not connected to the internet and the only way to insert data (files) to this environment is with offline copy. i would like to use some modules from the ansible galaxy but i didnt find any documented way to use install and use modules offline.

if needed i can install Ansible on a server in a network that connected to the internet and install the modules on that server but i need to know if coping the relevant files is enough ? ehat files to copy and where to put them ? do i need to do somethng special to use the modules offline ?

thanks

Avishay
