Why isn't there a "galaxy" module for installing roles directly inside ansible?

Do you mean a galaxy role that takes a list of galaxy roles to suck down?

That's an interesting idea, though I believe currently all roles need to be "in" before ansible-playbook is invoked.

It could be done in a two step process perhaps.

I'm wondering if a module might be a better start, that could also take a galaxy requirements file.

Hi Michael,

Exactly.

Ah, ok.

Certainly.  The main thing is having some kind of entity that can be handed a list of roles, and then install them.
