running ansible-galaxy install in a playbook

[eric_skaggs]

Running ansible 2.1.0

I'm trying to run ansible-galaxy install in a play book to download the needed roles in an automated fashion to my local machine and it seems to skip the task.

So far I have tried:

- hosts: localhost

   connection: local

   tasks:

   - name: install required roles

     command: ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml -p roles

- hosts: localhost

   connection: local

   tasks:

    - name: install required roles

      local_action: command ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml -p roles

- hosts: localhost

  connection: local

  tasks:

  - name: install required roles

    command: ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml -p roles

    delegate_to: localhost

There is nothing that is being outputted saying an error or its skipped it just doesn't run and goes to the next part of the playbook, which is:

- hosts: localhost

  connection: local

  gather_facts: True

  roles:

     - ec2instance

Which then fails because it can't find the role.

Any help is appreciated.
