Using ansible-lint as a GitHub Action

This action allows you to run ansible-lint on your codebase without having to install it yourself.

# .github/workflows/ansible-lint.yml
name: ansible-lint
on:
  pull_request:
    branches: ["main", "stable", "release/v*"]
jobs:
  build:
    name: Ansible Lint # Naming the build is important to use it as a status check
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Run ansible-lint
        uses: ansible/ansible-lint@main
        # optional (see below):
        with:
          args: ""
          setup_python: "true"
          working_directory: ""
          requirements_file: ""

All the arguments are optional and most users should not need them:

  • args: Arguments to be passed to ansible-lint command.
  • setup_python: If python should be installed. Default is true.
  • working_directory: The directory where to run ansible-lint from. Default is github.workspace. That might be needed if you want to lint only a subset of your repository.
  • requirements_file: Path to the requirements.yml file to install role and collection dependencies.

For more details, see ansible-lint-action.
