ansible-galaxy dependencies installed but not found #1162
Description
Issue Type
- Bug report
Molecule and Ansible details
ansible 2.4.3.0
config file = None
configured module search path = [u'/home/vagrant/.ansible/plugins/modules', u'/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules']
ansible python module location = /home/vagrant/.virtualenvs/ansible-python2/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible
executable location = /home/vagrant/.virtualenvs/ansible-python2/bin/ansible
python version = 2.7.12 (default, Dec 4 2017, 14:50:18) [GCC 5.4.0 20160609]
molecule, version 2.8.2
Python 2.7.12
- Molecule installation method: virtualenv + pip
- Ansible installation method: virtualenv + pip
Desired Behaviour
Dependencies defined in/installed with the requirements.yml should be found.
I created a requirements.yml in the molecule/default/ folder of a role containing:
---
- src: geerlingguy.docker
When I run molecule converge, the dependency is correctly installed:
(ansible-python2) vagrant@vagrant:/ansible/roles/testrole$ molecule converge
--> Test matrix
└── default
├── dependency
├── create
├── prepare
└── converge
--> Scenario: 'default'
--> Action: 'dependency'
- changing role geerlingguy.docker from 2.1.0 to unspecified
- downloading role 'docker', owned by geerlingguy
- downloading role from https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-docker/archive/2.1.0.tar.gz
- extracting geerlingguy.docker to /home/vagrant/.ansible/roles/geerlingguy.docker
- geerlingguy.docker (2.1.0) was installed successfully
Dependency completed successfully.
...
Expected behavior would be that after this, the role would be found, and the converge step would succeed.
Actual Behaviour (Bug report only)
The issue seems to be that Molecule does not search the ${HOME}/.ansible/roles/ folder where ansible-galaxy installs them:
After installing the dependency correctly (to /home/vagrant/.ansible/roles/geerlingguy.docker), molecule fails to find the geerlingguy.docker role (in this example):
(ansible-python2) vagrant@vagrant:/ansible/roles/testrole$ molecule converge
...
- geerlingguy.docker (2.1.0) was installed successfully
Dependency completed successfully.

ERROR! the role 'geerlingguy.docker' was not found in /ansible/roles/testrole/molecule/default/roles:/ansible/roles/testrole/molecule/default/.molecule/roles:/ansible/roles:/ansible/roles:/ansible/roles/testrole/molecule/default
The error appears to have been in '/ansible/roles/docker/meta/main.yml': line 5, column 5, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
The offending line appears to be:
dependencies:
- role: geerlingguy.docker

ERROR:

It seems that at least in my environment, molecule doesn't provide the --roles-path to ansible-galaxy install, I would expect it to pass something like molecule/default/.molecule/roles - or another folder that molecule puts in the ANSIBLE_ROLES_PATH env var.
