ansible-galaxy: Remove a role.
$ ansible-galaxy remove ${username}.${role_name}
try on your machine

This command is used to remove an Ansible role that was created by a specific user (identified by their username) on the Ansible Galaxy platform.

Here's how the command works:

  • ansible-galaxy is the Ansible command-line tool used to manage roles, collections, and other resources from the Ansible Galaxy platform.
  • remove is the subcommand that tells Ansible Galaxy to remove a specific role.
  • ${username}.${role_name} is the parameter that specifies the user and role name to be removed. This needs to be replaced with the actual username and role name. For example, if the user is "johnsmith" and the role name is "webserver", the command would be something like: ansible-galaxy remove johnsmith.webserver.

Executing this command will remove the role identified by the specified username and role name from the Ansible Galaxy platform, making it inaccessible to others.
