molecule: Create a new Ansible role.
$ molecule init role --role-name ${role_name}
try on your machine
This command is using the Molecule tool to initialize a new Ansible role.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "molecule": Refers to the Molecule command-line interface (CLI).
- "init": Instructs Molecule to initialize a new role.
- "role": Specifies that the initialized resource is an Ansible role.
- "--role-name": This flag is used to set the name of the role being initialized.
- "${role_name}": Is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual desired value for the role's name.
By running this command, Molecule will generate the basic structure and files required for an Ansible role, such as directories (defaults, files, handlers, tasks, templates, etc.) and files like the "README.md" and "meta/main.yml".

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
