ModuLix collections

An Ansible collection is a versioned distribution boundary. It gives roles and plugins a fully qualified name and lets consumers pin a reviewed release.

Public collections

The following repositories were verified as public at this page's review date. The namespace and collection names come from each repository's galaxy.yml.

CollectionPublic sourceDocumented scope
lit.foundationalansible-collection-foundationalFoundational building blocks for infrastructure automation
lit.rhelansible-collection-rhelRed Hat Enterprise Linux focused content
lit.ubuntuansible-collection-ubuntuUbuntu focused content
lit.ocpansible-collection-ocpOpenShift Container Platform focused content
lit.supplementaryansible-collection-supplementaryOptional infrastructure services

This table is an index, not a compatibility matrix. Open the selected repository's release notes, testing documentation, and role documentation before adopting it.

Evaluate a collection release

Use the same decision record for every collection:

  1. Select an immutable release tag or commit.
  2. Confirm the source repository, namespace, and collection name.
  3. Read release notes for breaking changes and deprecations.
  4. Check supported controller and target versions in that release.
  5. Review required external collections and Python or system dependencies.
  6. Verify signatures, checksums, or provenance when the release provides them.
  7. Test the exact artifact in a representative non-production environment.
  8. Record the approved version and the reason for selecting it.

Keep ownership close to code

Variables, defaults, platform matrices, and role-specific examples can change with a collection. Their canonical documentation therefore stays in the public component repository. This site owns the cross-collection concepts and safe selection workflow.

See Installation for a pinned evaluation example and Lifecycle for upgrade and retirement decisions.
