I have Ansible roles packed and uploaded in JFrog Artifactory.
Username and password or username and identity token (passed as password) need to be provided to download files.
When I download any files from Artifactory, I need to set force_basic_auth: true in the module ansible.builtin.get_url (username and password are also provided), otherwise Artifactory returns 404 error.
My problem is when I try to install the above mentioned role with ansible-galaxy, I can specify the credentials as part of the URL, but cannot set force_basic_auth: true.
My command is:
ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yml
requirements.yml:
- src: https://<username>:<password>@artifactory.mycompany.com/artifactory/repo/namespace/component/version/component-version.tar.gz
name: component
How could I install the role hosted in Artifactory?
I edited ansible/module_utils/urls.py to set force_basic_auth=True before making the request. That made the installation work.
Download with cUrl also works using the same URL.
curl https://<username>:<password>@artifactory.mycompany.com/artifactory/repo/namespace/component/version/component-version.tar.gz -o role.tar.gz
