Created a new module in "~/ansible_dev/ansible_collections/community/aws/plugins/modules", but neither ansible-playbook nor ansible-doc finds the new module. for the sake of test, copied a module to new name, to make sure it is not related to module content, and original module can be found, but not the new one.
ansible-doc -t module testing_module Checking collections development document: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_collections.html but can't find any thing about adding a new module. What am I missing ? Thanks On Thu, 4 Jun 2020 at 22:10, Jordan Borean <[email protected]> wrote: > You've identified one of the many annoying parts of collections.
