Before downloading a role using the ansible-galaxy install command, you will first need to find the role that you want to install. Often, this is done by searching the Ansible Galaxy website for the role you want to install. For example, here is the HTTPD role on the Ansible Galaxy website.

Or, you can use the ansible-galaxy search command to find the role you want to install, and then the ansible-galaxy info command to display more information on a role. For example, here is the output that would be produced when using the ansible-galaxy info bertvv.httpd command.

~]$ ansible-galaxy info bertvv.httpd

Role: bertvv.httpd
