Playbooks are not discovered in subdirectories within git project about awx HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi, is your playbook3.yml valid playbook? AWX does not list all existing YAML files but list YAML files that can be determined as playbooks. Also there is no limitation about the depth of the sub directories.

Okay after diving into the code I realize my problem

Apparently the project function skips any directory named roles which is exactly where my playbooks were placed, and ignores any files under it

Thats why my playbooks did not show up, after renaming roles to playbooks it works perfectly

https://github.com/ansible/awx/blob/devel/awx/main/utils/ansible.py/#L42-L66
this is how we determine if a yaml file "could be a playbook"

and here's the regex used to https://github.com/ansible/awx/blob/devel/awx/main/utils/ansible.py#L20 to scan the lines to determine if it "could be a playbook"

@kurokobo all 3 playbooks are exactly the same. It couldn't be a problem with the file itself

That shouldn't make much difference because the playbooks are identical yet only the first two are detected

Hmm okay, so please check:

• Project is synced and its revision is up-to-date, if your project on the SCM.
• Check if the result contains correct playbooks by querying https://<YOUR AWX>/api/v2/projects/<PROJECT ID>/playbooks/
• Try super-reloading your browser on the Create New Job Template page
