Developing Advanced Automation with Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform

The ansible-navigator config command helps you explore and analyze the current configuration used by the ansible-navigator run command.

Automation content navigator can use only ansible.cfg files that it can see from inside the automation execution environment. These files include the /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg file in the execution environment container and the ansible.cfg file in your project directory.

You can configure automation content navigator settings by using the file defined by the ANSIBLE_NAVIGATOR_CONFIG environment variable, the ansible-navigator.yml configuration file in your current directory, or the ~/.ansible-navigator.yml configuration file in your home directory.

The ansible-navigator settings --sample command generates a sample ansible-navigator.yml configuration file.

The ansible-navigator settings --effective command generates a configuration file that reflects your current effective configuration, including options specified on the command line, values of environment variables, and defaults.
