author:
    - "Ansible Core Team (@ansible)"
module: include_role
short_description: Load and execute a role
description:
     - Loads and executes a role as a task, this frees roles from the `role:` directive and allows them to be treated more as tasks.
     - This module is also supported for Windows targets.
version_added: "2.2"
options:
  name:
    description:
      - The name of the role to be executed.
    required: True
  tasks_from:
    description:
      - "File to load from a Role's tasks/ directory."
    required: False
    default: 'main'
  vars_from:
    description:
      - "File to load from a Role's vars/ directory."
    required: False
    default: 'main'
  defaults_from:
    description:
      - "File to load from a Role's defaults/ directory."
    required: False
    default: 'main'
  allow_duplicates:
    description:
      - Overrides the role's metadata setting to allow using a role more than once with the same parameters.
    required: False
    default: True
  private:
    description:
      - If True the variables from defaults/ and vars/ in a role will not be made available to the rest of the play.
    default: None
notes:
    - Handlers are made available to the whole play.
    - Before 2.4, as with C(include), this task could be static or dynamic, If static it implied that it won't need templating nor loops nor conditionals
      and will show included tasks in the --list options.
      Ansible would try to autodetect what is needed, but you can set `static` to `yes` or `no` at task level to control this.
    - After 2.4, you can use M(import_role) for 'static' behaviour and this action for 'dynamic' one.
