Please create the collection in ansible-galaxy

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to download the collection and it's dependencies with the command ansible-galaxy collection download dev-sec.os-hardening -p ~/offline-collections.
I guess that other users would like to install the collection with the ansible-galaxy command as well.

The collection has a dependency to the community.crypto collection, which I think is not specified in the dependencies.

Bonus bug:
https://github.com/dev-sec/ansible-collection-hardening/blob/master/roles/os_hardening/meta/main.yml
The description and min_ansible_version needs updating.
(The role is not for SSH and I know that at least Ansible version 2.9.something is needed.)

Describe the solution you'd like
Add the role to Galaxy.

Can you try this command?

ansible-galaxy collection install devsec.hardening

The collection has a dependency to the community.crypto collection, which I think is not specified in the dependencies.

It is here: https://github.com/dev-sec/ansible-collection-hardening/blob/master/galaxy.yml#L20-L21

The description and min_ansible_version needs updating.

Thanks, needs to be fixed.

Thank you!
I tried to find the command to install the collection here on GitHub. I couldn't find it.
Shouldn't it be on the main readme under "Using this collection"?

Google gives only results for the other older galaxy page with a dash: https://galaxy.ansible.com/dev-sec
It's a little confusing that you have another one without the dash: https://galaxy.ansible.com/devsec

I added it.

t's a little confusing that you have another one without the dash

Yeah, one day the Ansible team defined that names should not have dashes in them, that's why we had to create the new namespace. The old namespace with the dash is for backwards compatibility.

[joubbi]

I understand. If you're still able to do changes in the old namespace, it would probably help others if you had a comment there steering people to the right one.

[rndmh3ro]

I'll keep this open to add a note to the old roles and fix the min_ansible_version.
