A yum or dnf repository can be added to managed nodes using Ansible. This is done using the ansible builtin yum_repository module.

Basics of creating yum repositories can be found at this link.

Below playbook adds a yum repository.

[root@centos9vm ~]# cat create_yum_repo.yml

Let us check the managed node before running the playbook

[root@centos9test1 ~]# dnf repolist all | grep fedo

The above command may not return any result

Now let us run the playbook

[root@centos9vm ~]# ansible-navigator run -m stdout create_yum_repo.yml
