fix(workflow): updated the ansible lint check workflow file

[glimchb]

why not

              - name: run-ansible-lint
                uses: ansible/[email protected]

first ?

see https://ansible.readthedocs.io/projects/lint/installing/#installing-ansible-lint-as-a-github-action

and warning

A new release of ansible-lint is available: 24.5.0 → 24.9.2

[Sakethanne]

I tried that initially, but it is still unable to recognize the installed collections. with the new script we do not need to specify the version, as it automatically picks up the latest version available

maybe we need to pass argument like

requirements_file: Path to the requirements.yml file to install role and collection dependencies.

when I try to install the collections, it says they are already installed

Run ansible-galaxy collection install arista.eos
  ansible-galaxy collection install arista.eos
  ansible-galaxy collection install community.general
  ansible-galaxy collection install f5networks.f5_modules
  ansible-galaxy collection install community.docker
  shell: /usr/bin/bash -e {0}
Starting galaxy collection install process
Nothing to do. All requested collections are already installed. If you want to reinstall them, consider using `--force`.

how you install them ? manually ? or via argument to github action of linter ?

I initially added this as a part of the code:

# Install required Ansible collections
      - name: Install Ansible collections
        run: |
          ansible-galaxy collection install arista.eos
          ansible-galaxy collection install community.general
          ansible-galaxy collection install f5networks.f5_modules
          ansible-galaxy collection install community.docker

then removed it, since they are already installed

but this https://ansible.readthedocs.io/projects/lint/installing/#installing-ansible-lint-as-a-github-action clearly states

        uses: ansible/ansible-lint@main
        # optional (see below):
        with:
          args: ""
          setup_python: "true"
          working_directory: ""
          requirements_file: ""

I would try new requirements_file argument

[Sakethanne]

Let me try the new option and get back with the results of it soon
