There is no way to do this.  An underscore is just an underscore in plugin names in a collection,and there are no common patterns that denote such a thing is private.


This issue keeps coming up again and again in system roles, but apparently no one else in the Ansible community has a need to keep parts of the collection api private?  No one else has an issue with users of a collection using code in the collection that is not intended to be used directly?  Or is it an implicit assumption of collection designers that any piece of code shipped in a collection must handle the case where a user will use it directly?

    The linux-system-roles project has several roles that have modules

    usable
    or not supported outside of the collection (other than
    documentation)?
    For example, internal module names begin with an underscore?
