* Fix validate-modules support for collections.
- Relative imports now work correctly.
- The collection loader is now used.
- Modules are invoked as `__main__`.
* Remove obsolete validate-modules code ignores.
* Handle sys.exit in validate-modules.
* Add check for AnsibleModule initialization.
* Remove `missing-module-utils-import` check.
This check does not support relative imports or collections.
Instead of trying to overhaul the test, we can rely on the `ansible-module-not-initialized` test instead.
* Fix badly named error codes with `c#` in the name.
The `#` conflicts with comments in the sanity test ignore files.
* Add changelog entries.
Add a list of previously used release names to make it easy to tell what
release names are no longer usable.
Add a test that new release names have been added to the used list.

This will help prevent accidental merging of content to recently obsoleted directories when adding new files.
It may also help contributors who have modified obsolete files understand where their changes should now be made.
* Relocate module validator code and tests.
* Fix validate-modules entry point and imports.
* Fix paths and test entry points.
* Fix up unit tests.
* Fix shebang and execute bit.

* Get "code smell" sanity tests from multiple dirs.
- `test/lib/ansible_test/_data/sanity/code-smell/` - General purpose tests used for both Ansible and Ansible Collections.
- `test/sanity/code-smell/` - Tests specific to Ansible, will not be used for Ansible Collections.
* Render elements in module doc and sanity test for suboptions
* Add support to render module elements value in ansible-doc output
module html
* Add validate-module sanity test of sunoptions.

- Use predictable VM name during the tests (test_vm1, test_vm2 and
test_vm2). This to simplify the teardown of the newly created resource
before the next test.
- Update the documentation to explain the new requirement
- Avoid VM creation with `with_items` when it's not mandatory. This to:
- speed up the test execution, our hypervisors have limited resources
- simplify the teardown
- Remove `create_d1_c1_f0_env.yml`, the test was just testing how Ansible
pass environment variables.
- Correct the name for the `f0` variable (`f1`)
- Fix the DVS tests, the hosts can now reach the dvswitch1 vswitch
- Provision the VM with a poweroff status, this to improve the
idempotency and sleep up the tests
- Avoid the use of `prepare_vmware_tests` to prepare virtual machines
when we just need one machine

ansible-test only passes files which have the .py suffix for sanity
tests on python files. This change will allow sanity tests to run on
the Python files in hacking/

* Symlink test-module for backwards compat since end users may be using
test-module
* Fix test-module sanity errors that are now triggered
* Rename ansible_profile to ansible-profile.py
* Rename build-ansible
The metaclass boilerplate is safe to apply en masse. The future import
boilerplate needs code to be inspected to be sure that there aren't any
py2isms that need to be fixed. Split these two checks so that we can
fix them independently
Be explicit about which files are grandfathered so we can fix them up one by one

* Replace InventoryFileCacheModule with a better developer-interface
Use new interface for inventory plugins with backwards compatibility
Auto-update the backing cache-plugin if the cache has changed after parsing the inventory plugin
* Update CacheModules to use the config system and add a deprecation warning if they are being imported directly rather than using cache_loader
* Fix foreman inventory caching
* Add tests
* Add integration test to check that fact caching works normally with cache plugins using ansible.constants and inventory caching provides a helpful error for non-compatible cache plugins
* Add some developer documentation for inventory and cache plugins
* Add user documentation for inventory caching
* Add deprecation docs
* Apply suggestions from docs review
* Add changelog
* Add a new check to ensure that module arguments are valid python identifiers
* Move the check up higher, out of the if docs block
* Skip validate-modules on py2
* Remove errant alias
Based on https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/config.html
the default callback paths do not contain `_plugin`. Thus `~/.ansible/plugins/callback_plugins` and `/usr/share/ansible/plugins/plugin_type/action_plugins` are incorrect. Verified on 2.7.5 that by default `plugins/action` works and `plugins/action_plugins` does not.
* update the developing_inventory docs to show ungrouped as a dict with a "children" key; avoid
[WARNING]: Found both group and host with same name: ungrouped
* validate-modules: Documentation bool
This check allows to catch cases where type of argument is different than documentation does.

* Changed 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node' in the documentation. Changing the term 'Control Machine' to 'Control Node', to be in line with the basic concepts here: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/network/getting_started/basic_concepts.html
Also for both entities; Control/Managed using the same common denominator 'Node' brings consistency.
* Updated reference links to new term.
* promote doc_fragments into actual plugins
change tests hardcoded path to doc fragments
avoid sanity in fragments
avoid improper testing of doc_fragments
also change runner paths
fix botmeta
updated comment for fragments
updated docs
Add a section to the documentation describing precisely how Ansible
merges custom module_utils/* Python code into the "ansible.module_utils"
namespace.
* Docs: Add a separate "seealso" section to the module docs
to list related modules and/or related references. This clears up the notes
section for things that are actual notes.
So you can add a section in your module documentation and four types of
references are possible.
seealso:
# Reference by module name
- module: aci_tenant
# Reference by module name, including description
- module: aci_tenant
description: ACI module to create tenants on a Cisco ACI fabric.
# Reference by rST documentation anchor
- ref: aci_guide
description: Detailed information on how to manage your ACI infrastructure using Ansible.
# Reference by Internet resource
- name: APIC Management Information Model reference
description: Complete reference of the APIC object model.
link: https://developer.cisco.com/docs/apic-mim-ref/
This PR also includes:
- Implements ansible-doc support
- Implements schema support for the seealso options
- Updates to the development documentation
- Rename filter convert_symbols_to_format to rst_ify, cfr the existing html_ify and tty_ify filters
- This makes the existing template a lot easier to read and fixes the confusion I had myself rereading the template (again).
- We fixed the possible suboption types (which was limited to 'bool' only)
* Use latest stable instead of devel docs
* Added recommendation about module name
Added general guidelines for naming a module.

* XenServer related modules - initial commit
- New module_util: xenserver. Contains common module arguments, functions
and classes useful for future XenServer related modules.
- New module_docs_fragment: xenserver. Describes common module arguments.
- New module: xenserver_guest. Supports VM deployment, reconfiguration,
removal, detection of changes, state management, fact gathering and
Ansible check mode. Module is fully documented.
- Updated: developing_module_utilities.rst.
- Module params, workflow and some functions are based on or taken from
vmware_guest module.

* Support skip of platforms by version in tests.
Previously a remote platform could be skipped completely using the alias:
`skip/{platform}` such as `skip/rhel`
