Action Plugins
Action plugins act in conjunction with modules <../modules> to execute the actions
required by playbook tasks. They usually execute automatically in the
background doing prerequisite work before modules execute.
The 'normal' action plugin is used for modules that do not already have an action plugin.
Enabling Action Plugins
You can enable a custom action plugin by either dropping it into the
action_plugins directory adjacent to your play, inside a
role, or by putting it in one of the action plugin directory sources
configured in ansible.cfg <../config>.
Using Action Plugins
Action plugin are executed by default when an associated module is used; no action is required.
