* fix problem with documentation and param definition difference
* removed some E324 from ignore.txt
* fixed mistake
* remove one more E324
* removed function app
* fixing append tags
* leaving append tags for later
This PR includes:
- Fixes to the majority of module validation issues
(deliberate inconsistencies between docs and arg_spec)
- Removal of deprecated parameters 'method' and 'protocols'
- A few typos in the documentation
There are still some left-over validation errors, some are deliberate
(like doc strings as default to indicate ranges, etc.)
* Allow subspec defaults to be processed when the parent argument is not supplied
* Allow this to be configurable via apply_defaults on the parent
* Document attributes of arguments in argument_spec
* Switch manageiq_connection to use apply_defaults
* add choices to api_version in argument_spec
* vdirect modules: fix 'import' sanity test
* Remove passing file from import skip list.
* vdirect modules: fix validate-modules warnings
- Arguments with a default should not be marked as required
- add choices in doc
* vdirect_runnable: use formatting function
* a refactor of pool member and node modules to be inline with current f5 conventions
* Added priority_group_activation to pools
* various other small convention fixes and bug fixes
* Adds gnat provisioning to bigip_provision
* Adds special handling for AFM in bigip_provision
* Add device rebooting for provisioning as necessary
* Refactored route domain module to be inline with current f5 conventions
* Minor refactors across modules
* Use arg_spec type for comparisons on default and choices
* Further improve type casting
* Make sure to capture output in more places
* Individually report invalid choices
* Update ignore.txt after resolving merge conflicts
* Clean up Grafana docs a bit
But more is needed, default values, missing choices, proper
descriptions, actual sentences :-)
* Remove validate-modules entries
Remove module from ignore lists and some documentation fix in
digital_ocean_block_storage and digital_ocean module.

* Ensure we merge doc fragments early, for comparisons
* Perform boolean conversion from arg_spec data too
* Update valdiate-modules ignore.txt due to recent changes
Enforce module deprecation.
After module has reached the end of it's deprecation cycle we will replace it with a docs stub.
* Replace deprecated modules with docs-only sub
* Use of deprecated past deprecation cycle gives meaningful message (see examples below)
* Enforce documentation.deprecation dict via `schema.py`
* Update `ansible-doc` and web docs to display documentation.deprecation
* Document that structure in `dev_guide`
* Ensure that all modules starting with `_` have a `deprecation:` block
* Ensure `deprecation:` block is only used on modules that start with `_`
* `removed_in` A string which represents when this module needs **deleting**
* CHANGELOG.md and porting_guide_2.5.rst list removed modules as well as alternatives
* CHANGELOG.md links to porting guide index
To ensure that meaningful messages are given to the user if they try to use a module at the end of it's deprecation cycle we enforce the module to contain:
```python
if __name__ == '__main__':
removed_module()
```
* Skip parameters that are being deprecated
So in most cases when parameters are deprecated, you may not want to
advertise them in the documentation. One reason for this is because
these parameters were not introduced within Ansible but predate
upstreaming them.
So this change avoids reporting parameters that are not documented and
are deprecated. It's only a small subset of the existing E322 errors.
* Add support for E323 with these changes
* Unsure about the other issues now
* Add better error message with E321
* Restore some erroneously remove files
* Readd false positives to ignore.txt
