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()
```
* compare arg+aliases between docs and argument_spec
* Add some special handling for the network modules provider options that also appear in the top level arg spec
* Fix error code for bigip_hostname
* Address merge conflicts due to changes in f5 modules
* Update validate-modules ignore based off a clean execution
* Address merge conflicts
* Address renamed module
* Address recent changes to modules
* Add ignore for ucs_ip_pool
* Update aci modules to get more reliable documentation comparison, but not mutating the module_utils aci_argument_spec
* Update ignore.txt after recent aci updates
* Add extra guard to ensure we handle provider special only for network modules
* Address additional changes to modules
* Add validation for the next to last line of a module
* Fix last error code
* Reduce to a single conditional
* Fix conditionals
* Move the final warnings statement to main() in mysql_replication
* Update validate-modules arg_spec introspection to be faster, by only mocking the imports we explicitly list
* The use of types.MethodType in redhat_subscription wasn't py3 compatible, use partial instead
* Remove argument_spec import hacks, make them errors, we can ignore them with ansible-test
* Enable the --arg-spec flag for validate-modules
* Update validation test for new copyright
Ensure new modules without the new copyright header fail
validation
Ensure existing modules without copyright in top 20 lines fail
* Add documentation of 108 error
Create label in developing modules documentation so that
the validation page can point to it
* Ensure new style copyright header passes test!
We do want to allow certain from __future__ imports in modules that make
it easier to code compatible python2 and python3. Note that
unicode_literals is specifically left out and should never be allowed.
Now that python-3.4+ allows u"" there's no good reason to use
unicode_literals.
Also switch tables in the validate_modules documentation to simple table format
* Added test for 'RETURN' field in validate-modules
* print the field being tested.
Useful when the RETURN structure is complex.
* Fixed schema after CI traceback fail
* Fixed list_string_types
* Fixed line in 319 code for RETURN
* Big testing doc refactor
* Combine all the testing documentation in to one place to make it easier to find
* Convert everything to RST
* Create testing_network guide
* Create testing landing page
* For each section detail "how to run" and "how to extend testing"
* More examples
* Lots more detail
