### Ansible Development Notes

Modules in development follow processes documented at http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_modules_general.html.  The modules support ansible-doc and should eventually have integration tests.

When developing modules in this repository, here are a few helpful commands to sanity check the code and documentation (replace module_name with your module (e.g., intersight_objects)).  Ansible modules won't generally be pylint or pycodestyle (PEP8) clean without disabling several of the checks:
  ```
  pylint --disable=invalid-name,no-member,too-many-nested-blocks,redefined-variable-type,too-many-statements,too-many-branches,broad-except,line-too-long,missing-docstring,wrong-import-position,too-many-locals,import-error <module_name>.py
  
  pycodestyle --max-line-length 160 --config /dev/null --ignore E402 <module_name>.py
  
  ansible-doc <module_name>
  ```
