Thomas Woerner 81143be96a Fix short_description flag in plugins, role modules and templates
Before "short description" was used in most plugins, modules and also
in the new module templates.

ansible-doc was therefore not showing the short description. To fix the
issue the flag was renamed to short_description instead.

       'ansible-doc' -l lists most idm modules as 'UNDOCUMENTED'

Writing a new Ansible FreeIPA module

A ansible-freeipa module should have:

  • Code:

    • A module file placed in plugins/modules/<ipa_module_name>.py
  • Documentation:

    • README-<module_name>.md file in the root directory and linked from the main README.md
    • Example playbooks in playbooks/<module_name>/ directory
  • Tests:

    • Test cases (also playbooks) defined in tests/<module_name>/test_<something>.yml. It's ok to have multiple files in this directory.

Use the script utils/new_module to create the stub files for a new module.
