+
+
+Ansible modules are reusable units of magic that can be used by the Ansible API, 
+or by the `ansible` or `ansible-playbook` programs.
+
+Modules can be written in any language and are found in the path specified 
+by `ANSIBLE_LIBRARY_PATH` or the `--module-path` command line option.
+ 
+Tutorial 
+````````
+
+Let's build a module to get and set the system time.  For starters, let's build
+a module that just outputs the current time.  
+
+We are going to use Python here but any language is possible.  Only File I/O and outputing to standard
+out are required.  So, bash, C++, clojure, Python, Ruby, whatever you want
+is fine.
+
+It's obvious that you would never really need to build a module to set the system time,
+the 'command' module could already be used to do this.  However, it makes for a decent example.
+Reading the modules that come with ansible (linked above) is a great way to learn how to write
+modules.   Keep in mind, though, that some modules in ansible's source tree are internalisms,
+so look at `service` or `yum`, and don't stare too close into things like `async_wrapper` or
+you'll turn to stone.  Nobody ever executes async_wrapper directly.
+
+Ok, let's get going with an example.  We'll use Python.  For starters, save this as a file named `time`::
+
+    #!/usr/bin/python
+
+    import datetime
+    import json
+
+    date = str(datetime.datetime.now())
+    print json.dumps({
+        "time" : date
+    })
+
+Testing Modules
+```````````````
+
+There's a useful test script in the source checkout for ansible::
+
+    git clone git@github.com:ansible/ansible.git
+    chmod +x ansible/hacking/test-module
+
+Let's run the script you just wrote with that::
+
+    ansible/hacking/test-module ./time
+
+You should see output that looks something like this::
+
+    {u'time': u'2012-03-14 22:13:48.539183'}
+
+If you did not, you might have a typo in your module, so recheck it and try again
+
+Reading Input
+`````````````
+
+Let's modify the module to allow setting the current time.  We'll do this by seeing
+if a key value pair in the form `time=<string>` is passed in to the module.
+
+Ansible internally saves arguments to a arguments file.  So we must read the file
+and parse it.  The arguments file is just a string, so any form of arguments are legal.
+Here we'll do some basic parsing to treat the input as key=value.
+
+The example usage we are trying to achieve to set the time is::
+
+   time time="March 14 22:10"
+
+If no time parameter is set, we'll just leave the time as is and return the current time.
+
+.. note:
+   This is obviously an unrealistic idea for a module.  You'd most likely just
+   use the shell module.  However, it probably makes a decent tutorial.
+
+Let's look at the code.  Read the comments as we'll explain as we go.  Note that this
+highly verbose because it's intended as an educational example.  You can write modules 
+a lot shorter than this::
+
+    #!/usr/bin/python
+
+    # import some python modules that we'll use.  These are all
+    # available in Python's core
+
+    import datetime
+    import sys
+    import json
+    import os
+    import shlex
+
+    # read the argument string from the arguments file
+    args_file = sys.argv[1]
+    args_data = file(args_file).read()
+
+    # for this module, we're going to do key=value style arguments
+    # this is up to each module to decide what it wants, but all
+    # core modules besides 'command' and 'shell' take key=value
+    # so this is highly recommended
+    
+    arguments = shlex.split(args_data)
+    for arg in arguments:
+
+        # ignore any arguments without an equals in it
+        if arg.find("=") != -1:
+ 
+            (key, value) = arg.split("=")
+
+            # if setting the time, the key 'time'
+            # will contain the value we want to set the time to
+
+            if key == "time":
+
+                # now we'll affect the change.  Many modules
+                # will strive to be 'idempotent', meaning they
+                # will only make changes when the desired state
+                # expressed to the module does not match

+                # or 'yum' in the main git tree for an example
+                # of how that might look.
+
+                rc = os.system("date -s \"%s\"" % value)
+
+                # always handle all possible errors
+                #
+                # when returning a failure, include 'failed'
+                # in the return data, and explain the failure
+                # in 'msg'.  Both of these conventions are
+                # required however additional keys and values
+                # can be added.
+
+                if rc != 0:
+                    print json.dumps({
+                        "failed" : True,
+                        "msg"    : "failed setting the time"
+                    })
+                    sys.exit(1)
+
+                # when things do not fail, we do not
+                # have any restrictions on what kinds of
+                # data are returned, but it's always a 
+                # good idea to include whether or not
+                # a change was made, as that will allow
+                # notifiers to be used in playbooks.  
+
+                date = str(datetime.datetime.now())
+                print json.dumps({
+                    "time" : date,
+                    "changed" : True
+                })
+                sys.exit(0)
+
+    # if no parameters are sent, the module may or 
+    # may not error out, this one will just
+    # return the time
+
+    date = str(datetime.datetime.now())
+    print json.dumps({
+        "time" : date
+    })
+
+Let's test that module::
+
+    ../ansible/hacking/test-module ./rst/time time=\"March 14 12:23\"
+
+This should return something like::
+
+    {"changed": true, "time": "2012-03-14 12:23:00.000307"}
+
+
+Common Pitfalls
+```````````````
+
+If writing a module in Python and you have managed nodes running
+Python 2.4 or lower, this is generally a good idea, because
+json isn't in the Python standard library until 2.5.::
+
+    try:
+        import json
+    except ImportError:
+        import simplejson as json
+
+You should also never do this in a module::
+
+    print "some status message"
+    
+Because the output is supposed to be valid JSON.  Except that's not quite true,
+but we'll get to that later.
+
+Conventions
+-----------
+
+As a reminder from the example code above, here are some basic conventions
+and guidelines:
+
+* Include a minimum of dependencies if possible.  If there are dependencies, document them at the top of the module file
+
+* Modules must be self contained in one file to be auto-transferred by ansible
+
+* If packaging modules in an RPM, they only need to be installed on the control machine and should be dropped into /usr/share/ansible.  This is entirely optional.
+
+* Modules should return JSON or key=value results all on one line.  JSON is best if you can do JSON.  All return types must be hashes (dictionaries) although they can be nested.
+
+* In the event of failure, a key of 'failed' should be included, along with a string explanation in 'msg'.  Modules that raise tracebacks (stacktraces) are generally considered 'poor' modules, though Ansible can deal with these returns and will automatically convert anything unparseable into a failed result.
+
+* Return codes are actually not signficant, but continue on with 0=success and non-zero=failure for reasons of future proofing.
+
+* As results from many hosts will be aggregrated at once, modules should return only relevant output.  Returning the entire contents of a log file is generally bad form.
+
+
+Shorthand Vs JSON
+-----------------
+
+To make it easier to write modules in bash and in cases where a JSON
+module might not be available, it is acceptable for a module to return
+key=value output all on one line, like this.   The Ansible parser
+will know what to do.::
+
+    somekey=1 somevalue=two favcolor=red
+
+If you're writing a module in Python or Ruby or whatever, though, returning
+JSON is probably the simplest way to go.
+
+
+Sharing Your Module
+```````````````````
+
+If you think your module is generally useful to others, Ansible is preparing
+an 'ansible-contrib' repo.  Stop by the mailing list and we'll help you to
+get your module included.  Contrib modules can be implemented in a variety
+of languages.  Including a README with your module is a good idea so folks
+can understand what arguments it takes and so on.  We would like to build
+up as many of these as possible in as many languages as possible.
+
+`Ansible Mailing List <http://groups.google.com/group/ansible-project>`_
+
+Getting Your Module Into Core
+`````````````````````````````
+
+High-quality modules with minimal dependencies 
+can be included in the core, but core modules (just due to the programming
+preferences of the developers) will need to be implemented in Python.
+Stop by the mailing list to inquire about requirements.
