Hi Team, I am writing modules and in the process of writing the DOCUMENTATION and EXAMPLE strings. Is there a way to indicate whether or not the module support check\_mode so that folks can find this out from looking at the webdocs? Thank you! – Jeremy ---

There is a ‘notes:’ (which should be an array of strings) section in the DOCUMENTATION string, but I don’t believe we have anything official in the document generator for that. ---

@James, Thank you for the prompt reply. Just wanted to make sure I didn’t miss anything as I am developing these modules. I think it would be a great addition to make to the auto-doc system, if/when you guys decide to do work in that area. Cheers, – Jeremy
