Ansible's modules documentation is auto-generated from the code. Hence, there is a standardized (across all ansible's modules) way to extract their parameters/outputs. See https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/modules/files/iso_extract.py https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/mo... for example: DOCUMENTATION is a yaml snippet that follows their documentation schema to tell you about all the module's input parameters. EXAMPLES gives you some usage examples. RETURN documents the outputs. A proper IDE plugin could parse those snippets for each module and do some pretty nice autocompletion/inline documentation for you...
