Comment

Ansible modules are like functions or standalone scripts 
which run specific tasks idempotently. 
The return value of these are JSON string in stdout and 
input depends on the type of module. 
These are used by Ansible playbooks.
There are 2 types of modules in Ansible:
•	Core Modules
The core Ansible team is responsible for maintaining these modules 
thus these come with Ansible itself. 
The issues reported are fixed on priority than those in the “extras” repo.
•	Extras Modules
The Ansible community maintains these modules so, for now, 
these are being shipped with Ansible but they might get discontinued 
in the future. 
These can be used but if there are any feature requests or issues 
they will be updated on low priority.
Now popular extra modules might enter into the core modules anytime. 
You may find these separate repos for these modules 
as ansible-modules-core and ansible-modules-extra respectively.
