-Translating Documentation
-=========================
-
-If you wish to help translate the Salt documentation to your language, please
-head over to the `Transifex`_ website and `signup`__ for an account.
-
-Once registered, head over to the `Salt Translation Project`__, and either
-click on **Request Language** if you can't find yours, or, select the language
-for which you wish to contribute and click **Join Team**.
-
-`Transifex`_ provides some useful reading resources on their `support
-domain`__, namely, some useful articles `directed to translators`__.
-
-
-.. __: https://www.transifex.com/signup/
-.. __: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/salt/
-.. __: http://support.transifex.com/
-.. __: http://support.transifex.com/customer/portal/topics/414107-translators/articles
-
-
-Building A Localized Version of the Documentation
--------------------------------------------------
-
-While you're working on your translation on `Transifex`_, you might want to
-have a look at how it's rendering.
-
-
-Install The Transifex Client
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-To interact with the `Transifex`_ web service you will need to install the
-`transifex-client`__:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    pip install transifex-client
-
-
-.. __: https://github.com/transifex/transifex-client
-
-
-
-Configure The Transifex Client
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Once installed, you will need to set it up on your computer. We created a
-script to help you with that:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    .scripts/setup-transifex-config
-
-
-
-Download Remote Translations
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-There's a little script which simplifies the download process of the
-translations(which isn't that complicated in the first place).
-So, let's assume you're translating ``pt_PT``, Portuguese(Portugal). To
-download the translations, execute from the ``doc/`` directory of your Salt
-checkout:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-
-    make download-translations SPHINXLANG=pt_PT
-
-
-To download ``pt_PT``, Portuguese(Portugal), and ``nl``, Dutch, you can use the
-helper script directly:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    .scripts/download-translation-catalog pt_PT nl
-
-
-Build Localized Documentation
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-After the download process finishes, which might take a while, the next step is
-to build a localized version of the documentation.
-Following the ``pt_PT`` example above:
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-
-    make html SPHINXLANG=pt_PT
-
-
-View Localized Documentation
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Open your browser, point it to the local documentation path and check the
-localized output you've just build.

+=========================
+
+A new :py:func:`state <salt.states.keystore>` and
+:py:func:`execution module <salt.modules.keystore>` for manaing Java
+Keystore files is now included. It allows for adding/removing/listing
+as well as managing keystore files.

+
+
+Troubleshooting Jinja map files
+===============================
+
+A new :py:func:`execution module <salt.modules.jinja>` for ``map.jinja`` troubleshooting
+has been added.
+
+Assuming the map is loaded in your formula SLS as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: jinja
+
+  {% from "myformula/map.jinja" import myformula with context %}
+
+The following command can be used to load the map and check the results:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  salt myminion jinja.load_map myformula/map.jinja myformula
+
+The module can be also used to test ``json`` and ``yaml`` maps:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+  salt myminion jinja.import_yaml myformula/defaults.yaml
+
+  salt myminion jinja.import_json myformula/defaults.json
+
+
+Slot Syntax Updates
+===================
+
+The slot syntax has been updated to support parsing dictionary responses and to append text.

-        Standard eauth: allow jsmith to auth via pam, and execute any command
-        on server web1
-        external_auth:
-          pam:
-            jsmith:
-              - web1:
-                - .*
-
-        Django eauth: Import the django library, dynamically load the Django
-        model called 'model'.  That model returns a data structure that
-        matches the above for standard eauth.  This is what determines
-        who can do what to which machines
-
-        django:
-          ^model:
-            <stuff returned from django>
-
-        Active Directory Extended:
-
-        Users in the AD group 'webadmins' can run any command on server1
-        Users in the AD group 'webadmins' can run test.ping and service.restart
-        on machines that have a computer object in the AD 'webservers' OU
-        Users in the AD group 'webadmins' can run commands defined in the
-        custom attribute (custom attribute not implemented yet, this is for
-        future use)
-          ldap:
-             webadmins%:  <all users in the AD 'webadmins' group>

-An engine that reads messages from Hipchat and sends them to the Salt
-event bus.  Alternatively Salt commands can be sent to the Salt master
-via Hipchat by setting the control parameter to ``True`` and using command
-prefaced with a ``!``. Only token key is required, but room and control
-keys make the engine interactive.

+        This parameter also applies to index aliases that point to a missing or closed index.
+
+    expand_wildcards
+        (Optional, string) Controls what kind of indices that wildcard expressions can expand to.
+
+        Valid values are::
+
+            all - Expand to open and closed indices.
+            open - Expand only to open indices.
+            closed - Expand only to closed indices.
+            none - Wildcard expressions are not accepted.
+
+    The defaults settings for the above parameters depend on the API being used.
+
+    CLI example::
+
+        salt myminion elasticsearch.flush_synced index='index1,index2' ignore_unavailable=True allow_no_indices=True expand_wildcards='all'
+    '''

-
-.. versionadded:: 2015.5.0
-
-:configuration: This module can be used by either passing an api key and version
-    directly or by specifying both in a configuration profile in the salt
-    master/minion config.
-
-    It is possible to use a different API than http://api.hipchat.com,
-    by specifying the API URL in config as api_url, or by passing the value directly.
-
-    For example:
-
-    .. code-block:: yaml
-
-        hipchat:
-          api_key: peWcBiMOS9HrZG15peWcBiMOS9HrZG15
-          api_version: v1
-
-    Custom API Example:
-
-    .. code-block:: yaml
-
-        hipchat:
-          api_url: http://api.hipchat.myteam.com
-          api_key: peWcBiMOS9HrZG15peWcBiMOS9HrZG15
-          api_version: v2

+Access Salt's elemental release code-names.
+
+.. versionadded:: Neon
+
+Salt's feature release schedule is based on the Periodic Table, as described
+in the :ref:`Version Numbers <version-numbers>` documentation.
+
+When a feature was added (or removed) in a specific release, it can be
+difficult to build out future-proof functionality that is dependent on
+a naming scheme that moves.
+
+For example, a state syntax needs to change to support an option that will be
+removed in the future, but there are many Minion versions in use across an
+infrastructure. It would be handy to use some Jinja syntax to check for these
+instances to perform one state syntax over another.
+
+A simple example might be something like the following:
+
+.. code-block:: jinja
+
+    {# a boolean check #}
+    {% set option_deprecated = salt['salt_version.less_than']("Sodium") %}
+
+    {% if option_deprecated %}
+      <use old syntax>
+    {% else %}
+      <use new syntax>
+    {% endif %}

-Return salt data via hipchat.
-
-.. versionadded:: 2015.5.0
-
-The following fields can be set in the minion conf file::
-
-    hipchat.room_id (required)
-    hipchat.api_key (required)
-    hipchat.api_version (required)
-    hipchat.api_url (optional)
-    hipchat.from_name (required)
-    hipchat.color (optional)
-    hipchat.notify (optional)
-    hipchat.profile (optional)
-    hipchat.url (optional)
-
-.. note::
-
-    When using Hipchat's API v2, ``api_key`` needs to be assigned to the room with the
-    "Label" set to what you would have been set in the hipchat.from_name field. The v2
-    API disregards the ``from_name`` in the data sent for the room notification and uses
-    the Label assigned through the Hipchat control panel.
-
-Alternative configuration values can be used by prefacing the configuration.
-Any values not found in the alternative configuration will be pulled from
-the default location::
-
-    hipchat.room_id
-    hipchat.api_key
-    hipchat.api_version
-    hipchat.api_url
-    hipchat.from_name
-
-Hipchat settings may also be configured as:
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-    hipchat:
-      room_id: RoomName
-      api_url: https://hipchat.myteam.con
-      api_key: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
-      api_version: v1
-      from_name: user@email.com
-
-    alternative.hipchat:

-      api_version: v1
-      api_url: api.hipchat.com
-      from_name: user@email.com
-
-To use the HipChat returner, append '--return hipchat' to the salt command.
-
-.. code-block:: bash
-

+Return salt data via Slack using Incoming Webhooks
+
+:codeauthor: `Carlos D. Álvaro <github@cdalvaro.io>`
+
+The following fields can be set in the minion conf file:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+    slack_webhook.webhook (required, the webhook id. Just the part after: 'https://hooks.slack.com/services/')
+    slack_webhook.success_title (optional, short title for succeeded states. By default: '{id} | Succeeded')
+    slack_webhook.failure_title (optional, short title for failed states. By default: '{id} | Failed')
+    slack_webhook.author_icon (optional, a URL that with a small 16x16px image. Must be of type: GIF, JPEG, PNG, and BMP)
+    slack_webhook.show_tasks (optional, show identifiers for changed and failed tasks. By default: False)
+
+Alternative configuration values can be used by prefacing the configuration.
+Any values not found in the alternative configuration will be pulled from
+the default location:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+    slack_webhook.webhook
+    slack_webhook.success_title
+    slack_webhook.failure_title
+    slack_webhook.author_icon
+    slack_webhook.show_tasks
+
+Slack settings may also be configured as:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+    slack_webhook:
+        webhook: T00000000/B00000000/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
+        success_title: [{id}] | Success
+        failure_title: [{id}] | Failure
+        author_icon: https://platform.slack-edge.com/img/default_application_icon.png

+
+    alternative.slack_webhook:
+        webhook: T00000000/C00000000/YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
+        show_tasks: false
+
+To use the Slack returner, append '--return slack_webhook' to the salt command.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    salt '*' test.ping --return slack_webhook
+
+To use the alternative configuration, append '--return_config alternative' to the salt command.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    salt '*' test.ping --return slack_webhook --return_config alternative

+
+:configuration: This module requires Azure Resource Manager credentials to be passed as a dictionary of
+keyword arguments to the ``connection_auth`` parameter in order to work properly. Since the authentication
+parameters are sensitive, it's recommended to pass them to the states via pillar.
+
+    Required provider parameters:
+
+    if using username and password:
+      * ``subscription_id``
+      * ``username``
+      * ``password``
+
+    if using a service principal:
+      * ``subscription_id``
+      * ``tenant``
+      * ``client_id``
+      * ``secret``
+
+    Optional provider parameters:
+
+    **cloud_environment**: Used to point the cloud driver to different API endpoints, such as Azure GovCloud. Possible values:
+      * ``AZURE_PUBLIC_CLOUD`` (default)
+      * ``AZURE_CHINA_CLOUD``
+      * ``AZURE_US_GOV_CLOUD``
+      * ``AZURE_GERMAN_CLOUD``
+
+    Example Pillar for Azure Resource Manager authentication:
+
+    .. code-block:: yaml
+
+        azurearm:
+            user_pass_auth:
+                subscription_id: 3287abc8-f98a-c678-3bde-326766fd3617
+                username: fletch
+                password: 123pass
+            mysubscription:
+                subscription_id: 3287abc8-f98a-c678-3bde-326766fd3617
+                tenant: ABCDEFAB-1234-ABCD-1234-ABCDEFABCDEF
+                client_id: ABCDEFAB-1234-ABCD-1234-ABCDEFABCDEF

 Execution of Salt modules from within states
 ============================================
 
+.. note::
+
+    There are two styles of calling ``module.run``. **The legacy style will no
+    longer be available starting in the Sodium release.** To opt-in early to the
+    new style you must add the following to your ``/etc/salt/minion`` config
+    file:
+
+    .. code-block:: yaml
+
+        use_superseded:
+          - module.run
+
 With `module.run` these states allow individual execution module calls to be
-made via states. To call a single module function use a :mod:`module.run <salt.states.module.run>`
-state:
+made via states. Here's a contrived example, to show you how it's done:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-    mine.send:
+    # New Style
+    test.random_hash:
       module.run:
-        - network.interfaces
+        - test.random_hash:
+          - size: 42
+          - hash_type: sha256
 
-Note that this example is probably unnecessary to use in practice, since the
-``mine_functions`` and ``mine_interval`` config parameters can be used to
-schedule updates for the mine (see :ref:`here <salt-mine>` for more info).
+    # Legacy Style
+    test.random_hash:
+      module.run:
+        - size: 42
+        - hash_type: sha256
 
-It is sometimes desirable to trigger a function call after a state is executed,
-for this the :mod:`module.wait <salt.states.module.wait>` state can be used:
+In the new style, the state ID (``test.random_hash``, in this case) is
+irrelevant when using ``module.run``. It could have very well been written:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-    fetch_out_of_band:
+    Generate a random hash:
       module.run:
-        - git.fetch:
-          - cwd: /path/to/my/repo
-          - user: myuser
-          - opts: '--all'
+        - test.random_hash:
+          - size: 42
+          - hash_type: sha256
+
+For a simple state like that it's not a big deal, but if the module you're
+using has certain parameters, things can get cluttered, fast. Using the
+contrived custom module (stuck in ``/srv/salt/_modules/foo.py``, or your
+configured file_roots_):
 
-Another example:
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    def bar(name, names, fun, state, saltenv):
+        return "Name: {name} Names: {names} Fun: {fun} State: {state} Saltenv: {saltenv}".format(**locals())
+
+Your legacy state has to look like this:
 
 .. code-block:: yaml
 
-    mine.send:
+    # Legacy style
+    Unfortunate example:
+      module.run:
+      - name: foo.bar
+      - m_name: Some name
+      - m_names:
+        - Such names
+        - very wow
+      - m_state: Arkansas
+      - m_fun: Such fun
+      - m_saltenv: Salty
+
+With the new style it's much cleaner:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    # New style
+    Better:
+      module.run:
+      - foo.bar:
+        - name: Some name
+        - names:
+          - Such names
+          - very wow
+        - state: Arkansas
+        - fun: Such fun
+        - saltenv: Salty
+
+The new style also allows multiple modules in one state. For instance, you can
+do this:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    Do many things:
+      module.run:
+        - test.random_hash:
+          - size: 10
+          - hash_type: md5
+        # Note the `:` at the end
+        - test.true:
+        - test.arg:
+          - this
+          - has
+          - args
+          - and: kwargs
+          - isn't: that neat?
+        # Note the `:` at the end, too
+        - test.version:
+        - test.fib:
+          - 4
+
+Where in the legacy style you would have had to split your states like this:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    test.random_hash:
+      module.run:
+        - size: 10
+        - hash_type: md5
+
+    test.nop:
+      module.run
+
+    test.arg:
+      module.run:
+        - args:
+          - this
+          - has
+          - args
+        - kwargs:
+            and: kwargs
+            isn't: that neat?
+
+    test.version:
+      module.run
+
+Another difference is that in the legacy style, unconsumed arguments to the
+``module`` state were simply passed into the module function being executed:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    show off module.run with args:
+      module.run:
+        - name: test.random_hash
+        - size: 42
+        - hash_type: sha256
+
+The new style is much more explicit, with the arguments and keyword arguments
+being nested under the name of the function:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    show off module.run with args:
       module.run:
-        - network.ip_addrs:
-          - interface: eth0
+        # Note the lack of `name: `, and trailing `:`
+        - test.random_hash:
+          - size: 42
+          - hash_type: sha256
 
-And more complex example:
+If the function takes ``*args``, they can be passed in as well:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    args and kwargs:
+      module.run:
+        - test.arg:
+          - isn't
+          - this
+          - fun
+          - this: that
+          - salt: stack
+
+Modern Examples

+Here are some other examples using the modern ``module.run``:

-With the previous `module.run` there are several differences:
