   - Containers must have a unique name. If you attempt to create a container
     with a name that already existed in the users namespace the module will
     simply return as "unchanged".
+  - There are two ways to can run commands in containers.
+    - Use the command module, for example:
+      - name: Install python in the created container
+        command: lxc exec my-ubuntu -- apt install -y python
+    - Use the ansible lxd connection plugin bundled in Ansible 2.1 or later.
+      - In order to use this method, first you need to install python in the container
+        with the above method. See the first example below.
+  - You can copy a file in the localhost to the created container
+    running `command: lxc file push filename container_name/dir/filename`
+    on localhost. See the first example below.
+  - You can copy a file in the creatd container to the localhost
+    running `command: lxc file pull container_name/dir/filename filename`.
+    See the first example below.
