+module: pkgng
+short_description: Package manager for FreeBSD >= 9.0
+description:
+    - Manage binary packages for FreeBSD using 'pkgng' which
+      is available in versions after 9.0.
+version_added: "1.2"
+options:
+    name:
+        description:
+            - name of package to install/remove
+        required: true
+    state:
+        description:
+            - state of the package
+        choices: [ 'present', 'absent' ]
+        required: false
+        default: present
+    cached:
+        description:
+            - use local package base or try to fetch an updated one
+        choices: [ 'yes', 'no' ]
+        required: false
+        default: no
+    pkgsite:
+        description:
+            - specify packagesite to use for downloading packages, if
+              not specified, use settings from /usr/local/etc/pkg.conf
+        required: false
+author: bleader
+notes:
+    - When using pkgsite, be careful that already in cache packages won't be downloaded again.
+examples:
+    - code: "pkgng: name=foo state=present"
+      description: install package foo"
+    - code: "pkgng: name=foo state=absent"
+      description: remove package foo
+    - code: "pkgng: name=foo,bar state=absent"
+      description: remove packages foo and bar
