[roland-gsell]

Please verify first that your feedback is not already reported here. If possible and useful provide additional information below. This is optional however.

Provide your feedback

In your examples at docs/discovery_module.rst there is this syntax for a list of hosts:

hosts: "[my_host_0, my_host_1]"

Correct would be this:

hosts: ["my_host_0", "my_host_1"]

Thanks for reporting this @roland-gsell! Issues in the docs are the most overlooked issues, hence I really do appreciate the report! I will push a fix later, that will be available in release 4.0.0.
