+Units
+=====
+For api docs, see :class:`juju.unit.Unit`.
+
+
+Running Commands
+----------------
+Run arbitrary commands on a unit with the
+:meth:`juju.unit.Unit.run` method. This method blocks
+the current coroutine until a result is available, and
+returns a :class:`juju.action.Action` instance.
+
+
+.. code:: python
+
+  from juju.model import Model
+
+  model = Model()
+  await model.connect_current()
+
+  app = await model.deploy(
+      'ubuntu',
+      application_name='ubuntu',
+      series='trusty',
+      channel='stable',
+  )
+
+  for unit in app.units:
+      action = await unit.run('unit-get public-address')
+      print(action.results)
+
+      action = await unit.run('uname -a')
+      print(action.results)
+
+
+Running Actions
+---------------
+Run actions on a unit with the
+:meth:`juju.unit.Unit.run_action` method. This method
+returns a :class:`juju.action.Action` instance immediately. To block until
+the action completes, use the :meth:`juju.action.Action.wait` method, as
+in the example below.
+
+
+.. code:: python
+
+  from juju.model import Model
+
+  model = Model()
+  await model.connect_current()
+
+  app = await model.deploy(
+      'git',
+      application_name='git',
+      series='trusty',
+      channel='stable',
+  )
+
+  for unit in app.units:
+      # run the 'add-repo' action, passing a 'repo' param
+      action = await unit.run_action('add-repo', repo='myrepo')
+      # wait for the action to complete
+      action = await action.wait()
+
+      print(action.results)
