How to use this module? about terraform-aws-vault HOT 3 OPEN

Or am I supposed to copy main.tf, variables.tf and outputs.tf locally and create my own module based on the submodules you provide in the modules/ directory?

Yes. The module you want to use is in fact the vault-cluster module located at /modules. The main.tf at this root dir is just one example on how to use it. There are other examples located at /examples

@Etiene thanks for clarifying, I eventually also assumed by going through all issues and pr's and found this comment: #26 (comment)

The code in the modules folder is production-ready. The code in the examples folder, and the root—which is also an example—is not necessarily production ready.

However, to somebody who just discovered this repository it is very unclear how it should be used.

Additionally if you visit the Terraform module registry page for this module, the example that comes up at the top right indicates that the files in the root of this repository are actually defining the module (which also adds to the confusion): https://registry.terraform.io/modules/hashicorp/vault/aws/0.10.3

I will then proceed with defining my custom vault project based on /modules/vault_cluster.

Yes, I understand. Unfortunately the terraform registry requires .tf files in the root. For simple repos, those files are the module, for bigger repos, those are examples and it isn't clear from the registry. There's probably a way to improve this, since it seems this confusion is common! I'll see what we can do to make it clearer in this repo!
