✨ Feature Request: Dedicated module for managing policies

[nwerker]

SUMMARY

Although I am sure it could be archived with the vault_write module, maybe it would be beneficial to have a dedicated vault policies module. This, in tandem with the existing PKI certificate module, would be perfect to streamline the management of vault client certificates for client authentication against vault.

ISSUE TYPE

• Feature Idea

COMPONENT NAME

Not yet defined

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Additional module for the management (creation, management, deletion) of ACL Policies within vault. Supporting things like idempotence and maybe even ansible check mode.

Hi @nwerker , this certainly sounds like it would be a great addition!

For other readers I'll link to my comment on your other feature request so as not to repeat it:

• ✨ Feature Request: Dedicated Module for KV secrets #331 (comment)

tl;dr: I'd love to help a contributor add this kind of thing but I don't know if I'll have time to do it myself.

[nwerker]

@briantist completely understandable as mentioned in #331!

I've been working with this module for a while now and willing to make a pr for this if it's still wanted. I've also been planning on building one for entities (with groups)

That would be great! Please see the contributing guide in the collection docs and let me know if you have any questions or need help getting started.
