Actual output names do not match output names in examples

[christensen143]

Description

The examples directory contains examples that have an outputs file. In the file for the PostgreSQL example the outputs are named:

# aws_security_group
output "security_group_id" {
  description = "The security group ID of the cluster"
  value       = module.aurora.security_group_id
}

The actual outputs for the module are appended with this_:

# aws_security_group
output "this_security_group_id" {
  description = "The security group ID of the cluster"
  value       = local.rds_security_group_id
}

Either the outputs need to have the this_ removed from the output name or the examples needed to amended to include this_ in the name like:

# aws_security_group
output "security_group_id" {
  description = "The security group ID of the cluster"
  value       = module.aurora.this_security_group_id
}

⚠️ Note

Before you submit an issue, please perform the following first:

1. Remove the local .terraform directory (! ONLY if state is stored remotely, which hopefully you are following that best practice!): rm -rf .terraform/
2. Re-initialize the project root to pull down modules: terraform init
3. Re-attempt your terraform plan or apply and check if the issue still persists

Versions

• Terraform: 1.0.0

• Provider(s): aws

• Module: v5.2.0

Reproduction

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Clone the examples/postgresql and run this configuration. terraform validate should throw an error saying that an object does not exist.
Change the outputs.tf file to include this_ in the names of the outputs and run it again.
