Hi, thanks for the great tutorial.

I got a bit stuck on the initial setup, having never heard of keybase before (and still not really understanding what it is). I eventually got it working through the following steps:

• Install keybase (duh)
• Create an account
• Open up the People tab, go to Edit Profile
• Click "Add pgp key"
• Input fake email
• Generate the key
• Close keybase (but DO NOT log out)

Now when running terraform apply, the keybase_id to give is your keybase username. As I understand it, terraform will query your local keybase install and get a pgp key from it.

It might be useful to add these steps to the tutorial - either way, hopefully this issue will help others.

Hi Sriram,

Thanks for putting it all together in large comprehensive documents. Doing serverless with Terraform is way too hard and should be easier if you need to do more than just hello-world, and it is a really great idea to break the journey down into pieces.

The thing which I wanted to propose (in a rather inappropriate way, I know!), was to mention alternative projects Terraform users may benefit from:

• Doing serverless with Terraform - http://serverless.tf/ ( source: https://github.com/antonbabenko/serverless.tf )
• Playground code: https://github.com/antonbabenko/serverless.tf-playground
• Terraform AWS Lambda module (very much complete) - https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-lambda

PS: I apologize for the initial marketing spam (initial text of this issue). Make this a marketing spam was certainly not my goal.

Here, the lambda-tf-bucket corresponds to a local name that can be used for referencing in terraform code. The actual bucket will be created with name lambda-tf-tutorial-bucket.

I think that should be “the aws_s3_bucket”.
