+# Here is a script to deploy cert to hashicorp vault using curl
+# (https://www.vaultproject.io/)
+#
+# it requires following environment variables:
+#
+# VAULT_PREFIX - this contains the prefix path in vault
+# VAULT_ADDR - vault requires this to find your vault server
+#
+# additionally, you need to ensure that VAULT_TOKEN is avialable
+# to access the vault server
+
+#returns 0 means success, otherwise error.
