This is the last of the sets of changes I plan on making now.

If you accept this, would you consider creating a 2.2.0 release tag? Thanks.

@richfromm Thanks for the update!

I tried to add the module to ansible-galaxy but it seems they don't support installation of lookup plugins. I might be mistaken but I couldn't find how to add it.

Ansible galaxy refers to two different things. There's the website at https://galaxy.ansible.com/ for sharing roles, and the command line tool ansible-galaxy that can install roles from either the official website, or from regular version control. More details at http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/galaxy.html

Personally, I've never used the website. The reason I added the edits I did in feature/ansible-galaxy was to support pointing at https://github.com/jhaals/ansible-vault in the requirements.yml file of an Ansible deploy. This I have tested.

I did not test, and hadn't even thought about, adding this lookup plugin to the Galaxy website. If you say it doesn't work, I'll have to just take your word for it.

Would you like me to clarify some of this in the README.md file? It looks like currently it's not addressed at all.
