Related question.

1. We also have the `ec2-autoscale-group` module vendored as a component and it doesn’t contain a `component.yaml` file so `atmos-component-updater` doesn’t pick it up. Does this mean we should create our own or is there a way to generate this file on the fly ?
2. Also, we have to manually copy the `<http://providers.tf|providers.tf>` mixin into this. Just checking if this is the “correct” way to do this.


```    - component: "ec2-autoscale-group"
      source: "<http://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-ec2-autoscale-group?ref=v{{.Version}}|github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-ec2-autoscale-group?ref=v{{.Version}}>"
      version: "0.42.0"
      targets:
        - "components/terraform/{{.Component}}"
      excluded_paths:
        - "**/.git*"
        - "**/examples"
        - "**/test"
        - "**/*.yaml"
        - "**/LICENSE"
        - "**/README.md"
    - component: "ec2-autoscale-group-mixin"
      source: "mixins/providers.tf"
      targets:
        - "components/terraform/ec2-autoscale-group"```

• modules don't have `providers.tf`, so you need to add it to the vendor file (which you did)
• since it's not a component, it also does not have `component.yaml` - you can create it and add to the folder, or try using the new Atmos `generate` feature to generate the file from the config in the component YAML (see <https://atmos.tools/examples/generate-files>)
let me know how it goes
