How to create Aurora Serverless database cluster with secret manager in Terraform

Question

I've been reading this page: https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/aws/latest/docs/resources/rds_cluster

The example there is mainly for the provisioned database, I'm new to the serverless database, is there an Terraform example to create a serverless Aurora database cluster (SQL db), using the secret stored in the secret manager?

Many thanks.

The basic example of creating serveless aurora is:

resource "aws_rds_cluster" "default" {
  cluster_identifier      = "aurora-cluster-demo"
  engine                  = "aurora-mysql"  
  engine_mode             = "serverless"  
  database_name           = "myauroradb"  
  enable_http_endpoint    = true  
  master_username         = "root"
  master_password         = "chang333eme321"
  backup_retention_period = 1
  
  skip_final_snapshot     = true
  
  scaling_configuration {
    auto_pause               = true
    min_capacity             = 1    
    max_capacity             = 2
    seconds_until_auto_pause = 300
    timeout_action           = "ForceApplyCapacityChange"
  }  
}

I'm not sure what do you want to do with secret manager. Its not clear from your question, so I'm providing any example for it.
