Unclear documentation and VaultInvalidConfigError

[alzaki-clgx]

The Wiki does not provide a basic example to answer the following:

"I have VAULT_TOKEN, VAULT_ADDR, and I provide the path in the following code:

const Value = await vault({
      method: 'read',
      path: '.../.../.../KEY'
    })

These three things should be enough to retrieve a value from my vault's kv pair, ergo what is an example of the simplest config that need only these 3 things to make my app not land me in the same puddle as this person: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76114726/vaultinvalidconfigerror-how-can-i-add-a-simple-config-to-typescriptss-vault-ap"

Secondly, I read the docs and realize that I should first create a vault-api instance

However as seen above my 2023.1 IntelliJ with Version 4.9.5 TypeScript doesn't know what create is.
I haveimport vault from 'vault-api'; and I got that from npmjs

Yes this documentation is very sparse, and I am left with no idea how to make a simple "Hello World"-level example program work. The code snippers given don't work and I don't know what else is needed.

Please document better!

I emailed SBR but no response yet, I am compelled to open a Pull Request but until then I'm going to use https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65702556/vault-hashicorp-curl-equivalent-of-vault-read
