How to refer to resource created via module in same file?

Here is the setup

Here is the code

locals {
    globals = jsondecode(file("${path.module}/../../../globals.json"))
}

module "cloudfront_distribution" {
    source                          = "../../../modules/cloudfront-distribution/"
    env                             = "prod"
    resource_name                   = "www-example-com"
    cloudfront_domain_name          = "www.example.com"
    cloudfront_domain_aliases       = ["www.example.com"]
    origin_domain_name              = "app.example-origin.com"
    subdomain_name                  = ""
    price_class                     = "PriceClass_100"
    origin_https_port               = 443
    origin_http_port                = 80
    origin_ssl_protocols            = ["TLSv1.2"]
    is_route53_record_needed        = false
    is_prerender_function_attached  = true
}


resource "aws_route53_record" "www_example_com" {
    zone_id         = "123456"
    name            = "www"
    type            = "CNAME"
    ttl             = 5
    records         = [module.cloudfront_distribution.domain_name]
}

I am getting an error in the last line where I am trying to reference to the domain name of the CloudFront created to create the route53 record. This domain name is something like this d8493jg8r.cloudfront.net

You have to declare the distribution as an output inside the module. Then you can reference the module's outputs at the top level.
