resilient-devops

Background:

Goals of the job / project:

• write a script (ideally using AWS CLI for reproducibility) that starts up, connects and deploys a dockerized app (located in Github, or zipped on S3, whatever is easiest) and required AWS services
• apply a certificate to the hosted app so that chrome users can access webcam via https (and confirm that webcam access requested in Chrome works)

Deploy a dockerized web app:

• I have a dockerized application that I want to deploy via Elastic Beanstalk
• There are associated services / databases that need to be connected to the container (e.g. RDS, Lambda, Cognito)
• I want an AWS CLI script that deploys the above in a repeatable way

App requires webcam access:

• I have app functionality that requires a user's webcam access (e.g. in Chrome)
• For webcam access, Chrome requires https with a verified certificate (otherwise it blocks the site)
• I want to confirm that I can access my webcam in Chrome in the deployed app

Prerequisites for this work

• I will provide a functioning, dockerized app (can also be run locally) where webcam access works correctly on localhost (Chrome only allows localhost and https)
• I will be available to troubleshoot any issues with you (I am a back-end engineer w/ novice AWS experience)

Enviromental Setup on Local System(Linux)

• Install the follow packages in an ubuntu 18.04 box

  # System update, and tools installations
  sudo apt update
  
  sudo apt upgrade -y
  
  sudo apt install snap
  
  sudo snap install git-ubuntu --classic
  
  
  #Git configuraton
  git config --global user.name "<Your first and last name>"
  git config --global user.email "<your email>"
  

• Generate ssh keys to authenticate to github

  ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "<your email>"
  
  #Copy the output of this command
  cat ~/.ssh/<"Name of the Key create".pub> #example is_rsa.pub
  
  

  Add this to your github account and test if this works.
