Infra recruitment test

Exercice 1: Terraform

Requirements: Terraform (download and install instructions)

Context

They are two files in the repository:

1. database_production.tf: contains variables and call the database.tf
2. module_database/: create a database

The actual code already create a postgresql database in US with an auto-resize disk. The goal of the exercise is to modify these files so that they create a second database to store GDPR data.

Needs

• RDBMS: MySQL 5.7
• Disk size: 20GB
• Instance: db-f1-micro
• Region: usually us-central1 and eu-west3

You can modify the code to make it more clear but take care : this module could be used elsewhere in the code, be careful not to change its default behavior.

Documentation needed: https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/google/r/sql_database_instance.html

Setup

• Install Terraform
• Clone the repository
• Execute terraform init in the exercice_1 repository
• Execute terraform validate. It should work
• Modify files to create the new database

Expected

user@host:~/git/infra-recruitment-public/exercice_1 $ terraform validate
Success! The configuration is valid.

Exercice 2: scripting

Requirements: Bash, Python or JavaScript/TypeScript

Context

Write a script that will:

• Count from [start] to [end],
• Arguments:
  • command (string): default, reverse or help
  • start (int)
  • end (int)
  • start < end

Expected

./count-script default 1 3

1
2
3

./count-script reverse 0 2

2
1
0

./count-script help

count-script: default|reverse START END
START and END positive integer as START < END

Just display always the same error message when the arguments are bad.

./count-script whatever else argument 

count-script: default|reverse START END
START and END positive integer as START < END
