Teleport Interview Challenge

This repository contains my Teleport interview challenge.

Continuous integration

This repository uses Github actions for continuous integration on pull requests and merges to master. Actions taken by CI are defined in the Makefile and can be run locally by running make ci. You will need to ensure you have a clean working directory as a dirty working directory can interfere with the up-to-date checks for generated files that get committed to the repository. This is most easily done with git stash push -u.

Requirements

Hermit is used to manage any build tools required to use this repository. Hermit self-installs and it installs any tools when they are first used or when they are upgraded.

The only dependency is a basic Linux installation (hermit also runs on Darwin but the code in this repository will not as it will use features specific to the Linux kernel).

Hermit can be activated in your shell by running:

source bin/activate-hermit

which will put the bin/ directory from this repository in your path. When you are done, run:

deactivate-hermit

Once the hermit environment is activated, you can run make help to see the make targets available. Alternatively, you can run bin/make help without activating hermit, or if you already have make installed globally on your system, you can run make help and the Makefile will activate hermit for the duration of the make targets executed, using the tools in the bin/ directory.

Design

The design is documented in doc/design.md. Also included is a protobuf specification for a service JobExecutor.
