Secret Server Coding Task

Introduction

Your task is to implement a secret server (similar to Saltify). The secret server can be used to store and share secrets using the random generated URL. But the secret can be read only a limited number of times after that it will expire and won’t be available. The secret may have TTL. After the expiration time the secret won’t be available anymore. You can find the detailed API documentation in the swagger.yaml file. We recommend to use Swagger or any other OpenAPI implementation to read the documentation.

Task

Implementation: You have to implement the whole Secret Server API. If it is not specified you can choose the technology you want to use (database, programming language, framework, etc). However it would be wise to store the data using encryption now this is not part of the task. You can use plain text to store your secrets.

Response types The API must be able to response with XML or JSON too, based on the Accept header. Other response types (such as YAML) might be added later so prepare your code to be extandable.

Hosting: You also have to deploy and host the service. There are plenty of free solutions to do this. So this shouldn't be an issue. If this API was used in production, then HTTPS would be a must but this is not the case now. It is allowed to use HTTP too.

Database: You don't have to use a database in menory storage will work too.

Share the code: Upload the code to your GitHub account and share with us.

Questions

It is totaly OK to ask if something is not clear.
