  1. Challenge

    Create DB Connection (connect_db.py)

    First, you will need to connect to the database. To do this, create a function named get_database_connection in the connect_db.py file. This function will return a client object that can be used to access the database.

  2. Challenge

    Populate Collection (populate_data.py)

    With the connection created, populate a new collection in the read_data_from_db function using the contract_list provided in the file.

  3. Challenge

    Read Data (read_data.py)

    Now you can read the documents from the collection using the read_data_from_db function. The skeleton also has code to compare the read data to a known good copy and print it to the screen.

  4. Challenge

    Update and Delete (update_data.py)

    With the data successfully loaded, you are now ready to make some updates:

    1. First, delete the document with the incorrect page number in the delete_data_from_db function.
    2. Then, resolve the failed assertation due date not updated correctly by updating the due date in the update_data function.
