• To convert the activity into reusable script lets learn bash basics and its usage with azure Refer Here and Refer Here for the generic bash cheatsheet
• Exercise: Try completing the script

#!/bin/bash

# create_resource_group(name, location)
# This function creates a resource group if it doesnot exist
function create_resource_group()
{
    name=$1
    location=$2
    if [ $(az group exists --name $name) = true ]; then 
        echo "resource group $name already exists"
    else
        az group create --name $name --location $location
    fi
}

function create_sql_server()
{
    name=$1
    rg_name=$2
    location=$3
    username=$4
    password=$5

}

function create_sql_database()
{

}

RG_NAME='activity1'
RG_LOCATION='eastus'
create_resource_group "$RG_NAME" "$RG_LOCATION"
