Hi @aliabbasjaffri , I'd like to tackle this issue for hacktoberfest. Could you assign it to me?
Thanks

[aliabbasjaffri]

Sure @RINO-GAELICO! Good luck!

[RINO-GAELICO]

@aliabbasjaffri would src/mlinfra/terraform/terraform.py be a good place to add the new function check_for_duplicates?
This is would be the beginning of it.

def check_for_duplicates(self, config: dict):
        """
        This function checks if there are duplicate stacks or applications in the config.
        :param config: The loaded configuration dictionary
        """
        seen = set()
        duplicates = []

        stacks = config.get("stack", [])
        applications = config.get("applications", [])
        
        # TO BE CONTINUED

I'd rather have this check be in one of the files in src/mlinfra/stack_processor/stack_processor/, depending which stack is getting deployed

I want to help, how can i assist?

[aliabbasjaffri]

hey @RINO-GAELICO are you still working on this task?

[RINO-GAELICO]

@aliabbasjaffri yes I am.

Do you mean to have a check_for_duplicates in each of the files *_stack inside src/mlinfra/stack_processor/stack_processor/?

Is my understanding correct?

[RINO-GAELICO]

@aliabbasjaffri please let me know

[aliabbasjaffri]

Sorry for missing this message, yes you're correct with that understanding.
