Scenario
Order data is distributed across three different sources: an API provides order information, a CSV file contains customer details, and a SQLite database stores product information. You need to combine all three sources into a unified report.
Task
Write a Python script at /home/interview/generate_report.py that:
- Fetches order data from the API at
http://api.orders.local/orders - Reads customer data from
/home/interview/customers.csv - Queries product data from the SQLite database at
/home/interview/orders.db(table:products) - Combines all three sources and writes a unified report to
/home/interview/order_report.csv
The report should include: order_id, customer_name, email, country, order_date, status, product_name, quantity, price, total_amount
Calculate total_amount as quantity × price and round to 2 decimal places.
Note: pandas, requests, and sqlite3 are already installed.
