DOli flask app

this version of DOliberto uses HTML as its main format. its architecture is heavily inspired by that of Grinberg’s flask tutorial.

set-up

you need python >3.5 and virtualenv installed.

$ virtualenv venv

will create a virtual environment at the current directory.

if you haven’t done it yet, install the project’s dependencies:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

build

to activate the virtual environment, do

$ source venv/bin/activate

and you’ll be inside the virtual environment.

to quit the virtual environment, just do

$ deactivate

usage

$ flask shell

will run a python shell with the flask app already setup (everything imported, variables set, etc.)

$ flask run

will run the flask app on localhost. this requires setting the FLASK_APP variable with

$ export FLASK_APP=doli.py

setting flask on debug mode is also useful:

$ export FLASK_DEBUG=1
