Main Files: Project Structure

├── README.md
├── app.py *** the main driver of the app. Includes SQLAlchemy models.
                  "python app.py" to run after installing dependences
├── config.py *** Database URLs, CSRF generation, etc

Overall:

  • Models are located in the MODELS section of app.py.
  • Controllers are also located in app.py.
  • The web frontend is located in templates/, which builds static assets deployed to the web server at static/.
  • Web forms for creating data are located in form.py

Highlight folders:

  • templates/pages -- Defines the pages that are rendered to the site. These templates render views based on data passed into the template’s view, in the controllers defined in app.py.
  • templates/layouts -- Defines the layout that a page can be contained in to define footer and header code for a given page.
  • templates/forms -- Defines the forms used to create new artists, shows, and venues.
  • app.py -- Defines routes that match the user’s URL, and controllers which handle data and renders views to the user. This is the main file you will be working on to connect to and manipulate the database and render views with data to the user, based on the URL.
  • Models in app.py -- Defines the data models that set up the database tables.
  • config.py -- Stores configuration variables and instructions, separate from the main application code.

$ cd YOUR_PROJECT_DIRECTORY_PATH/
$ virtualenv --no-site-packages env
$ source env/bin/activate
  1. Install the dependencies:
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
  1. Run the development server:
$ export FLASK_APP=myapp
$ export FLASK_ENV=development # enables debug mode
$ python3 app.py
