This runner is an old and not working. We left it just for history.
The CheckiO task local runner is a tool for you to run your custom task on your local machine. It creates a local web server where you can see how your task will appear on checkio.org. A task must be in a specially structured folder. For the local web server it uses Flask.
Twisted.
python checkio-task-runner.py path-to-task-folder
After running open your browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:5000 to see your task.
The tasks folder is defined and explained in the next github rep -- https://github.com/CheckiO/checkio-task-template You can just fork it and create your task based on this template (Be careful with files names and structure).
