Getting started:

• From project dir: docker build --tag keyvalue .
• docker network create flask_network
• docker run --network flask_network --name keyvalue -d -p 5000:5000 keyvalue
• The app should now be running on localhost:5000. If that doesn't open on your browser, you can check the running docker container for the right address.

Testing:

• This simple app exposes 3 endpoints:
  • /store-value, which takes either a POST or PATCH request with payload in the format

  {
    "meta": {
        "key": "blah",
        "value": 4
    }
  }
  

  and stores it in the database.
• /get-value/<k>, which takes a GET request to get a key in the data store with key k
• /delete-key/<k>, which takes a DELETE request to delete a key in the data store with key k
