Simple project to get started with your Flask App.
At the moment the sample project can register a user, log in a user and logout.
Styling done using Bootstrap 5.3.1.
It's set up to use SQLite3 but can easily be changed to use your preferred database.
Create Flask App uses blueprints which means your project is ready to go big, it's easy to scale. It's great for both small and large applications.
Create your virtual environment and activate it. Then:
pip install -r requirements.txt
flask db init
flask db migrate -m "message"
flask db upgrade
python app.py
This will start the app in debug mode and is ready for you to use. First you should go
to localhost:5000/register to register a new user. After that you will be able to log in
going to localhost:5000/login. The home page is protected by the @login_required decorator
of the Flask-Login package so that only logged-in users can see it.
You only need to clone this repo, install the requests.txt file and run the database commands, and you're done. I recommend using the latest versions (I will do my best to keep it updated as quickly as I can).
The starter project has:
- Register Page
- Login Page
- Home Page
- Users Admin Page
- API
- BONUS Logout (not actually a page)
After every update to the models.py file you need to run in your terminal virtual environment:
flask db migrate -m "migrate message"
flask db upgrade
this will look for changes in the database models and apply them to your database.
