devquotes-flask

Backend source code for devquotes.netlify.com. The quotes you browse are delivered from here, along with other very useful endpoints.

Built With

  • Flask
  • PostgreSQL
  • Firebase for authentication
  • Pipenv for managing dependencies
  • Heroku as hosting provider

Local Environment

Clone this repo and install the dependencies by running:

$ git clone https://github.com/bertdida/devquotes-flask.git
$ cd devquotes-flask
$ pipenv install

PostgreSQL is the database of choice for this project. You can download the community client, pgAdmin, on this page.

Create a local database and rename .env.example to remove .example and set its SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI to your database URL.

This project uses firebase for authentication. Therefore a firebase service account key is required. Follow this guide to generate a private key file in JSON format.

Inside your .env file, set the FIREBASE_CREDENTIAL to the path of your firebase service account key.

Activate the Pipenv shell and run the database migration.

$ pipenv shell
$ flask db upgrade

Start the app.

$ python run.py

When you have your admin user logged in on the app, you can seed the database by running.

$ flask seed
