practice project to learn Flask.

TODO:

• current:

  • dependency on setting up config.py
  • http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/config/
  • what to do with internal logging?
    • "STUB: logging" e.g. models.py

• network-tools/whois

  • BUG: form submit clash, how to decouple the two submits?
  • tidy up wtf.quickform to put title/form/button on same row.
  • split out logic for jwhois requests out of view.py, models.oy more appropriate?
  • create separate form for domain name whois requests
  • look into custom validators to verify domain name (could be nasty if someone escaped out)
  • jwhois binary location in global config file?

• network-tools/{whois,mtr,dns,telnet,nmap}

  • future features

• login/sessions, only access for authenticated users.

• email alerting of errors?

• DNS management via /dns (backed on database)

• /ping-probe

  • setup pings against arbitrary destinatiosn
  • js to graph latency variations?

• mail management via /mail

  • blacklists/whitelists of domains
  • account management
  • very simple webmail UI?

• url shortener, bitly clone?

• pastebin clone?

• alert/monitor dashboard

  • generic framework for alerting from vps
