Join the chat at https://gitter.im/dbwebb-se/devops

Course material for a devops course, aimed at a Swedish course in computer science on University level new to devops. The students are to further develop this application and integreate it with new tools.

Released as part of a University course: https://dbwebb.se/kurser/devops

The application used in this course is based on The flask mega tutorial.

Dev environment

Here is how you setup the development environment and start the application.

Packages

Create a virtual environment and install packages:

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
make install-dev

If you are on Windows and Cygwin you will probably have troubles installing the pip package cryptography. Common errors are missing python.h, gcc, cffi and openssl.

Database

Setup SQLite database if migrations folder already exist:

flask db upgrade

If you have upgraded the code for any SQLAlchemy models:

flask db migrate -m '<message>'
flask db upgrade

You probably won't need to do this. But if you need to recreate app.db and migrations folder:

flask db init
flask db migrate -m '<message>'
flask db upgrade

If you have the wrong migrations version in the database when you want to upgrade it you can change it with:

flask db stamp head
flask db upgrade

Test application

There are several make commands for testing the application. Use make help to see which. To run all tests and validation use:

make test

Run application

Start byt setting the FLASK_APP and FLASK_ENV env vars:

export FLASK_APP=microblog.py
export FLASK_ENV=development

Change to use the DevConfig in microblog.py, uncomment # from app.config import DevConfig and # app = create_app(DevConfig) (comment app = create_app()).

Start the app with the following command and go to localhost:5000 in your browser.

flask run

Production environment

Follow the scripts in scripts/ or Driftsätta en flask app.
