Implement firefly on top of flask

[anandology]

The current way of specifying functions in command-line and in config file is very limiting. Lets create a new way to build firefly applications by building it on top of Flask. That gives it the ability to use Flask for extending it for any purpose, mix and match with other Flask applications.

You create it using:

app = Firefly() # or Firefly(__name__)

or

app = Firefly(flask_app=flask_app)

The flask app can be accessed anywhere by using app.flask_app.

app.function should intern call self.flask_app.route.

[anandology]

app.run and app.__call__ should proxy self.flask_app.run and self.flask_app.__call__ respectively.

Hi @shivank98, firefly is still a maintained project. Feel free to file a PR for this.

Sure, though I haven't gone through much of source code, will take some time in that. doing it for learning good software development.
hope time is not a constraint.
