Installation

HASHirama uses Flask at the backend and utilizes Bootstrap 4.5 for styles.

Using HASHirama in a virtual environment:

Create and activate a virtual environment (myvirtualenv in the example below) and install the dependencies provided in requirements.txt by executing the following command:

(myvirutalenv) $ pip install -r requirements.txt

(Linux) For production environment without debug mode:

$ export FLASK_ENV=production
$ export FLASK_DEBUG=0

(Linux) For development environment with debug mode:

$ export FLASK_ENV=development
$ export FLASK_DEBUG=1

(Windows) For production environment without debug mode:

$ set FLASK_ENV=production
$ set FLASK_DEBUG=0

(Windows) For development environment with debug mode:

$ set FLASK_ENV=development
$ set FLASK_DEBUG=1

Running the app

Once the installation steps are done, CD to the directory where app.py is located and execute the following command:

(myvirtualenv) $ python3 app.py

Default maximum file upload size is 100 MB, however you can change it in __init__.py

NOTE: Use a proper WSGI instead of using the Flask production environment for better security and to avoid unusual behavior such as connection reset upon error handling. Here are a few deployment options as suggested by Flask itself.
