✨ Start the app in Docker

👉 Step 1 - Download the code from the GH repository (using GIT)

$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/flask-soft-ui-dashboard.git
$ cd flask-soft-ui-dashboard

👉 Step 2 - Start the APP in Docker

$ docker-compose up --build 

Visit http://localhost:5085 in your browser. The app should be up & running.

✨ Create a new .env file using sample env.sample

The meaning of each variable can be found below:

• DEBUG: if True the app runs in develoment mode
  • For production value False should be used
• ASSETS_ROOT: used in assets management
  • default value: /static/assets
• OAuth via Github
  • GITHUB_ID=<GITHUB_ID_HERE>
  • GITHUB_SECRET=<GITHUB_SECRET_HERE>

✨ Manual Build

👉 Download the code

$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/flask-soft-ui-dashboard.git
$ cd flask-soft-ui-dashboard

👉 Set Up for Unix, MacOS

Install modules via VENV

$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Set Up Flask Environment

$ export FLASK_APP=run.py
$ export FLASK_ENV=development

Start the app

$ flask run
// OR
$ flask run --cert=adhoc # For HTTPS server

At this point, the app runs at http://127.0.0.1:5000/.

👉 Set Up for Windows

Install modules via VENV (windows)

$ virtualenv env
$ .\env\Scripts\activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Set Up Flask Environment

$ # CMD 
$ set FLASK_APP=run.py
$ set FLASK_ENV=development
$
$ # Powershell
$ $env:FLASK_APP = ".\run.py"
$ $env:FLASK_ENV = "development"

Start the app

$ flask run
// OR
$ flask run --cert=adhoc # For HTTPS server

At this point, the app runs at http://127.0.0.1:5000/.

API Generator

This module helps to generate secure APIs using Flask-restX via a simple workflow:

• Edit/add your model in apps/models.py
• Migrate the database:

$ flask db init     # this should be executed only once
$ flask db migrate  # Generates the SQL 
$ flask db upgrade  # Apply changes 

• Update Configuration:
  • apps/config .py, section API_GENERATOR
• Generate the API code:
  • $ flask gen_api # the new code is saved in apps/api
• Access the API in the browser:
  • /api/MODEL_NAME/

The API is secured using the JWT tocken provided by /login/jwt/ request (username & password should be provided).

• GET requests are public (GET all, get Item)
• Mutating requests are protected by token generated based on the user credentials (username, pass).

Two POSTMAN Collections are provided in the media directory:

• Books API - that uses PORT *5000 for the api
• Books API 2 - that uses PORT *5085 for the api (default port in Docker)

In case both port are unusable in your environment, feel free to edit the files before POSTMAN import.

👉 Create Users

By default, the app redirects guest users to authenticate. In order to access the private pages, follow this set up:

• Start the app via flask run
• Access the registration page and create a new user:
  • http://127.0.0.1:5000/register
• Access the sign in page and authenticate
  • http://127.0.0.1:5000/login

✨ Code-base structure

The project is coded using blueprints, app factory pattern, dual configuration profile (development and production) and an intuitive structure presented bellow:
