A simple Flask application to play back videos at a much lower resolution that simulates a LED screen. Applicable for LED screen art projects.
A Dockerfile
is provided. Simply run docker build .
to build an image. The web port is exposed by 80
by default in the running container.
A python 3.4 http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/ is highly recommended. Install and set up a virtualenv and make sure you are 'inside' the virtualenv.
TL;DR:
virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3.4 venv
source venv/bin/activate
The list of python packages we use is in requirements.txt
. In the
virtualenv, run:
pip install -r requirements.txt
That will install all of the requisite packages in the virtualenv. Create the sqlite database by:
python -c "from models import db; db.create_all()"
To run the application, simply invoking ./app.py
is all that is
needed.
You may want to set up an user beforehand as there is no provision for creating an user. Adding a new user is also simple:
python -c "from models import User; User('email@somewhere.org', 'password').save()"
