Getting started

Clone the repo to your computer in the desired folder:

$ git clone https://github.com/albertogg/flask-bootstrap-skel.git

Use the requirements.txt to start dependencies in your virtualenv:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Start the server:

$ fab run
or
$ fab grun # for gunicorn server

Open the browser; http://localhost:5000 or with the terminal(OS X):

$ open http://localhost:5000

Initialize db

Set the db parameters in the default_settings.py or in the production.cfg file and start python interactive shell within the flask environment:

$ fab shell
>>> db.create_all()
>>> exit()

note: You must first create the database in Postgresql. From running this command on heroku, you will need to use heroku run "fab shell"

Unit testing

Add unittests to the manage_tests.py file and then start running the tests:

$ fab tests

Production Configuration

To activate the production configuration; export the variable:

$ export PRODUCTION_SETTINGS=/path/to/production.py

For Heroku using gunicorn and production settings, do the following:.

Heroku Postgresql Database as primary, Check heroku.
