Backend for a product vendor application made with Flask framework.
Clone the repo with:
git clone https://github.com/randomBEAR/obar_backend.git
Create a new Python virtual environment (or don't) and install the required modules. Open the terminal in the project folder and run
pip install -r requirements.txt
After having installed all the modules add these two environment variables to your terminal session:
If you are on Linux:
$ export FLASK_APP=obar
$ export FLASK_ENV=development
On Windows:
$ set FLASK_APP=obar
$ set FLASK_ENV=development
In order to run properly, Obar needs a SQLite database. To create one open start Python from CLI in the same project folder and insert these commands:
>>> from obar import create_app
>>> from obar.models import db
>>> db.create_all(app=create_app())
If imports keep failing, check if your Python working directory is correct:
>>> import os
>>> os.getcwd()
A file named obar_database.db should be created in /obar. To run the application
type in your console:
flask run
The application will be running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ .
