## Quick Start in [Docker](https://www.docker.com/)
> Get the code
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/priv-flask-dashkit-v3.git
$ cd priv-flask-dashkit-v3
```
> Start the app in Docker
```bash
$ docker-compose pull # download dependencies
$ docker-compose build # local set up
$ docker-compose up -d # start the app
```
Visit `http://localhost:85` in your browser. The app should be up & running.
## How to use it
```bash
$ # Get the code
$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/priv-flask-dashkit-v3.git
$ cd priv-flask-dashkit-v3
$
$ # Virtualenv modules installation (Unix based systems)
$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$
$ # Virtualenv modules installation (Windows based systems)
$ # virtualenv env
$ # .\env\Scripts\activate
$
$ # Install modules - SQLite Database
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
$
$ # OR with PostgreSQL connector
$ # pip install -r requirements-pgsql.txt
$
$ # Set the FLASK_APP environment variable
$ (Unix/Mac) export FLASK_APP=run.py
$ (Windows) set FLASK_APP=run.py
$ (Powershell) $env:FLASK_APP = ".\run.py"
$
$ # Set up the DEBUG environment
$ # (Unix/Mac) export FLASK_ENV=development
$ # (Windows) set FLASK_ENV=development
$ # (Powershell) $env:FLASK_ENV = "development"
$
$ # Start the application (development mode)
$ # --host=0.0.0.0 - expose the app on all network interfaces (default 127.0.0.1)
$ # --port=5000 - specify the app port (default 5000)
$ flask run --host=0.0.0.0 --port=5000
$
$ # Access the dashboard in browser: http://127.0.0.1:5000/
```
> Note: To use the app, please access the registration page and create a new user. After authentication, the app will unlock the private pages.
## Code-base structure
The project is coded using blueprints, app factory pattern, dual configuration profile (development and production) and an intuitive structure presented bellow:
```bash
< PROJECT ROOT >
|
|-- apps/
| |
| |-- home/ # A simple app that serve HTML files
| | |-- routes.py # Define app routes
| |
| |-- authentication/ # Handles auth routes (login and register)
| | |-- routes.py # Define authentication routes
| | |-- models.py # Defines models
| | |-- forms.py # Define auth forms (login and register)
| |
| |-- static/
| | |-- # CSS files, Javascripts files
| |
| |-- templates/ # Templates used to render pages
| | |-- includes/ # HTML chunks and components
| | | |-- navigation.html # Top menu component
| | | |-- sidebar.html # Sidebar component
| | | |-- footer.html # App Footer
| | | |-- scripts.html # Scripts common to all pages
| | |
| | |-- layouts/ # Master pages

| | |-- index.html # Index page
| | |-- 404-page.html # 404 page
| | |-- *.html # All other pages
| |
| config.py # Set up the app
| __init__.py # Initialize the app
|
|-- requirements.txt # Development modules - SQLite storage
|-- requirements-mysql.txt # Production modules - Mysql DMBS
|-- requirements-pqsql.txt # Production modules - PostgreSql DMBS
|
|-- Dockerfile # Deployment
|-- docker-compose.yml # Deployment
|-- gunicorn-cfg.py # Deployment
|-- nginx # Deployment
| |-- appseed-app.conf # Deployment
|
|-- .env # Inject Configuration via Environment
|-- run.py # Start the app - WSGI gateway
|
|-- ************************************************************************
```
> The bootstrap flow
- `run.py` loads the `.env` file
- Initialize the app using the specified profile: *Debug* or *Production*
- If env.DEBUG is set to *True* the SQLite storage is used
- If env.DEBUG is set to *False* the specified DB driver is used (MySql, PostgreSQL)
- Call the app factory method `create_app` defined in app/__init__.py
- Redirect the guest users to Login page
- Unlock the pages served by *home* blueprint for authenticated users
## Deployment
The app is provided with a basic configuration to be executed in [Docker](https://www.docker.com/), [Heroku](https://www.heroku.com/), [Gunicorn](https://gunicorn.org/), and [Waitress](https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/waitress/en/stable/).
### [Heroku](https://www.heroku.com/)
---
Steps to deploy on **Heroku**
- [Create a FREE account](https://signup.heroku.com/) on Heroku platform
- [Install the Heroku CLI](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-python#set-up) that match your OS: Mac, Unix or Windows
- Open a terminal window and authenticate via `heroku login` command
- Clone the sources and push the project for LIVE deployment
```bash
$ # Clone the source code:
$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/priv-flask-dashkit-v3.git
$ cd priv-flask-dashkit-v3
$
$ # Check Heroku CLI is installed
$ heroku -v
heroku/7.25.0 win32-x64 node-v12.13.0 # <-- All good
$
$ # Check Heroku CLI is installed
$ heroku login
$ # this commaond will open a browser window - click the login button (in browser)
$
$ # Create the Heroku project
$ heroku create
$
$ # Trigger the LIVE deploy
$ git push heroku master
$
$ # Open the LIVE app in browser
$ heroku open
```
### [Gunicorn](https://gunicorn.org/)
---
Gunicorn 'Green Unicorn' is a Python WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX.
> Install using pip
```bash
$ pip install gunicorn
```
> Start the app using gunicorn binary
```bash
$ gunicorn --bind 0.0.0.0:8001 run:app
Serving on http://localhost:8001
```
Visit `http://localhost:8001` in your browser. The app should be up & running.
### [Waitress](https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/waitress/en/stable/)
---
Waitress (Gunicorn equivalent for Windows) is meant to be a production-quality pure-Python WSGI server with very acceptable performance. It has no dependencies except ones that live in the Python standard library.
> Install using pip
```bash
$ pip install waitress
```
> Start the app using [waitress-serve](https://docs.pylonsproject.org/projects/waitress/en/stable/runner.html)
```bash
$ waitress-serve --port=8001 run:app
Serving on http://localhost:8001
```
Visit `http://localhost:8001` in your browser. The app should be up & running.
