> Features
- `Up-to-date dependencies`, active versioning
- `DB Tools`: SQLAlchemy ORM, `Flask-Migrate` (schema migrations)
- `Persistence`:
- `SQLite` for development - `DEBUG=True` in `.env`
- `MySql` for production - `DEBUG=False` in `.env`
- `Authentication`
- Session Based (via **flask_login**)
- Social Login (optional) for Github & Twitter
- Automatic suspension on failed logins

- `Extended user profile`
- Complete Users management (for `Admins`)
- `API` via Flask-RestX
- Path: `/api/`
- `Products`, `Sales` Models
- `Deployment`
- `Docker`
- Page Compression via `Flask-Minify` (for production)

## ✨ Start the app in Docker
> **Step 1** - Download and unzip the sources
```bash
$ # Get the code
$ unzip flask-volt-dashboard-enh.zip
$ cd flask-volt-dashboard-enh
```
> **Step 2** - Start the APP in `Docker`
```bash
$ 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 SQLite persistence is used.
- For production use `False` = this will switch to MySql persistence
- Flask `environment variables` (used in development)
- `FLASK_APP=run.py`
- `FLASK_ENV=development`
- `ASSETS_ROOT`: used in assets management
- default value: `/static/assets`
- `MYSQL` credentials (when DEBUG=`False`)
- `DB_ENGINE`, default value = `mysql`
- `DB_NAME`, default value = `appseed_db`
- `DB_HOST`, default value = `localhost`
- `DB_PORT`, default value = `3306`
- `DB_USERNAME`, default value = `appseed_db_usr`
- `DB_PASS`, default value = `pass`
- `SOCIAL AUTH` Github (optional)
- `GITHUB_ID`=YOUR_GITHUB_ID
- `GITHUB_SECRET`=YOUR_GITHUB_SECRET
- `SOCIAL AUTH` TWITTER (optional)
- `TWITTER_ID`=YOUR_GITHUB_ID
- `TWITTER_SECRET`=YOUR_GITHUB_SECRET
## ✨ Set up the MySql Database
**Note:** Make sure your Mysql server is properly installed and accessible.
> **Step 1** - Create the MySql Database to be used by the app
- `Create a new MySql` database
- `Create a new user` and assign full privilegies (read/write)
> **Step 2** - Edit the `.env` to match your MySql DB credentials. Make sure `DB_ENGINE` is set to `mysql`.
- `DB_ENGINE` : `mysql`
- `DB_NAME` : default value = `appseed_db`
- `DB_HOST` : default value = `localhost`
- `DB_PORT` : default value = `3306`
- `DB_USERNAME`: default value = `appseed_db_usr`
- `DB_PASS` : default value = `pass`
Here is a sample:
```txt
# .env sample
DEBUG=False # False enables the MySql Persistence
DB_ENGINE=mysql # Database Driver
DB_NAME=appseed_db # Database Name
DB_USERNAME=appseed_db_usr # Database User
DB_PASS=STRONG_PASS_HERE # Password
DB_HOST=localhost # Database HOST, default is localhost
DB_PORT=3306 # MySql port, default = 3306
```
## ✨ Manual Build
> - Download the [code](https://appseed.us/product/volt-dashboard-pro/flask/) and unzip the sources (requires a `purchase`).
```bash
$ # Get the code
$ unzip flask-volt-dashboard-enh.zip
$ cd flask-volt-dashboard-enh
```
### 👉 Set Up for `Unix`, `MacOS`
> Install modules via `VENV`
```bash
$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
```
> Set Up Flask Environment
```bash
$ export FLASK_APP=run.py
$ export FLASK_ENV=development
```
> Set Up Database
```bash
# Init migration folder
$ flask db init # to be executed only once
```
```bash
$ flask db migrate # Generate migration SQL
$ flask db upgrade # Apply changes
```
> Create super admin
```bash
$ flask create_admin
```
> Start the app
```bash
$ flask run
```
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
```bash
$ # CMD
$ set FLASK_APP=run.py
$ set FLASK_ENV=development
$
$ # Powershell
$ $env:FLASK_APP = ".\run.py"
$ $env:FLASK_ENV = "development"
```
> Set Up Database
```bash
# Init migration folder
$ flask db init # to be executed only once
```
```bash
$ flask db migrate # Generate migration SQL
$ flask db upgrade # Apply changes
```
> Create super admin
```bash
$ flask create_admin
```
> Start the app
```bash
$ flask run
```
At this point, the app runs at `http://127.0.0.1:5000/`.
### 👉 Create (ordinary) 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`
## ✨ Set up social auth for github
- Homepage URL :
- `http://127.0.0.1:5000/login`
- Authorization callback URL :
- `http://127.0.0.1:5000/login/github/authorized`
## ✨ 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
