Volt Dashboard - Full-Stack Starter generated by AppSeed.

βœ… Environment

To use the starter, Python3 should be installed properly in the workstation. If you are not sure if Python is installed, please open a terminal and type python --version. Here is the full list with dependencies and tools required to build the app:

  • Python3 - the programming language used to code the app
  • GIT - used to clone the source code from the Github repository
  • Basic development tools (g++ compiler, python development libraries ..etc) used by Python to compile the app dependencies in your environment.
  • (Optional) Docker - a popular virtualization software

βœ… Start in Docker

πŸ‘‰ Step 1 - Download the code from the GH repository (using GIT)

$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/flask-volt-dashboard.git
$ cd flask-volt-dashboard

πŸ‘‰ Step 2 - Start the APP in Docker

$ docker-compose up --build 

Visit http://localhost:5085 in your browser. The app should be up & running.

βœ… Create .env file

The meaning of each variable can be found below:

  • DEBUG: if True the app runs in develoment mode
    • For production value False should be used
  • ASSETS_ROOT: used in assets management
    • default value: /static/assets
  • OAuth via Github
    • GITHUB_ID=<GITHUB_ID_HERE>
    • GITHUB_SECRET=<GITHUB_SECRET_HERE>

βœ… Manual Build

Download the code

$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/flask-volt-dashboard.git
$ cd flask-volt-dashboard

πŸ‘‰ Set Up for Unix, MacOS

Install modules via VENV

$ virtualenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Set Up Flask Environment

$ export FLASK_APP=run.py
$ export FLASK_ENV=development

Start the app

$ flask run
// OR
$ flask run --cert=adhoc # For HTTPS server

At this point, the app runs at http://127.0.0.1:5000/.


πŸ‘‰ Set Up for Windows

Install modules via VENV (windows)

$ virtualenv env
$ .\env\Scripts\activate
$ pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Set Up Flask Environment

$ # CMD 
$ set FLASK_APP=run.py
$ set FLASK_ENV=development
$
$ # Powershell
$ $env:FLASK_APP = ".\run.py"
$ $env:FLASK_ENV = "development"

Start the app

$ flask run
// OR
$ flask run --cert=adhoc # For HTTPS server

At this point, the app runs at http://127.0.0.1:5000/.


πŸ‘‰ Create 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
