admin interface
---------------

influenced heavily by the `django <http://djangoproject.com>`_ admin, provides easy
create/edit/delete functionality for your project's models.

rest api
--------

influenced by `tastypie <https://github.com/toastdriven/django-tastypie>`_, provides
a way to expose a RESTful interface for your project's models.

::

curl localhost:5000/api/user/
{
"meta": {
"model": "user",
"next": "",
"page": 1,
"previous": ""
},
"objects": [
{
"username": "admin",
"admin": true,
"email": "",
"join_date": "2011-09-16 18:34:49",
"active": true,
"id": 1
},
{
"username": "coleifer",
"admin": false,
"email": "coleifer@gmail.com",
"join_date": "2011-09-16 18:35:56",
"active": true,
"id": 2
}
]
}


installing
----------

I recommend installing in a virtualenv. to get started::

# create a new virtualenv
virtualenv --no-site-packages project
cd project/
source bin/activate

# install this project (will install dependencies as well)
pip install flask-peewee


example app
-----------

the project ships with an example app, which is a silly twitter clone. to
start the example app, ``cd`` into the "example" directory and execute
the ``run_example.py`` script::

cd example/
python run_example.py

if you would like to test out the admin area, log in as "admin/admin" and navigate to:

http://127.0.0.1:5000/admin/

you can check out the REST api at the following url:

http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/message/
