Installing

I run this as a reverse proxy via Apache. Example systemd unit files and friends are in daemon-files of this repo

• create a venv, say in ~/.local/var/lib/FlaskBump, and source it
• $ pip install FlaskBump gunicorn
• place the systemd unit file and shell script into the correct folders, for example I use ~/.local/var/lib/systemd/{etc/user,usr/bin}
• place the .htaccess file in the public http folder corresponding to the domain you want to serve the app from
• adjust the unix socket path in the .htaccess file and .service unit
• copy the default state.json file from daemon-files into the app's working directory (as specified as WorkingDirectory in the .service file)

Make sure you have the headers, proxy, and proxy_http modules enabled for Apache!

You can probably figure out the rest, enabling / starting the systemd service...
