mistela-flask

A multi-event planner elaborated with Flask.

Initial steps done following this Digital Ocean guide

This version of Flask aims to provide a simpile solution to manage an event such as a wedding with different 'sub-events'. The tool also provides a custom-defined admin page as Flask does not really provide one itself (and I did not like Flask-admin as all users seemed to have admin rights).

Either way, this was a nice user-case for me to get hands-on with Flask.

Why the name Mistela?

Mistela is 'sort of a wine' quite common in my region (València, Spain) for celebrations or simply after a family dinner. It made sense that if this flask 'flavour' is about events (celebrations) management, it should have an appropiate name, therefore, mistela-flask :).

Downloading the package.

• Directly from the source:

pip install git+https://github.com/Carsopre/mistela-flask.git

• Or from pypi:

pip install mistela-flask

Installing the repository.

To develop on the repository you should be using Poetry. Once installed, simply run the install commandpoetry install and all development and production dependencies will be added to your virtual environment.

Usage

Mistela-flask can be used as a package and easily deployed as any regular flask app.

from mistelaflask import create_app
import secrets
import os
os.environ["SECRET_KEY"] = secrets.token_hex(16) # Required environment variable.
os.environ["DATABASE_URI"] = "sqlite:///db.sqlite"
os.environ["MISTELA_TITLE"] = "My big event"
os.environ["STATIC_FOLDER"] = "path//to//my//static//folder"
os.environ["MAIL_USERNAME"] = "joe.doe@email.com"
os.environ["MAIL_PASSWORD"] = "1234"

app = create_app() 
app.run()

By default, mistelaflask will run on a SQLite database.

A more 'real' example can be found in the root of the repository as wsgi.py.
