DevOps Apprenticeship: Project Exercise

Getting started

The project uses a virtual environment to isolate package dependencies. To create the virtual environment and install required packages, run the following from a bash shell terminal:

On macOS and Linux

$ source setup.sh

On Windows (Using Git Bash)

$ source setup.sh --windows

Once the setup script has completed and all packages have been installed, start the Flask app by running:

$ flask run

You should see output similar to the following:

 * Serving Flask app "app" (lazy loading)
 * Environment: development
 * Debug mode: on
 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
 * Restarting with fsevents reloader
 * Debugger is active!
 * Debugger PIN: 226-556-590

Now visit http://localhost:5000/ in your web browser to view the app.
