Quick Start

1. Clone the repo

$ git clone https://github.com/Prajakta-collab/FlaskWebsite.git
$ cd flask-boilerplate

2. Initialize and activate a virtualenv:

$ virtualenv --no-site-packages env
$ source env/bin/activate

3. Install the dependencies:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

5. Run the development server:

$ python app.py

6. Navigate to http://localhost:5000

Deploying to Heroku

1. Signup for Heroku
2. Login to Heroku and download the Heroku Toolbelt
3. Once installed, open your command-line and run the following command - heroku login. Then follow the prompts:

Enter your Heroku credentials.
Email: michael@mherman.org
Password (typing will be hidden):
Could not find an existing public key.
Would you like to generate one? [Yn]
Generating new SSH public key.
Uploading ssh public key /Users/michaelherman/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

4. Activate your virtualenv
5. Heroku recognizes the dependencies needed through a requirements.txt file. Create one using the following command: pip freeze > requirements.txt. Now, this will only create the dependencies from the libraries you installed using pip. If you used easy_install, you will need to add them directly to the file.
6. Create a Procfile. Open up a text editor and save the following text in it:

web: gunicorn app:app --log-file=-

Then save the file in your applications root or main directory as Procfile (no extension). The word "web" indicates to Heroku that the application will be attached to the HTTP routing stack once deployed.

7. Create a local Git repository (if necessary):

$ git init
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "initial files"

8. Create your app on Heroku:

$ heroku create <name_it_if_you_want>

9. Deploy your code to Heroku:

$ git push heroku master

10. View the app in your browser:

$ heroku open

12. Having problems? Look at the Heroku error log:

$ heroku logs
