Get Started

1. Copy .env.example to .env
2. Run a local instance of Postgres (sorry I haven't done docker-compose yet)
3. Start a local environment & run pip install -r requirements.txt
4. Run the migrations with flask db upgrade
5. Start the development server with flask --debug run --port 8080
6. Check out http://localhost:8080/ to see if it's working

Populate the database

There are better ways to load data into the database, but this is the quick-n-dirty version.

Once you've run the data load once, these routes will stop working with "Data already exists for this model!"

1. Visit http://localhost:8080/data/streets
2. Visit http://localhost:8080/data/blocks
3. Visit http://localhost:8080/data/stations
