Small and very opinionated framework to build flask based microservices.
You can check the official documentation here
Flask is an awesome web microframework that works great out of the box. Nevertheless, additional configuration and integration with complementary libraries are required in order to build complex applications. Here in riffstation.com we have several HTTP REST based microservices, anytime that we want to create a new microservice we need to bootstrap very similar common code.
This framework collect all the logic related with HTTP, REST and data access in one common place. Feel free to use it and extend it. We are willing to hear about your suggestions and improvements.
pip3 install Flask-Philo
In order to run test a vagrant instance is required, below steps required to execute unit tests:
cd test
vagrant up

Flask-Philo includes the flask-philo-admin command line tool.
To quickly generate a new Flask-Philo project, navigate to the directory in which you want to create
the project and run:
flask-philo-admin startproject <project_name>
This will create a folder called project_name which will contain the basic structure of a Flask-Philo application, basic unit tests and configuration.
