F22 CIS*3760 Sprint 5: Flask

In sprint 5 your goal is to continue to install and configure your technology stack on your VM.

• Install and configure Flask.
  • In later sprints you will create an API to serve up your course data and anything else needed for your GUI.
• Start by creating paths and functionality to return course/scheduling data (in Flask, with Python).
  • Demonstrate this functionality with buttons or anchor tags on the homepage - when clicked they show the data returned by Flask.
• NGINX is between the Internet and Flask.
  • Use a WSGI of your choice. uWSGI, Gunicorn, etc.

Should not haves: No user authentication or log in. I’m not creating an account or logging on to interact with your application. If you try to make me you will lose SO many marks >>:(

Deliverables on GitLab:

• An install script that installs all of the above. For consistency let’s try for apt.
• Your config files for the above, with clear README on where to put them and how to start and re-start the servers
• Generally good clear documentation on how to get everything up and running for your setup.
• A nice Wiki page showing your application’s URL.
• If you have time, start looking at JavaScript calendar libraries.
