KingPin by Lema Elsherbiny

King Pin is a clone of asana.com that focuses on helping teams manage projects and task delegation across team members. Users can create new projects and assign tasks to members to a given project. It is a fullstack React App made with a Redux state manager and a backend using Python, Flask, SQL-Alchemy, and PostgresSQL.

This is the starter for the Flask React project.

Getting started

1. Clone this repository (only this branch)

   git clone https://github.com/appacademy-starters/python-project-starter.git

2. Install dependencies

   pipenv install --dev -r dev-requirements.txt && pipenv install -r requirements.txt

3. Create a .env file based on the example with proper settings for your development environment

4. Setup your PostgreSQL user, password and database and make sure it matches your .env file

5. Get into your pipenv, migrate your database, seed your database, and run your flask app

   pipenv shell

   flask db upgrade

   flask seed all

   flask run

6. To run the React App in development, checkout the README inside the react-app directory.

IMPORTANT! If you add any python dependencies to your pipfiles, you'll need to regenerate your requirements.txt before deployment. You can do this by running:

pipenv lock -r > requirements.txt

ALSO IMPORTANT! psycopg2-binary MUST remain a dev dependency because you can't install it on apline-linux. There is a layer in the Dockerfile that will install psycopg2 (not binary) for us.
