React-Flask BoilerPlate

Technologies involved include:

1. Flask
2. SQLAlchemy
3. Marshmallow
4. MySQL
5. React
6. React-Router
7. Redux

Setting Up Database

Ensure you have mysql plus command line tools setup:

mysql
mysql> CREATE DATABASE my_db_name;
mysql> \q
cd src
python manage.py db init  
python manage.py db migrate
python manage.py db upgrade

Environment Variables

I highly recommend autoenv. The required environment variables for this API are the following:

export DB_USERNAME=CHANGE_ME
export DB_PASSWORD=CHANGE_ME
export DB_HOST=localhost
export DB_NAME=my_db_name
export APP_SETTINGS=config.CHANGE_ME
