Flask app that lists WordPress or Tumblr posts as a dictionary.

Requirements:

• Python
• virtualenv
• Postgres (or other local database)
• foreman (or the Heroku Toolbelt)

$ virtulenv env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

$ cp .env.sample .env

Set your blog info (and, for Tumblr, API key) in the .env file.

Create a local database:

$ createdb metonymic-dev

Set the DATABASE_URL appropriately in your .env file:

DATABASE_URL=postgresql://localhost/metonymic-dev

Load the local database schema:

$ foreman run python
>>> from metonymic import database
>>> database.init_db()

Then, do the initial load of blog info and posts (this might take a few minutes if you have many posts):

$ foreman run python
>>> from metonymic import helpers
>>> helpers.load_blog_info()
>>> helpers.load_posts()

Start foreman, and visit your development server at http://localhost:5000

$ foreman start

Note: gunicorn prevents Flask from displaying a full trace. For debugging, it's easier to run Flask without gunicorn:

$ foreman run python runserver.py
