This is the example app for our 3-part post series on Medium:

• Part 1: basic app setup, configuring testing & production filedepots (see part-1 branch)
• Part 2: testing and implementing the User model & file upload endpoint (see part-2 branch)
• Part 3: customising the upload & allowing multiple depots (see part-3 branch)

In order to run the Flask app:

• make sure you have Python v3.10+ and pipenv installed
• run pipenv install to install the dependencies
• run pipenv shell to activate the projects virtualenv
• copy my_app/config/app_config.py.sample to my_app/config/app_config.py and adjust the config variables to your needs
• run FLASK_APP=my_app flask db upgrade to init the configured database
• run FLASK_APP=my_app flask run to start the local server
• run pytest to run the test suite
