This python application displays a database-driven website catalog using SQLite, Flask, and SQLAlchemy. The project is a part of the Udacity.com Full Stack Web Developer Nanodegree program. The site integrates CRUD functionality, Google Sign-in for authentication, a database Users table where the Google sign-in process inserts new users, through which the logged in users receive authorization, and API endpoints for all pages listing catalog information from the database.

This is a python program and thus, you will need a python interpreter. For more information, head on over to https://www.python.org/about/. The Catalog Web Site program has been tested in the following Python versions:

• 2.7.12
• 3.5.2

The following library(ies) must be installed to run the program.

• datetime
• flask
• httplib2
• logging
• json
• models
• oauth2client.client
• os
• random
• requests
• sqlalchemy
• sqlalchemy.orm
• string
• sys

Library(ies) for Python2 install code

pip install _library_name_

Library(ies) for Python3 install code

pip3 install _library_name_

Note: If installing the library(ies) on a virtual machine, you may need to include --user at the end of the pip/pip3 line(s) above.

1. From a console program use the following code to start the web server and run the web site. $ python views.py or $ python3 views.py (depending on the version of Python you want to use.)
2. Open a web browser and go to http://localhost:8000.
3. If you would like to log in, click the log in button and use a Google account with the sign-in.
4. When logged in, add, edit, or delete any items of your own. (You cannot modify any items except those you own.)

This application also generates a log file in the same folder as views.py called "PythonLogs_Catalog.txt."

No views have been created for this application.
