To use this program: Make sure you have Python (version 3.7 or higher) installed on your computer. Download the repository into a new directory. Inside that directory, install a python virtual environment with the following command in Terminal:
$> Python3 -m venv venv
After you have installed the vertual environment, use the following command to activate it:
$> source venv/bin/activate
The next step is to install the necessary items listed in the requirements.txt file. For example:
(venv)$> pip install flask
(venv)$> pip install Flask-WTF
(venv)$> pip install requests
You can also install them directly from the file:
(venv)$> pip install -r requirements.txt
You are almost ready to launch this program! Throw the following command into terminal to tell flask where the main program file is:
(venv)$> export FLASK_APP=cisc3140.py
You're done! All you need to do now is run the program:
(venv)$> flask run
and open up your localhost on your browser.
Enjoy!
