A Flask boiler-plate app for web-dev including within it's stack Jinja2 Templates, PostgreSQL, Python 3.5 and Vue.js or React.js.

Creating a template app that can be deployed at the onset of projects.

Upgrade the server

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade-dist

Begin the installation of the required packages

sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt-get install python3-dev
sudo apt-get install python3-pip

There is a need to get a virtualenv set up. I would follow this config tutorial. With the exception of one line.

sudo apt install virtualenv
virtualenv env
cd env
source bin/activate

Now within your environment use pip to install the other components

pip3 install virtualenv
pip3 install virtualenvwrapper
pip3 install pandas
pip3 install ipython
pip3 install jupyter
pip3 install flask

This should take care of a majority of the packages that you will need to develop the rest of this app's boilerplate.

This should server as a great walk-through of setting up user permissions. And if you're hyped on caffiene and need a video, Patrick Bailey is worth following on YouTube. Great videos.

The file strucute for Flask is simiar to Django, but can be less structured.

mkdir ~/projects
mkdir ~/projects/flask-projects
cd projects/flask-projects
git clone <this repo>

If you don’t already have Sublime Text’s wonderful package manager, install it.

Hit Cmd+Shift+P, start typing “install” and select “Install Package” Start typing “rsub” and select it.

Once it’s installed, get on your terminal and do

nano ~/.ssh/config

Paste the following lines:

Host star-destroyer
    RemoteForward 52698 127.0.0.1:52698

Save (ctrl+w) and SSH into your server ssh username@star-destroyer. Install the rsub remote script:

sudo wget -O /usr/local/bin/rsub https://raw.github.com/aurora/rmate/master/rmate

Make that script executable:

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rsub

Lastly, run rsub on the remote file you want to edit locally:

rsub ~/my_project/my_file.html

and it should magically open in Sublime Text!
