Flask App Generator gives you the power to autogenerate a Flask app in seconds.

The application you generate will be laid out in one of the following formats:

• a 'basic' app, with just a single python file as the command center
• a 'large' app, organized as a package and separated out into distinct, specialized python files
• a 'flask-angular' app, with a Flask API and an AngularJS front-end

Beyond app creation, you'll have the ability to automatically:

• generate a virtual environment and install packages inside it
• hook into a github repo
• initialize a Heroku application and deploy to it

(it's like hackathon magic)

Enjoy, and please don't hesitate to contribute to the project or provide feedback.

• Make sure you have the necessary packages installed
• Edit settings.py
• Run: "python generate.py [appname]"

• python
• pip
• git

• heroku toolbelt
• virtualenv
• virtualenvwrapper

usage: generate.py [-h] [--githubrepo GITHUB_REPO] [--herokuapp HEROKU_APP] [--venvname VIRTUALENV_NAME] [--push] [--large] [--angular] appname
