Flaskr - Intro to Flask, Test-Driven Development, and JavaScript

Share on Twitter

As many of you know, Flaskr -- a mini-blog-like-app -- is the app that you build for the official Flask tutorial. I've gone through the tutorial more times than I care to admit. Anyway, I wanted to take the tutorial a step further by adding Test-Driven Development (TDD), a bit of JavaScript, and deployment. This post is that tutorial. Enjoy.

Also, if you're completely new to Flask and/or web development in general, it's important to grasp these basic fundamental concepts:

  1. The difference between GET and POST requests and how functions within the app handle each.
  2. What "requests" and "responses" are.
  3. How HTML pages are rendered and/or returned to the end user.

This project is powered by TestDriven.io. Please support this open source project by purchasing one of our Flask courses. Learn how to build, test, and deploy microservices powered by Docker, Flask, and React!

What you're building

You'll be building a simple blogging app in this tutorial:

Test Driven Development?

tdd

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is an iterative development cycle that emphasizes writing automated tests before writing the actual feature or function. Put another way, TDD combines building and testing. This process not only helps ensure correctness of the code -- but also helps to indirectly evolve the design and architecture of the project at hand.

TDD usually follows the "Red-Green-Refactor" cycle, as shown in the image above:

  1. Write a test
  2. Run the test (it should fail)
  3. Write just enough code for the test to pass
  4. Refactor code and retest, again and again (if necessary)

Download Python

Before beginning make sure you have the latest version of Python 3.9 installed, which you can download from http://www.python.org/download/.

This tutorial uses Python v3.9.0.

Along with Python, the following tools are also installed:

  • pip - a package management system for Python, similar to gem or npm for Ruby and Node, respectively.
  • venv - used to create isolated environments for development. This is standard practice. Always, always, ALWAYS utilize virtual environments. If you don't, you will eventually run into problems with dependency conflicts.

Feel free to swap out virtualenv and Pip for Poetry or Pipenv.

Project Setup

Create a new directory to store the project:

$ mkdir flaskr-tdd
$ cd flaskr-tdd

Create and activate a virtual environment:

$ python3.9 -m venv env
$ source env/bin/activate
(env)$

You know that you're in a virtual environment, env is now showing before the $ in your terminal: (env)$. To exit the virtual environment, use the command deactivate. You can reactivate by navigating back to the project directory and running source env/bin/activate.

Install Flask with pip:

(env)$ pip install flask==1.1.2

First Test

Let's start with a simple "hello, world" app.

Create the following files and folders:

├── project
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── app.py
└── tests
    ├── __init__.py
    └── app_test.py

While the Python standard library comes with a unit testing framework called ùnittest, pytest is the go-to testing framework for testing Python code.

Install it:

(env)$ pip install pytest==6.1.1

Open tests/app_test.py in your favorite text editor -- like Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, or PyCharm -- and then add the following code:

from project.app import app

def test_index():
    tester = app.test_client()
    response = tester.get("/", content_type="html/text")

    assert response.status_code == 200
    assert response.data == b"Hello, World!"

Essentially, we're testing whether the response that we get back has a status code of "200" and that "Hello, World!" is displayed.

Run the test:

(env)$ python -m pytest

If all goes well, this test will fail:

ImportError: cannot import name 'app' from 'project.app

Now add the code for this to pass to project/app.py:

from flask import Flask


# create and initialize a new Flask app
app = Flask(__name__)


@app.route("/")
def hello():
    return "Hello, World!"


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run()

Run the app:

(env)$ FLASK_APP=project/app.py python -m flask run

The FLASK_APP environment variable is used to tell Flask to look for the application in a different module.

Then, navigate to http://localhost:5000/ in your browser of choice. You should see "Hello, World!" on your screen.

Return to the terminal. Kill the server with Ctrl+C.

Run the test again:

(env)$ python -m pytest

Nice.

Database Setup

Essentially, we want to open a database connection, create the database based on a defined schema if it doesn't already exist, and then close the connection each time a test is ran.

Create a new file called schema.sql in "project" and add the following code:

drop table if exists entries;
create table entries (
  id integer primary key autoincrement,
  title text not null,
  text text not null
);

This will set up a single table with three fields -- "id", "title", and "text". SQLite will be used for our RDMS since it's part of the standard Python library and requires no configuration.

Update app.py:

from flask import Flask


# configuration
DATABASE = "flaskr.db"

# create and initialize a new Flask app
app = Flask(__name__)

# load the config
app.config.from_object(__name__)


@app.route("/")
def hello():
    return "Hello, World!"


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run()

Here, we created a configuration section for config variables (with the name of the future SQLite database) and loaded the config after app initialization.

How do we test for the existence of a file? Update app_test.py like so:

from pathlib import Path

from project.app import app


def test_index():
    tester = app.test_client()
    response = tester.get("/", content_type="html/text")

    assert response.status_code == 200
    assert response.data == b"Hello, World!"


def test_database():
    assert Path("flaskr.db").is_file()

Run it to make sure it fails, indicating that the database does not exist.

Now add the following code to app.py, just before the hello view function:

# connect to database
def connect_db():
    """Connects to the database."""
    rv = sqlite3.connect(app.config["DATABASE"])
    rv.row_factory = sqlite3.Row
    return rv


# create the database
def init_db():
    with app.app_context():
        db = get_db()
        with app.open_resource("schema.sql", mode="r") as f:
            db.cursor().executescript(f.read())
        db.commit()


# open database connection
def get_db():
    if not hasattr(g, "sqlite_db"):
        g.sqlite_db = connect_db()
    return g.sqlite_db


# close database connection
@app.teardown_appcontext
def close_db(error):
    if hasattr(g, "sqlite_db"):
        g.sqlite_db.close()

Add the imports:

import sqlite3
from flask import Flask, g

Curious about g object? Check out the Understanding the Application and Request Contexts in Flask for more.

You should now have:

import sqlite3
from flask import Flask, g


# configuration
DATABASE = "flaskr.db"

# create and initialize a new Flask app
app = Flask(__name__)

# load the config
app.config.from_object(__name__)


# connect to database
def connect_db():
    """Connects to the database."""
    rv = sqlite3.connect(app.config["DATABASE"])
    rv.row_factory = sqlite3.Row
    return rv


# create the database
def init_db():
    with app.app_context():
        db = get_db()
        with app.open_resource("schema.sql", mode="r") as f:
            db.cursor().executescript(f.read())
        db.commit()


# open database connection
def get_db():
    if not hasattr(g, "sqlite_db"):
        g.sqlite_db = connect_db()
    return g.sqlite_db


# close database connection
@app.teardown_appcontext
def close_db(error):
    if hasattr(g, "sqlite_db"):
        g.sqlite_db.close()


@app.route("/")
def hello():
    return "Hello, World!"


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run()

Now, create a database by starting up a Python shell and importing and then calling the init_db function:

>>> from project.app import init_db
>>> init_db()

Close the shell, then run the test again. Does it pass? It should. Now we know that the database has been created.

You can also call init_db within the test, to ensure that the test can be ran independently:

from pathlib import Path

from project.app import app, init_db


def test_index():
    tester = app.test_client()
    response = tester.get("/", content_type="html/text")

    assert response.status_code == 200
    assert response.data == b"Hello, World!"


def test_database():
    init_db()
    assert Path("flaskr.db").is_file()

Updated structure:

├── flaskr.db
├── project
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── app.py
│   └── schema.sql
└── tests
    ├── __init__.py
    └── app_test.py

Templates and Views

Next, we need to set up the templates and the associated views, which define the routes. Think about this from a user's standpoint:

  1. Users should be able to log in and out.
  2. Once logged in, users should be able to post new messages.
  3. Finally, users should be able to view the messages.

Write some tests for this first.

Tests

Take a look at the final code below. I added docstrings for explanation.

import pytest
import os
from pathlib import Path

from project.app import app, init_db

TEST_DB = "test.db"


@pytest.fixture
def client():
    BASE_DIR = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent
    app.config["TESTING"] = True
    app.config["DATABASE"] = BASE_DIR.joinpath(TEST_DB)

    init_db() # setup
    yield app.test_client() # tests run here
    init_db() # teardown


def login(client, username, password):
    """Login helper function"""
    return client.post(
        "/login",
        data=dict(username=username, password=password),
        follow_redirects=True,
    )


def logout(client):
    """Logout helper function"""
    return client.get("/logout", follow_redirects=True)


def test_index(client):
    response = client.get("/", content_type="html/text")
    assert response.status_code == 200


def test_database(client):
    """initial test. ensure that the database exists"""
    tester = Path("test.db").is_file()
    assert tester


def test_empty_db(client):
    """Ensure database is blank"""
    rv = client.get("/")
    assert b"No entries yet. Add some!" in rv.data


def test_login_logout(client):
    """Test login and logout using helper functions"""
    rv = login(client, app.config["USERNAME"], app.config["PASSWORD"])
    assert b"You were logged in" in rv.data
    rv = logout(client)
    assert b"You were logged out" in rv.data
    rv = login(client, app.config["USERNAME"] + "x", app.config["PASSWORD"])
    assert b"Invalid username" in rv.data
    rv = login(client, app.config["USERNAME"], app.config["PASSWORD"] + "x")
    assert b"Invalid password" in rv.data


def test_messages(client):
    """Ensure that user can post messages"""
    login(client, app.config["USERNAME"], app.config["PASSWORD"])
    rv = client.post(
        "/add",
        data=dict(title="<Hello>", text="<strong>HTML</strong> allowed here"),
        follow_redirects=True,
    )
    assert b"No entries here so far" not in rv.data
    assert b"&lt;Hello&gt;" in rv.data
    assert b"<strong>HTML</strong> allowed here" in rv.data

Take note of the client function. This is a pytest fixture, which sets up a known state for each test function before the test runs.

Run the tests now:

(env)$ python -m pytest

Three tests should fail:

Let's get these all green, one at a time...

Show Entries

First, replace the hello view with the following view function for displaying the entries to app.py:

@app.route('/')
def index():
    """Searches the database for entries, then displays them."""
    db = get_db()
    cur = db.execute('select * from entries order by id desc')
    entries = cur.fetchall()
    return render_template('index.html', entries=entries)

Import in render_template:

from flask import Flask, g, render_template

Then, create a new folder called "templates" inside of "project", and add an index.html template file to it:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Flaskr</title>
    <link
      rel="stylesheet"
      type="text/css"
      href="{{ url_for('static', filename='style.css') }}"
    />
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="page">
      <h1>Flaskr-TDD</h1>

      <div class="metanav">
        {% if not session.logged_in %}
        <a href="{{ url_for('login') }}">log in</a>
        {% else %}
        <a href="{{ url_for('logout') }}">log out</a>
        {% endif %}
      </div>

      {% for message in get_flashed_messages() %}
      <div class="flash">{{ message }}</div>
      {% endfor %} {% block body %}{% endblock %} {% if session.logged_in %}
      <form
        action="{{ url_for('add_entry') }}"
        method="post"
        class="add-entry"
      >
        <dl>
          <dt>Title:</dt>
          <dd><input type="text" size="30" name="title" /></dd>
          <dt>Text:</dt>
          <dd><textarea name="text" rows="5" cols="40"></textarea></dd>
          <dd><input type="submit" value="Share" /></dd>
        </dl>
      </form>
      {% endif %}

      <ul class="entries">
        {% for entry in entries %}
        <li>
          <h2>{{ entry.title }}</h2>
          {{ entry.text|safe }}
        </li>
        {% else %}
        <li><em>No entries yet. Add some!</em></li>
        {% endfor %}
      </ul>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

User Login and Logout

Update app.py:

@app.route('/login', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def login():
    """User login/authentication/session management."""
    error = None
    if request.method == 'POST':
        if request.form['username'] != app.config['USERNAME']:
            error = 'Invalid username'
        elif request.form['password'] != app.config['PASSWORD']:
            error = 'Invalid password'
        else:
            session['logged_in'] = True
            flash('You were logged in')
            return redirect(url_for('index'))
    return render_template('login.html', error=error)


@app.route('/logout')
def logout():
    """User logout/authentication/session management."""
    session.pop('logged_in', None)
    flash('You were logged out')
    return redirect(url_for('index'))

In the above login function, the decorator indicates that the route can accept either a GET or POST request. Put simply, a request is initiated by the end user when they access the /login URL. The difference between these requests is simple: GET is used for accessing a webpage, while POST is used when information is sent to the server. Thus, when a user accesses the /login URL, they are using a GET request, but when they attempt to log in, a POST request is used.

Update the config as well:

# configuration
DATABASE = "flaskr.db"
USERNAME = "admin"
PASSWORD = "admin"
SECRET_KEY = "change_me"

Add the appropriate imports:

from flask import Flask, g, render_template, request, session, flash, redirect, url_for

Add the login.html template:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Flaskr-TDD | Login</title>
    <link
      rel="stylesheet"
      type="text/css"
      href="{{ url_for('static', filename='style.css') }}"
    />
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="page">
      <h1>Flaskr</h1>

      <div class="metanav">
        {% if not session.logged_in %}
        <a href="{{ url_for('login') }}">log in</a>
        {% else %}
        <a href="{{ url_for('logout') }}">log out</a>
        {% endif %}
      </div>

      {% for message in get_flashed_messages() %}
      <div class="flash">{{ message }}</div>
      {% endfor %} {% block body %}{% endblock %}

      <h2>Login</h2>

      {% if error %}
      <p class="error"><strong>Error:</strong> {{ error }}</p>
      {% endif %}

      <form action="{{ url_for('login') }}" method="post">
        <dl>
          <dt>Username:</dt>
          <dd><input type="text" name="username" /></dd>
          <dt>Password:</dt>
          <dd><input type="password" name="password" /></dd>
          <dd><input type="submit" value="Login" /></dd>
        </dl>
      </form>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

Run the tests again. You should see two errors:

E           werkzeug.routing.BuildError: Could not build url for endpoint 'add_entry'. Did you mean 'login' instead?

Next, add in a view for adding entries:

@app.route('/add', methods=['POST'])
def add_entry():
    """Add new post to database."""
    if not session.get('logged_in'):
        abort(401)
    db = get_db()
    db.execute(
        'insert into entries (title, text) values (?, ?)',
        [request.form['title'], request.form['text']]
    )
    db.commit()
    flash('New entry was successfully posted')
    return redirect(url_for('index'))

Add the appropriate imports:

from flask import Flask, g, render_template, request, session, flash, redirect, url_for, abort

Retest.

}

.error {
  background: #f0d6d6;
  padding: 0.5em;
}

Run your app, log in (username/password = "admin"), add a post, log out.

JavaScript

Next, let's add some JavaScript to make the app slightly more interactive.

Open index.html and update the first <li> like so:

<li class="entry">
  <h2 id="{{ entry.id }}">{{ entry.title }}</h2>
  {{ entry.text|safe }}
</li>

Now, we can use JavaScript to target each <li>. First, we need to add the following script to the document just before the closing body tag:

<script
  type="text/javascript"
  src="{{url_for('static', filename='main.js') }}"
></script>

Create a main.js file in your "static" directory and add the following code:

(function () {
  console.log("ready!"); // sanity check
})();

const postElements = document.getElementsByClassName("entry");

for (var i = 0; i < postElements.length; i++) {
  postElements[i].addEventListener("click", function () {
    const postId = this.getElementsByTagName("h2")[0].getAttribute("id");
    const node = this;
    fetch(`/delete/${postId}`)
      .then(function (resp) {
        return resp.json();
      })
      .then(function (result) {
        if (result.status === 1) {
          node.parentNode.removeChild(node);
          console.log(result);
        }
        location.reload();
      })
      .catch(function (err) {
        console.log(err);
      });
  });
}

Add a new function in app.py to remove the post from the database:

@app.route('/delete/<post_id>', methods=['GET'])
def delete_entry(post_id):
    """Delete post from database"""
    result = {'status': 0, 'message': 'Error'}
    try:
        db = get_db()
        db.execute('delete from entries where id=' + post_id)
        db.commit()
        result = {'status': 1, 'message': "Post Deleted"}
    except Exception as e:
        result = {'status': 0, 'message': repr(e)}
    return jsonify(result)

Update the imports:

from flask import Flask, g, render_template, request, session, flash, redirect, url_for, abort, jsonify

Finally, add a new test:

def test_delete_message(client):
    """Ensure the messages are being deleted"""
    rv = client.get('/delete/1')
    data = json.loads(rv.data)
    assert data["status"] == 1

Make sure to add the following import as well: import json.

Manually test this out by running the server and adding two new entries. Click on one of them. It should be removed from the DOM as well as the database. Double check this.

Then run your automated test suite. It should pass:

(env)$ python -m pytest

Deployment

With the app in a working state, let's shift gears and deploy the app to Heroku. To do this, first sign up, and then install the Heroku CLI.

Next, install a production-grade WSGI web server called Gunicorn:

(env)$ pip install gunicorn==20.0.4

Create a Procfile in the project root:

(env)$ touch Procfile

And add the following code:

web: gunicorn project.app:app

Create a requirements.txt file to specify the external dependencies that need to be installed for the app to work:

(env)$ touch requirements.txt

Add the requirements:

Flask==1.1.2
gunicorn==20.0.4
pytest==6.1.1

Create a .gitignore file in the project root:

(env)$ touch .gitignore

And include the following files and folders (so they are not included in version control):

env
*.pyc
*.DS_Store
__pycache__
test.db

To specify the correct Python runtime, add a new file to the project root called runtime.txt:

python-3.9.0

Add a local Git repo:

(env)$ git init
(env)$ git add -A
(env)$ git commit -m "initial"

Deploy to Heroku:

(env)$ heroku create
(env)$ git push heroku master

Let's test this in the cloud. Run heroku open to open the app in your default web browser.

Bootstrap

Let's update the styles with Bootstrap.

First, remove the style.css stylesheet from both index.html and login.html. Then add this stylesheet to both files:

<link
  rel="stylesheet"
  type="text/css"
  href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.2/css/bootstrap.min.css"
/>

Now, we have full access to all of the Bootstrap helper classes.

Replace the code in login.html with:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Flaskr-TDD | Login</title>
    <link
      rel="stylesheet"
      type="text/css"
      href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.2/css/bootstrap.min.css"
    />
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="container">
      <br /><br />
      <h1>Flaskr</h1>
      <br /><br />

      {% for message in get_flashed_messages() %}
      <div class="flash alert alert-success col-sm-4" role="success">
        {{ message }}
      </div>
      {% endfor %}

      <h3>Login</h3>

      {% if error %}
      <p class="alert alert-danger col-sm-4" role="danger">
        <strong>Error:</strong> {{ error }}
      </p>
      {% endif %}

      <form action="{{ url_for('login') }}" method="post" class="form-group">

            />
          </dd>
          <br /><br />
          <dd>
            <input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" value="Login" />

    <script
      type="text/javascript"
      src="{{url_for('static', filename='main.js') }}"
    ></script>
  </body>
</html>

And replace the code in index.html with:

<!DOCTYPE html>

    <title>Flaskr</title>
    <link
      rel="stylesheet"
      type="text/css"

    <script

    ></script>
  </body>
</html>

Run the app locally:

(env)$ FLASK_APP=project/app.py python -m flask run

Check out the changes in the browser!

SQLAlchemy

Let's upgrade to Flask-SQLAlchemy, in order to better manage the database.

Setup

Start by installing Flask-SQLAlchemy:

(env)$ pip install Flask-SQLAlchemy==2.4.4

Make sure to add it to your requirements file as well.

Next, add a create_db.py file to the project root. Then, add the following code:

# create_db.py


from project.app import db
from project.models import Post


# create the database and the db table
db.create_all()

# commit the changes
db.session.commit()

This file will be used to create our new database. Go ahead and delete the old database file (flaskr.db) along with the project/schema.sql file.

Next, add a project/models.py file, which will be used to generate the new schema:

from project.app import db


class Post(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    title = db.Column(db.String, nullable=False)
    text = db.Column(db.String, nullable=False)

    def __init__(self, title, text):
        self.title = title
        self.text = text

    def __repr__(self):
        return f'<title {self.title}>'

Update app.py

import sqlite3
from pathlib import Path

from flask import Flask, g, render_template, request, session, \
                  flash, redirect, url_for, abort, jsonify
from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy


basedir = Path(__file__).resolve().parent

# configuration
DATABASE = "flaskr.db"
USERNAME = "admin"
PASSWORD = "admin"
SECRET_KEY = "change_me"
SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = f'sqlite:///{Path(basedir).joinpath(DATABASE)}'
SQLALCHEMY_TRACK_MODIFICATIONS = False


# create and initialize a new Flask app
app = Flask(__name__)
# load the config
app.config.from_object(__name__)
# init sqlalchemy
db = SQLAlchemy(app)

from project import models


@app.route('/')
def index():
    """Searches the database for entries, then displays them."""
    entries = db.session.query(models.Post)
    return render_template('index.html', entries=entries)


@app.route('/add', methods=['POST'])
def add_entry():
    """Adds new post to the database."""
    if not session.get('logged_in'):
        abort(401)
    new_entry = models.Post(request.form['title'], request.form['text'])
    db.session.add(new_entry)
    db.session.commit()
    flash('New entry was successfully posted')
    return redirect(url_for('index'))


@app.route('/login', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def login():
    """User login/authentication/session management."""
    error = None
    if request.method == 'POST':
        if request.form['username'] != app.config['USERNAME']:
            error = 'Invalid username'
        elif request.form['password'] != app.config['PASSWORD']:
            error = 'Invalid password'
        else:
            session['logged_in'] = True
            flash('You were logged in')
            return redirect(url_for('index'))
    return render_template('login.html', error=error)


@app.route('/logout')
def logout():
    """User logout/authentication/session management."""
    session.pop('logged_in', None)
    flash('You were logged out')
    return redirect(url_for('index'))


@app.route('/delete/<int:post_id>', methods=['GET'])
def delete_entry(post_id):
    """Deletes post from database."""
    result = {'status': 0, 'message': 'Error'}
    try:
        db.session.query(models.Post).filter_by(id=post_id).delete()
        db.session.commit()
        result = {'status': 1, 'message': "Post Deleted"}
        flash('The entry was deleted.')
    except Exception as e:
        result = {'status': 0, 'message': repr(e)}
    return jsonify(result)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run()

Notice the changes in the config at the top as well as the means in which we're now accessing and manipulating the database in each view function -- via SQLAlchemy instead of vanilla SQL.

Create the DB

Run the following command to create the initial database:

(env)$ python create_db.py

Tests

Finally, update the client fixture in the tests:

@pytest.fixture
def client():
    BASE_DIR = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent
    app.config["TESTING"] = True
    app.config["DATABASE"] = BASE_DIR.joinpath(TEST_DB)
    app.config["SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI"] = f"sqlite:///{BASE_DIR.joinpath(TEST_DB)}"

    db.create_all()  # setup
    yield app.test_client()  # tests run here
    db.drop_all()  # teardown

Update the imports as well:

from project.app import app, db

Ensure the tests pass:

(env)$ python -m pytest

==================================================== test session starts =====================================================

===================================================== 6 passed in 0.28s ======================================================

Manually test the app as well by running the server and logging in and out, adding new entries, and deleting old entries.

If all is well, Update the requirements file:

Flask==1.1.2
Flask-SQLAlchemy==2.4.4
gunicorn==20.0.4
pytest==6.1.1

Commit your code, and then push the new version to Heroku!

Search Page

Let's add a search page. It will be a nice feature that will come in handy after we have a number of posts.

Update app.py

@app.route('/search/', methods=['GET'])
def search():
    query = request.args.get("query")
    entries = db.session.query(models.Post)
    if query:
        return render_template('search.html', entries=entries, query=query)
    return render_template('search.html')

Be sure to write a test for this on your own!

Add search.html

In the "templates" folder create a new file called search.html:

(env)$ touch search.html

Now add the following code to search.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Flaskr</title>
    <link
      rel="stylesheet"
      type="text/css"
      href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.2/css/bootstrap.min.css"
    />
  </head>
  <body>
    <div class="container">
      <br /><br />
      <h1>Flaskr</h1>
      <br /><br />

      <a class="btn btn-primary" role="button" href="{{ url_for('index') }}">
        Home
      </a>

      {% if not session.logged_in %}
      <a class="btn btn-success" role="button" href="{{ url_for('login') }}"
        >log in</a
      >
      {% else %}
      <a class="btn btn-warning" role="button" href="{{ url_for('logout') }}"
        >log out</a
      >
      {% endif %}

      <br /><br />

      {% for message in get_flashed_messages() %}
      <div class="flash alert alert-success col-sm-4" role="success">
        {{ message }}
      </div>
      {% endfor %}

      <form action="{{ url_for('search') }}" method="get" class="from-group">
        <dl>
          <dt>Search:</dt>
          <dd>
            <input type="text" name="query" class="form-control col-sm-4" />
          </dd>
          <br />
          <dd><input type="submit" class="btn btn-info" value="Search" /></dd>
        </dl>
      </form>

      <ul class="entries">
        {% for entry in entries %} {% if query.lower() in entry.title.lower() or
        query.lower() in entry.text.lower() %}
        <li class="entry">
          <h2 id="{{ entry.post_id }}">{{ entry.title }}</h2>
          {{ entry.text|safe }}
        </li>
        {% endif %} {% endfor %}
      </ul>
    </div>
    <script
      type="text/javascript"
      src="{{url_for('static', filename='main.js') }}"
    ></script>
  </body>
</html>

Update index.html

Add a search button for better navigation just below <h1>Flaskr</h1>:

<a class="btn btn-info" role="button" href="{{ url_for('search') }}">Search</a>

Test it out locally. If all is well, commit your code and update the version on Heroku.

Login Required

Currently, posts can be deleted by anyone. Let's change that so one has to be logged in before they can delete a post.

Add the following decorator to app.py:

def login_required(f):
    @wraps(f)
    def decorated_function(*args, **kwargs):
        if not session.get('logged_in'):
            flash('Please log in.')
            return jsonify({'status': 0, 'message': 'Please log in.'}), 401
        return f(*args, **kwargs)
    return decorated_function

Don't forget the import:

from functools import wraps

Be sure to write tests for this on your own!

Next, add the decorator to the delete_entry view:

@app.route('/delete/<int:post_id>', methods=['GET'])
@login_required
def delete_entry(post_id):
    """Deletes post from database."""
    result = {'status': 0, 'message': 'Error'}
    try:
        new_id = post_id
        db.session.query(models.Post).filter_by(id=new_id).delete()
        db.session.commit()
        result = {'status': 1, 'message': "Post Deleted"}
        flash('The entry was deleted.')
    except Exception as e:
        result = {'status': 0, 'message': repr(e)}
    return jsonify(result)

Update the test:

def test_delete_message(client):
    """Ensure the messages are being deleted"""
    rv = client.get("/delete/1")
    data = json.loads(rv.data)
    assert data["status"] == 0
    login(client, app.config["USERNAME"], app.config["PASSWORD"])
    rv = client.get("/delete/1")
    data = json.loads(rv.data)
    assert data["status"] == 1

Test it out locally again. If all is well, commit your code and update the version on Heroku.

Postgres Heroku

SQLite is a great database to use in order to get an app up and running quickly. That said, it's not intended to be used as a production grade database. So, let's move to using Postgres on Heroku.

Start by provisioning a new hobby-dev plan Postgres database:

(env)$ heroku addons:create heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev

Once created, the database URL can be access via the DATABASE_URL environment variable:

(env)$ heroku config

You should see something similar to:

=== dry-garden-92414 Config Vars
DATABASE_URL: postgres://wqvcyzyveczscw:df14796eabbf0a1d9eb8a96a206bcd906101162c8ef7f2e7be5e2f7514c22b48@ec2-54-227-250-19.compute-1.amazonaws.com:5432/d64vugb1eio9h1

Next, update the SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI variable in app.py like so:

SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI = os.getenv(
    'DATABASE_URL',
    f'sqlite:///{Path(basedir).joinpath(DATABASE)}'
)

So, SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI now uses the value of the DATABASE_URL environment variable if it's available. Otherwise, it will use the SQLite URL.

Make sure to import os:

import os

Run the tests to ensure they still pass:

(env)$ python -m pytest

Try logging in and out, adding a few new entries, and deleting old entries locally.

Before updating Heroku, add Psycopg2 -- a Postgres database adapter for Python -- to the requirements file:

Flask==1.1.2
Flask-SQLAlchemy==2.4.4
gunicorn==20.0.4
psycopg2-binary==2.8.6

Commit and push your code up to Heroku.

Snce we're using a new database on Heroku, you'll need to run the following command once to create the tables:

(env)$ heroku run python create_db.py

Test things out.

Linting and Code Formatting

Finally, we can lint and auto format our code with Flake8 and Black, respectively:

(env)$ pip install flake8==3.8.4
(env)$ pip install black==20.8b1

Run Flake8 and correct any issues:

(env)$ python -m flake8 --exclude env --ignore E402,E501 .

./create_db.py:5:1: F401 'project.models.Post' imported but unused
./tests/app_test.py:2:1: F401 'os' imported but unused
./project/app.py:2:1: F401 'sqlite3' imported but unused
./project/app.py:6:1: F401 'flask.g' imported but unused
./project/app.py:7:19: E126 continuation line over-indented for hanging indent
./project/app.py:56:9: F821 undefined name 'abort'

Update the code formatting per Black:

$ python -m black --exclude=env .

reformatted /Users/michael/repos/github/flaskr-tdd/project/models.py
reformatted /Users/michael/repos/github/flaskr-tdd/project/app.py
All done! ✨ �� ✨
2 files reformatted, 4 files left unchanged.

Test everything out once last time!
