• Since then moving on to SoloLearn on my phone ,then Code institute with SoloLearn agian & then syllabus1_LMS1 & syllabus2_LMS2(cloud9)
• At this stage I was really looking forward to building something real in web development with the flask framework I had heard so much about
• Flasks Micro services was what I was really interested in , I was setting out to incorporate & learn microservices to speed up, improve, &
• build a website
• that could match the mern stack , the mean stack, django , this how ever is a long term goal as I am very pleased on how far I was able to
• push the development
• of this website
• I wanted to see if I could develop a messaging system without having to leave the flask eco system
• Creating Database for users & Post & followers with SQLACHemy
• A driver behind the conception of this project is the one to many, & many to many database relationsip of the followers
• For this task I would need a database, this was a key feature that I needed to explore & my application would depend on it
• I also wanted to explore Flask-SQLAlchemy, the orm which allows a dev to programme a database
• Another key driver behind this project was idea of building a fullstack application with flask & cloud9, this was of course a challenge

The style of this website is very minimil, with a small bit of inline styling, this was down to the fact I wanted to focus on fuctionalty

• The nav bar is white to match the rest of the page , this is my attempt to bring the website together, with the hover of the links coming from
• the defualt styles from FlaskBootStrap, I also restyled the color of the navbar links , this had a massive effect on such a plain interface
• Changing the mail notification icon was also a massive changer in the over all aesthetics of my application
• When arriving on CodeNote you will be met with a sign in page where the user has the option of signing into the application
• or registering a new account, the user also has the option of email recovery & a remember me checkbox, since this is the first page
• the user will see,
• Once the user has logged in, the user will be greeted with a message with there user name that they had just signed with
• The main CodeNote/posts/forum/ page is accessible through the navbar with the link CodeNote,
• The users mail, logout , profile , & search engine are also availible on this page

Once on this page the user has the abitly to go home to his own posts/notes page or the user can go staright to his profile page or

• straight to his own mail page,
• This page the main page , is also the page with all the users ,here the user can select another user & view there profile
• When hovering over a user name a popup box will appear with details about the user such as There user name , there most recent
• Post/CodeNote, &
• the last time there were seen aswell as the date & year
• Also in this pop up box users can observe how many followers a user has & how many there are following
• The pop up box is also interactive, a user can select a user name & be transported to there profile page or a users profile page
• They can also follow or unfollow a user by accessing there profile page , but the user can not follow themselves
• The users profile page is also the page where other coders/users can private message another coder/user
• The home page is the page where users can leave a Note/Post & then this Note/Post will show up on the CodeNotes page, & there own home page
• This application can come in very handy indeed , if 2 developers were working on a project ,
• they could very easliy communicate with one another through the use of the mailing system
• with little to no distraction
• More devs on the note page or more team members could also join in & solve problems about there code & advise on going forward
• Where this application also would come in very handy is in a small business, or family business,
• This would give the all the team members access the communication to one another completly free of charge
• where this application can also be used is in a in house restaurnat communication system

The setup for this project was similer Django but with slight variations

• First I created a blank instance with an ubuntu server on cloud 9
• Then I ran the command sudo pip install virtualenv, this installed the virtualenv that comes bundled with the ubuntu server
• Next I created my venv with virtualenv -p python3 env <<<-----name of virtual enviroment
• My next task was to activate the virtualenv with clivenoonan:~/workspace $ source env/bin/activate
• Since I had the majority of my project already built on a different ubuntu cloud workspace server, I copy & pasted my requirements.txt
• file into my new project
• Next I ran the command pip freeze -r requirements.txt
• Also pip install --upgrade -r requirements.txt, this updated & synced my packages to my project folder
• Finally I started my development folder, with the command env/bin/flask run --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8080
• After settting my env vars in heroku , when evr I neede to workon my project after I set the vars , I would have to run export
• FLASK_APP=blog.py
• If I wanted to workon my project with debug mode on I would run the command export FLASK_DEBUG=1 <<---ON
• To turn debug off for deployment I would run the command export FLASK_DEBUG=0 <<-- OFF
• To run my local debug built in email server I would run the command python -m smtpd -n -c DebuggingServer localhost:8025 in a new terminal,
• with my bash
• terminal also running

• blueprints are a brillant feature to the flask framework, a good example of this is this project , I fully indented to build my
• project with a
• blueprint structure , for large applications, even tho this is only a meduim to a small application, blueprints had a massive effect
• on the organisation
• of my project
• In Order to achieve this I created a main / auth/ errors BluePrints inside of my app folder
• I then registered my BluePrints in my __init package file
• This is similer to Django each BluePrint is like there own app

• In Order to automate my env vars I configured a .env file , this technique is used by many frameworks such node.js, Django
• I also needed to install the dot.env exstention with the pip package manager with the command pip install python-dotenv
• To connect my python package with the alias of dot.env in my config.py file I created this alias in my config class
• Next I needed to create my.env file this is where I stored my SECRET_KEY, MAIL_SERVER, MAIL_PORT, MS_TRANSLATOR_KEY, variables
• while my application was running I saved my .env file , this process imports my varibles from me to my appliaction

• To keep my packages up to date & in sync with my 3 repos GitHub/Heroku/Local
• I adopted the requirements.txt techniuqe , I updated & synced my package requirments with the pip package manager with the command pip install
• pip freeze > requirements.txt this essentially dumped all my projects dependencies to my requirements.txt, Heroku will heavily depend on this file in the
• deployment stages of my project
• When future up dates to my project are nessacary , I can then reproduce my project with just my requirements.txt file , aswell another developer

• To work & set up my forms I had to have venv activated & I had intitiatd the project with my FLASK_APP=blog.py
• & ran my server
• this was the only I could get cloud 9 to run the server
• A core component of my application is webforms, I accomplished this with Falsk web forms & the Flask-WTF exstention package which I installed with pip
• the python package manager, while my venv was active with the command pip inatll flask-wtf

• flask babel & the message.pot workflow was a challenging micro service to intergrate in to my project
• In order to get up & running I needed install flask babel, I again installed this database python package with the pip package manager
• with the command pip install flask-babel
• I then again imported flask-babel package from flask & created an instance with an application as an argument in my mother _init.py
• Next was to update my config.py to support my applications langauge prefrences
• In order to use my flask babel package I first needed to create a babel.cfg file with my jinja templates & python paths programmed
• to parse
• My next command was to extract my languages with the command pybabel extract -F babael.cfg -k _l -o messages.pot
• POT or otherwise known as portable object template
• To compile my this file to a format so babel can compile at runtime
• To achive this I used the babael package again & ran the command pybabel compile -d when running this command in your own project
• this is where you need provide your top level directory path
• After compilation babel will generate a new messages.po, this is the file that will contain my langauges translations
• To extract any new langauges I just needed to run the command pybabel extract -F babael.cfg -k _l -o messages.pot .
• This command once again extracted my text , for the changes to take effect to my babel workflow, I needed to update
• I used the similer command pybabel update -i messages.pot -d app/transaltions
• This command updated my pot files with any new langauges that I decided to add to my project

• With accessibilty as the main point of this feature , language translation on each post would bring this application international
• With the transalate button acting as my hook to my Micrsoft Azure API Key
• I used Ajax to asynchronously update my translations
• To ahcieve this I neededd to create client side js scripts
• Next task was to set my MicroSoft Azure Translate Service API key
• This is a free thier, perfect for testing
• Next I had to add a translator resource in my Azure portal
• After retreiving & copying my API Key
• I next I installed guess_language_spirit & requests
• I achieved this with the python package with the pip package manager
• I ran the command pip install guess_language_spirit requests
• My next task was to update my models in my project models to take effect to my database, I needed to run a upgrade command,
• flask db upgrade became a part of my migration workflow
• I then worked with the commands
• flask db migrate
• flask db upgrade
• I next updated my routes to match my models logic

• To create my database I used the python eco system to my advantage
• I used SQLAlchemy, I again installed this database python package with the pip package manager
• SQLAlchemy is a ORM a object relational mapper, this package will act as the client to work with my python code
• I needed another package to migrate my database during production, I needed a database migration framework
• for this I installed flask migrate with the pip package manager
• SQLAlchemy is not a database it is a mapper , so I also needed a database, for this task I chose sqlite for the devlopment database
• To create my database with SQLAlchemy I needed to configer my project to my os base line under system in my config.py
• I then needed to create my models
• This led me to my migration workflow, to migrate my database during production of my project I needed to create a database repository
• to update my schema
• To work with my database I needed to initiiaise my repository with the command flask db init
• This created an automatic migration folder into my project on cloud9
• to create my first migration I used to command flask db migrate -m "just like git commit messsage ", just like git a message can be included in your migration
• for the changes in my project models to take effect to my database, I needed to run a upgrade command,
• flask db upgrade became a part of my migration workflow, this command automatically generated a sqlite.db database in my project,
• I then worked with the commands

• to manage & observe my database
• to populate my tables in my database I worked in the python interactive shell , I entered this shell with the command
• python
• I also used flask shell , this eliminated the need to import my instance into my python shell everytime I wanted to manage my database
• I entered my flask shell with the command flask shell

• The Schemas in my application are a one to many relationship
• With post ownership representing my one to many relationship
• My one to many relationship is modeled so one user can write multiple posts
• The follower Schema in my application is a many to many relationship
• This is why my followers table is the most complex
• With A follower user following many users aswell been followed by many users
• So I have many to many relatonships managed by ORM

• To implement this feature in my project I needed to create my followers table in my modles.py
• Which will be mapped & managed with my ORM
• to create my first migration I used to command flask db migrate -m "just like git commit messsage ", just like git a message can be
• included in my migration
• for the changes in my project models to take effect to my database, I needed to run a upgrade command,
• flask db upgrade became a part of my migration workflow
• I then worked with the commands
• flask db migrate
• flask db upgrade
• flask db downgrade
• flask db current
• flask db history

• To convert time in the browser using javascript I used a library called Moment.js
• I again installed this package with the pip package manager with the command pip install flask-moment
• I then again imported flask-babel package from flask & created an instance with an application as an argument
• Next added a Moment.js JavaScript Block to my base template
• I then updated my jinja template code to reflect my changes , this was to show moment.js timestamp for the profile user
• Also I updated my posts jinja templates, this was to insure all pages that will dispaly posts/notes wil display there time stamp

• For password recovery & emails I used flask-mail
• For password recovery I used pyJWT
• pyjwt will be sending links that include secuirty tokens , this is where I needed my jwt python package
• With my venv active I needed to install flask-mail & pyJWT
• I again installed these packages with the pip package manager with the command pip install flask-mail pyjwt
• To initliase flask-mail, just like my similer micro services, I needed to import into my mother init.py package file
• I then again imported flask-mail package from flask & created an instance with an application as an argument in my mother _init.py
• To test my builtin email server I ran the command python -m smtpd -n -c DebuggingServer localhost:8025
• This started a test email server succesfully, to configer my server to listen to my sister terminal
• I needed to set my ENV VARIABLE, I acheievd this with the command
• export MAIL_SERVER=localhost
• export MAIL_PORT=8025

• The notifications & messages feature was one of the main 2 features I wanted to implement in this project,
• This was down to there dynamic nature
• I also wanted to discover how to achieve this while staying inside the flask eco system
• My first task was to add a new model in my projects models.py file to create the database tables which inturn would work with my messaging system
• I also updated my user models model class
• Next was my forms.py
• Next up was my routes.py , I created a new route that would accept & recieve messages using the GET & POST method
• I aslo created my jinja if statements in my user templates, to reflect if a user is viewing a profile that is not there own they will see the send private
• link , if there are on there own profile they will !not see the send private message link
• I also updated my templates to reflect my messaging system with html messaging templates
• I then added a new message method in my route.py
• In order to have emphasis on the mail link in my navbar which is present on all pages, aswell as the drop down on mobile navigation
• I needed to include my jinja if statements in my base.html to define that if the message count is 0 there is nothing dispalyed
• My mail badge will appear only when there is unread message
• In order to make my badge more dynamic I need to use js by using a jquery fuction that searches for an element that repesents the badge
• when jquery finds the element the css method is applied by changing the visibilty of the badge to visible when there is a message &
• not viisble when there is !not a message
• Next was to create my notification models , I used the payload_json for this operation
• because of this addition I also added a new model field to my main models.py to reflect my changes

• To test my API Key
• I first needed to assocaite my application with my MS_TRANSLATOR_KEY
• I achieved this by exporting another Enviroment Variable
• I achieved this with in my terminal , with my venv active I ran export MS_TRANSLATOR_KEY="api key from azure go,s here without the qoutes" in the cli while
• sister cli server is running
• Now my key is in my env my Next task was to update my projects config.py
• Flask Shell was next to test my api in my terminal
• I achieved this with the command flask shell
• My earlier installation of the python package requests will now come in to play in my apllication with a get request to microssoft for api validation

• First I needed obtain my microsoft url in my portal documentation
• In my terminal with my python flask shell active I first ran the config command form microsoft
• In my terminal with my python flask shell active I first imported my requests
• With the command

r = requests.get('https://api.microsofttranslator.com/v2/Ajax.svc/Translate?text= como estas?&from=es&to=en', headers={'Ocp-Apim-Subscription-key': app.config['MS_TRANSLATOR_KEY']})

• I then needed to import requests

import requests

• I then needed to run r = requests.get('https://api.microsofttranslator.com/v2/Ajax.svc/Translate?text=hola como estas?&from=es&to=en', headers={'Ocp-Apim-Subscription-key': app.config['MS_TRANSLATOR_KEY']})
• Next was check my status code for my get request with this code

r.status_code

• This was because I stored my request in my r variable 200
• the final task was check my contend to verify the translation was succesfull
• I did this with r.content command in my python flask shell

r.content b'\xef\xbb\xbf"Hi, how are you?"'

• TranslationsTestingInMyTerminalScreenShot

• To test my email in my terminal instance with my jwts
• to test my email I imported my flask app Message instance into my terminal session, from here
• I ran the command flask shell

from flask_mail import Message from app import mail msg = Message('test subject', sender=app.config['ADMINS'] [0], recipients=['[email protected]']) msg.body = 'text body' msg.html = '

HTML body

' mail.send(msg)

• MyTestEmail
• I then updated my email.py methods & my jinja templates
• next was to update my routes
• After my testing was complete I updated my routes to reflect my changes, my translate route

• To use tokens in my emails I needed to base my structure on the Jason web token specification
• With this method I could create secure tokens that connot be forged according to jwt standards
• These jwt tokens are crypyographically signed , according to jwt standards, tampering with the data that jwt handles the data renders
• this signature invaid , this inturn rejects the token
• This whole process is controlled by the famous algorithm='HS256')
• With this package I generated hash tokens
• With this command I could verify & test the secuirty my applications email
• I achieved this by once again importing my jwt package into my flask terminal instance in my cloud9 ide with my venv active
• to test my email secuirty I imported my flask app Message instance into my terminal session, from here
• I ran the command flask shell

import jwt token = jwt.encode({'a' : 'b'}, 'my-secret', algorithm='HS256')

• Next I needed to print my token , I acheived this with the command

token b'eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJhIjoiYiJ9.dvOo58OBDHiuSHD4uW88nfJikhYAXc_sfUHq1mDi4G0'

• MyTestjwt
• Next I needed to verify my token, I acheived this the commands

jwt.decode(token, 'my-secret', algorithms=['HS256']) {'a':'b'}

• I then updated my models.py with my jwt decoding

• to test my tokens I started a new flask shell session
• I ran the command flask shell

u = User.query.get(1) u

• Next task was to update my forms.py & my jinja templates

• To test my newly created email & password recovery feature I started my debugging server once again with the command
• python -m smtpd -n -c DebuggingServer localhost:8025
• Next I went to my application which was running a in my cloud9 instance
• On the main interface where a user logs in, the first page the user is greeted with I filled in the relevent details to recover my password

• To integrate Email password recovery into my application I used flask mail & jwt tokens for incryption
• I did have a succesfull recovery of an email through the use of pasting the url I recieved in my testing of this feature
• I have yet to determine if Another outside of my network can achieve the same
• Seemingly it is more diffucult than you think to convince users to signup for a social messaging application

• The transaltions feature of this application, was by far the most difficult work flow tp master
• I am convinced to problem lies in my compileing of my ready made spanish messages.pot file
• I will be looking to this bug & when I have it resolved I will update this bug notice

• When installing redis I had a succesfull installation & I was succesfull in starting a redis server in a sister terminal
• I was not succesfull in connecting to my server for testing

• To integrate Elastic Search into my flask application I needed install it on cloud9 , I had an installation failure here also

• The stages to deploy this project were very ordered & structured,
• first I needed to make sure I had an up to date version of HerokuCLI
• Once established I proceeded to login to my heroku account in my cloud9 bash terminal
• With my project all ready under source control I reinitilised my git repo with git init
• My Next task was to create an app with a unique name from the HerokuCLI with the command heroku apps:create
• With my new app created I recieved my new heroku git address/url
• I clarafied my new remote address with the command git remote -v
• To clarafai my app creation I checked my heroku cloud managment console once satisfied I proceeded
• Heroku,s ephemeral file system dictates that the file storage is not permanant, because of this I used the technuigue of provisioning a postgres database on my
• heroku platform
• I achieved this with the HerokuCLI by running the command heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql:hobby-dev , this gives me the free thier , the excate same as
• creating from the heroku cloud managment console
• this task attached a database url connection & set the env varaiable to DATABASE_URL , this url acts as a pointer when I deploy my application to my new
• postgres database

• Next task in deployment was to update my requirements.txt with the package psyscop2 & gunicorn
• psyscop2 is the postgres database driver sql depands on this driver when you connect to a postgres database with heroku as the hosting platform
• I also added gunicorn , this package is required to connect to heroku server,
• next I needed to freeze my requirements to make sure all my packages are updated & in sync
• Procfile was next up , I created this file in the top level of my project folder on cloud9 & then added the relevent values to tell heroku
• what type of app is being served
• in my Procfile I made the necessary configerations of web: flask db upgrade; flask translate compile; gunicorn blog:app
• I then used the herokCLI to set my env variable with the command heroku config:set FLASK_APP=blog.py
• With this command this env variable, will exist in heroku in side the application env

• Next I needed to
• Git add ./Git commit -m ""/ Git push/ to my local repo on my machine
• this will also sync my repo on GitGub, now both my branchs are now at the master branch
• Finally I ran the command Git push heroku master to sync my Heroku repo

• The project folder lives at this address github <------ THIS IS THE LIVE PROJECT FOLDER
• heroku
• origin

• If you want to setup this project on cloud 9 you can clone this repo & follow the setup instructions in the beginning of this file for cloud9
• If you get stuck leave a codenote on my website, or you can private message me, & I will gladly help you out
• If you dont have cloud9, then there is number of steps you will have to take in order to get this application from your workspace into your server
• flask & python environment,
• first you will have to have python3 installed on your pc/laptop/machine/computer
• next you will need git installed on your pc/laptop/machine/computer to clone my workspace from github
• next up you will have setup your venv, there are numerous workflows to guide you on this topic
• The reason I am not providing a more broader explanation on how exaclty how to do it is
• You will 100% find your own workflow, wheather it with the pip installer, the pip wrapper
• You will soon become a custom to creating venv,s in seconds
• Always use venv,s in your python projects not just flask
• For the sake of going through the task of mastering the workflow, it will be way more worth than your time
• It will save you endless hours of debugging & confusion to why your packages are conflicting with each other,
• This will happen if you just run , test , serve python projects in your workspace !without a venv
• Learning to setup a venv from & inside your terminal is essenital, which ever it maybe,
