Mood Tracker API

A REST API which allows users track their mood.

Features

1. Allows users to Login to their account, and privately submit their current mood to a persistent database. Users can view their mood entries over time.
2. Users who submit at least 1 mood rating daily will maintain a "streak" (a measure of consecutive days in which they submitted to the app).
3. The user's streak percentile compared to other users will be tracked, and if a user is in the 50% percentile, it will be retrievable
4. The development server for the application is containerized using Docker

Testing in the shell

Environment variables have been instantiated in mood_tracker.py

@app.shell_context_processor
def make_shell_context():
    """
