Flask Extension Skeleton

https://travis-ci.org/inveniosoftware/flask-ext-skeleton.png?branch=master https://coveralls.io/repos/inveniosoftware/flask-ext-skeleton/badge.png?branch=master

Skeleton for starting a new Flask extension according to best practices:

  • Proper Python packaging including best practice for how to provide versioning.
  • Examples of unit tests and doc tests.
  • Examples of user and API documentation.
  • Example of Flask extension class.
  • Documentation using Sphinx and with the default Flask theme.
  • Test coverage and documentation coverage.
  • Travis CI configuration with support for coveralls (test coverage reporting).
  • Python 2.6, 2.7 and Python 3.3 compatibility using six library and easy testing via Tox.

Get started

To start your new Flask extension:

git clone https://github.com/inveniosoftware/flask-ext-skeleton.git flask-<newname>
cd flask-<newname>
rm -Rf docs/_themes/

# Search and replace
git ls-files | grep -v docs/_themes | xargs sed -i -e 's/YourExt/<NewName>/g'
git ls-files | grep -v docs/_themes | xargs sed -i -e 's/yourext/<newname>/g'

# Rename extension
mv flask_yourext flask_<newname>

# Remove this README, and replace with your extension.
rm README.rst
mv README-YourExt.rst README.rst

# Remove old git repository
rm -Rf .git .gitmodules

# Create new git repository
git init .
git a -A
git submodule add https://github.com/mitsuhiko/flask-sphinx-themes docs/_themes/
git ci -m "Initial commit"

# List files you need to edit
git grep CHANGEME

Here is a quick overview over what you can do locally with your newly created extension:

$ mkvirtualenv flask-newname
(flask-newname)$ pip install Sphinx coverage
(flask-newname)$ python setup.py develop

# Run unit tests
(flask-newname)$ python setup.py test

# Run unit tests with test coverage
(flask-newname)$ source run-tests.sh

# Doc tests
(flask-newname)$ python setup.py build_sphinx -b doctest

# Build documentation (docs/_build/html/index.html)
(flask-newname)$ python setup.py build_sphinx

# Documentation coverage
(flask-newname)$ python setup.py build_sphinx -b coverage && cat docs/_build/coverage/python.txt

# Run unit and doc tests in Python 2.6, Python 2.7 and Python 3.3
(flask-newname)$ tox

The default extension include examples of additional package and modules (apackage and amodule). To remove them, simply delete them and update setup.py, docs/userguide.rst and docs/api.rst.

Testing

Running the tests are as simple as:

python setup.py test

or (to also show test coverage)

source run-tests.sh
