e-commerce-webapp

A flask-based e-commerce web application

How do I run this?

1. Create a .env file and config.yml in project root directory, fill them up as necessary, use the docker-compose file to deploy a mariadb instance (/var/lib/mysql wasn't mapped to a folder on disk, so it will not persist reboots)
2. Install the prerequisites by running:

pip install -r requirements.txt

inside the backend folder.

3. Set the shell environment variable FLASK_APP as backend and then run flask run and the site should be served at http://localhost:5000
