'''
FILE NAME
lab_app.py
Version 6

1. WHAT IT DOES
This version adds support for date/time range radio buttons.
 
2. REQUIRES
* Any Raspberry Pi

3. ORIGINAL WORK
Raspberry Full Stack 2015, Peter Dalmaris

4. HARDWARE
* Any Raspberry Pi
* DHT11 or 22
* 10KOhm resistor
* Breadboard
* Wires

5. SOFTWARE
Command line terminal
Simple text editor
Libraries:
from flask import Flask, request, render_template, sqlite3

6. WARNING!
None

7. CREATED 

8. TYPICAL OUTPUT
A simple web page served by this flask application in the user's browser.
The page contains the current temperature and humidity.
A second page that displays historical environment data from the SQLite3 database.
The historical records can be selected by specifying a date range in the request URL.
The user can now click on one of the date/time buttons to quickly select one of the available record ranges.
