What You Will Learn Set up a best practices Python environment Use SQLAlchemy to programmatically query a database Develop templates in Jinja Set up an MVC environment for Flask Discover NoSQL, when to use it, when not to, and how to use it Develop a custom Flask extension Use Celery to create asynchronous tasks In Detail Flask is a library that allows programmers to create web applications in Python. Flask is a micro-framework that boasts a low learning curve, a large community, and the power to create complex web apps. However, Flask is easy to learn but difficult to master. Starting from a simple Flask app, this book will walk through advanced topics while providing practical examples of the lessons learned. After building a simple Flask app, a proper app structure is demonstrated by transforming the app to use a Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture. With a scalable structure in hand, the next chapters use Flask extensions to provide extra functionality to the app, including user login and registration, NoSQL querying, a REST API, an admin interface, and more. Next, you'll discover how to use unit testing to take the guesswork away from making sure the code is performing as it should. The book closes with a discussion of the different platforms that are available to deploy a Flask app on, the pros and cons of each one, and how to deploy on each one. Style and approach With plenty of useful examples, this guide introduces new concepts and then shows you how those concepts can be used in a real-world environment. Most sections are based around a single example app that is developed throughout the book.

Book excerpt: Python for Web Python definitely tops the charts when it comes to ease of use and beginner-friendly learning curve in the world of programming languages. At the same time, Python is essential when it comes to writing system scripts, processing big data, performing mathematical computations, creating web applications, and rapid prototyping. With this Mastering edition, we have focused especially on the usage of Python for Web. This book explores Python programming fundamentals with interactive projects and introduces core coding concepts and the basics of Python-based web development. The reader should be ready to dive deep into the world of Python for web development in no time. Since Python positions itself in web development as a back-end language, it is usually mixed with another front-end language to build a whole website. At the same time, reasons for using Python in web development are many: it is a flexible, versatile, and highly efficient programming language with dynamic typing capacity. This book helps readers to examine Python's key back-end/front-end programming techniques and guides them through implementing them when creating professional projects. Furthermore, it also focuses on teaching readers how to solve common problems and developing web services with Python frameworks such as Django and Flask. Mastering Python for Web has a goal more ambitious than simply teaching you the ropes - it aims to help you embrace and master problem solving, which could be viewed as the single most crucial skill for a coder. It offers you a focal point on starting as a beginner and growing into an expert by putting your newly acquired knowledge into practice. Programming is a hands-on skill, and this particular book helps you put your skills to test with easy-to-grasp tasks and examples.
