Book Getting started with Flask

Download or read book Getting started with Flask written by Andrés Cruz Yoris and published by Andres Cruz. This book was released on with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide is intended to take your first steps with Flask using Python; with this, we are going to propose two things: It is not a book that aims to know Flask 100%, or from zero to expert, since it would be too big an objective for the scope of this guide, otherwise, to know what it offers us and create the first web applications with Flask , know its extensions, create an API, use Jinja2 among others... It is assumed that the reader has at least basic knowledge of Python development. This book has a practical approach, knowing the key aspects of the technology and moving into practice, gradually implementing small features of an application that has real scope. To follow this book you need to have a computer with Windows, Linux or MacOS. The book is currently in development. This book consists of 20 chapters, with which we will learn in detail the most important and basic features of Flask: Chapter 1: In this chapter we will give an introduction to Python, knowing its basic characteristics and functionalities such as variables, data types, functions, classes, among others. Chapter 2: In this chapter we are going to present the software necessary to create projects in Flask, what happens from Python, to preparing the environment, the editor that we will use, VSC and a web browser. Chapter 3: We present some essential commands to develop in Flask, we will prepare the environment and give an introduction to the framework, we will create a structure for the project in Flask and we will get a basic understanding of the routing for the controllers. Chapter 4: In this chapter we will see how to use the template engine par excellence in Flask, which is Jinja, with which we can return responses in HTML format and customize the page with embedded Python code with which we can customize using blocks, filters, macros, among others. Chapter 5: In this chapter we will see how to connect an application in Flask to a relational database such as MySQL using SQLAlchemy; We will see how to configure a database, connection through the models, generation of automatic migrations based on the models and basic CRUD operations to manipulate the database. Chapter 6: In this chapter we will install the Flask Migrate extension to configure a migration system for the project and in this way be able to customize the tables and have a robust schema to be able to make changes to the database in a practical and scalable way, in addition to be able to create a trace with these changes. Chapter 7: In this chapter we will use the Form WTF extension to create forms, apply validations, initial values and later dump this data into the database, these forms are classes with the aforementioned attributes and in this way we can apply the same schema for server and client side data manipulation. Chapter 8: In this chapter we will see how to use one-to-one, one-to-many and many-to-many relationships in Flask with SQLAlchemy. Chapter 9: In this chapter we will see how to use flash messages useful to inform the user about the operations carried out. Chapter 10: In this chapter we will use Flask Login to create an authentication system and protect drivers. Chapter 11: In this chapter we will see how to implement a Rest Api using the Restful Flash package, generate access tokens and make test connections. Chapter 12: In this chapter we will see how to implement unit tests that are part of the development of any application. To do this, we will use the Pytest package available for Python. Chapter 13: In this chapter we will integrate the Bootstrap 5 web framework to our project in Flask, in this way, we will see how to use both technologies together and we will apply styles to the forms, lists, navigation menu, among others. Chapter 14: In this chapter we will use Flask Babel to add a multilanguage system to the application, to give the application the ability to use more than one language. Chapter 15: In this chapter we will learn about several Flask extensions that we have not used until this chapter, such as cache, CLI, a debug banner, email, among others. Chapter 16: In this chapter we will learn how to create custom decorators to use in controllers. Chapter 17: In this chapter we will integrate a role system into the application, in addition to this, we will enhance the user profile with several options such as the option to change the password, social networks, address, preferred language, among others. Chapter 18: In this chapter we are going to learn about some operations on the database using SQLAlchemy, in addition to knowing how to use the Flask shell. Chapter 19: In this chapter we are going to learn how to use files to manage environment variables in Flask. Chapter 20: In this chapter we are going to create our first experiment which will be a filter to filter by search term, category and tag.

Book Getting started with Vue Native

Download or read book Getting started with Vue Native written by Andrés Cruz and published by Andres Cruz. This book was released on with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vue Native is a framework to create native mobile applications for Android and IOS using JavaScript, specifically Vue; with this technology we can create good quality mobile applications. Another fundamental point is that Vue Native uses the React Native code for each of the components that we have to create our applications; therefore, Vue Native communicates directly with the React Native core to be able to display through components, images, texts, buttons, lists, and much more. The fundamental window that this platform has is that we can use the Vue and React Naive plugins to create our applications. Unfortunately this technology was obsolete at the time of writing this book; therefore, the book does not have all the chapters that were initially thought and it remains as a reference to start with this framework. However, even if it is obsolete or deprecated, it helps us to know everything that this tool offers us, we can use it to encourage us to develop in similar frameworks such as React Native, Galio, among others. As a recommendation, use Visual Studio Code as editor, since it is an excellent editor, with many customization options, extensions, intuitive, light and that you can develop in a lot of platforms, technologies, frameworks and programming languages; so overall Visual Studio Code will be a great companion for you; but, if you prefer other editors like Sublime Text, PHPStorm or similar, you can use it without any problem. Chapters This book has a total of 8 chapters, it is recommended that you read in the order in which they are arranged and as we explain the components of the framework, go directly to the practice, replicate, test and modify the codes that we show in this book. Chapter 1: It explains what is the necessary software, and its installation to develop in Vue Native. Chapter 2: We'll talk about Vue Native technology, create a project, and do some very basic testing. Chapter 3: We will give a detailed explanation of each of the most used components in Vue Native. Chapter 4: We will use a plugin to enable navigation between screens and see its practical use. Chapter 5: We will see the different ways to work with the styles in a project in Vue Native. Chapter 6: We will create a listing app consuming a Rest API on the Internet. Chapter 7: We will see the use of animations in Vue Native in a basic way along with tweens. Chapter 8: We will create a CRUD type application with forms, lists, several pages, validations, confirmation messages and redirections. Who is this book for This book is for anyone who wants to get started with mobile development and knows the basics of Vue. For those who want to know the framework and who know Vue, who want to know current frameworks similar to this one, but do not have the necessary knowledge to venture into these because they do not know the bases that support them. For those people who want to learn something new, learn about a framework that has very little documentation, who want to improve a skill in web development, who want to grow as a developer and who want to continue climbing their path with others frameworks superior to this; As long as you meet at least some of the above considerations, this book is for you.

Book General Alonso de Le  n s Expeditions into Texas  1686 1690

Download or read book General Alonso de Le n s Expeditions into Texas 1686 1690 written by Lola Orellano Norris and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-29 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late seventeenth century, General Alonso de León led five military expeditions from northern New Spain into what is now Texas in search of French intruders who had settled on lands claimed by the Spanish crown. Lola Orellano Norris has identified sixteen manuscript copies of de León’s meticulously kept expedition diaries. These documents hold major importance for early Texas scholarship. Some of these early manuscripts have been known to historians, but never before have all sixteen manuscripts been studied. In this interdisciplinary study, Norris transcribes, translates, and analyzes the diaries from two different perspectives. The historical analysis reveals that frequent misinterpretations of the Spanish source documents have led to substantial factual errors that have persisted in historical interpretation for more than a century. General Alonso de León’s Expeditions into Texas is the first presentation of these important early documents and provides new vistas on Spanish Texas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ambivalent Desires: Representations of Modernity and Private Life in Colombia (1890s-1950s) is a literary and cultural study of the reception of modernity in Colombia. Unlike previous studies of Latin American modernization, which have usually focused on the public aspect of the process, this book discusses the intersection between modernity and the private sphere. It analyzes canonical and non-canonical works that reflect the existing ambivalence toward the modernizing project being implemented in the country at the time, and it discusses how the texts in question reinterpret, adapt, and even reject the ideology of modernity. The focus of the study is how the understanding of the relationship between modernity and private life relates to the project of constructing a modern nation, and the discontinuities and contradictions that appear in the process. The question of what modernity is, its implications for everyday life, and its desirability or undesirability as a new cultural paradigm were central issues in Colombian texts from the end of the nineteenth century through the first half of the twentieth. At stake was the definition of the nation's identity and the project of breaking away from the cultural patterns of the colonial past. Considering that the apparently peaceful process of modernization in Colombia was interrupted in the 1950s by the eruption of political violence across the country, this study situates itself on the eve of a crisis and asks how representations of modernity in texts from the period evidence the social fragmentation that may have led to it. The book begins with an analysis of the theme of the private collection in the work of JosZ Asunci-n Silva, and how it is used to propose a specific notion of personal and cultural identity. It continues with an analysis of the modernizing ideology of the popular magazine El GrOfico during the period of economic prosperity of the 1920s known as the 'Dance of the Millions,' focusing on the publication's advertisements and the section devoted to women and the home. Subsequently, the canonical writings of TomOs Rueda Vargas are analyzed in the context of the relation between autobiographical writing and public life, emphasizing the contradiction between the author's public liberalism and his private conservatism, and highlighting his critique of modern life. The works of previously neglected women writers Manuela Mallarino Isaacs, Juana SOnchez Lafaurie, and Fabiola Aguirre are studied in the context of women's relationship to modernity and their conflict between traditional roles that relegated them to the private sphere, and their desire to accept modern standards. The book concludes with an analysis of the novels of Ignacio G-mez DOvila, which have received scant attention to this date, as it discusses his critique of the upper classes' flight into the private and what the author sees as their alienation from a society on the verge of a crisis.
