An interface to manage the selling of chickens for my parents local store. A simple tool for private use. Also my first independent React project after a learning the framework. Dont expect high quality code (instead expect Bootstrap). Uses a localhost flask backend with a sqlite databse. Run the server with python server.py and the frontend with npm start.
- Delete previous "dist" folder if given
- pyinstaller will create new dist folder
- in dist folder we need folders "static" and "databse"
- static needs to be filled with react npm build, database can be empty
- Build REACT app:
npm run build
-
create folder "static" (flask wants a folder named "static")
-
copy the react build from ./build into ./static (move subfolders and files up to this folder: "./build/static/" -> "./static/")
pip install pyinstaller
pyinstaller server.py --onefile
-
move "static" folder into "dist" folder with server.exe in it
-
create folder "database" in "dist"
You can now start server.exe to run the program and it will open the web frontend automatically.
