Database Interaction
This section outlines the database interaction strategy for the Flask application. Currently, the application does not directly interact with a database.
The application uses a Flask Blueprint architecture, which separates application functionality into modular components. This architecture enables clear organization of application features and facilitates scalability.
The application includes two Blueprints:
- ‘data’: This Blueprint handles processing incoming JSON data and returning it as a JSON response. This Blueprint provides a simple example of handling data without database interaction. [Source:
blueprints/data.py] - ‘greetings’: This Blueprint handles simple greeting messages. This Blueprint illustrates basic routing and response handling, independent of database operations. [Source:
blueprints/greetings.py]
The application’s main entry point (app.py) registers these Blueprints, enabling their use within the application. [Source: app.py]
The application’s test suite (tests/test_app.py and tests/test_app_single.py) includes tests for the application’s functionality, but these tests do not currently involve database interaction.
This documentation provides a snapshot of the current database interaction approach within the Flask application. Future enhancements may involve integrating a database for data storage and retrieval, requiring modifications to the application’s codebase.
