Example Flask app running on Cloud Foundry

This repo contains the bare bones of a flask app which runs inside Cloud Foundry (CF).

Steps To A Running App

1. Install the cf CLI tool

• Download an "INSTALLER" from https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cli/releases
  • On OSX, right-click and open it once it's downloaded
    • Otherwise it'll complain about code signing

1. Get cf authenticated and working against the CF API

• Open the terminal (we'll be using it for the entire session ...)
• Run cf login -a https://api.eu-gb.bluemix.net
  • Follow the prompts to get to the cf-training space

1. Copy manifest-template.yml to manifest.yml
2. Edit manifest.yml as indicated inside the file
3. cf push -f manifest.yml

• The -f is optional iff using this exact filename, but it's a good habit to get into

1. Browse to the FQDN the cf push tells you it's registered
