Manage Apps

Overview

You can find a list of all child apps routers in the _apps.py system module.

Create App

You can simply create a new app by running the following command:

It will prompt you for some required arguments.

As an example, here we will create an app called notes:

• Valid characters for App Name are: a-z, _ (Notice that the - character itself is not valid.)
• Valid characters for App URL are: a-z, - (Notice that the _ character is not valid.)
• All characters must be in English lowercase alphabetical letters.

For simplicity, it is recommended to use the same name for your App Name & App URL.

You must provide unique names for both parameters or else you will get an error message!

The above command creates the following components for the newly created app:

• Controller blueprints.
• View blueprints
• Static blueprints.
• Form blueprints.

It also updates the _apps.py module for you, so you don't need to update it manually.

Delete App

You can simply delete an existing app by running the following command:

It will prompt you for some required arguments.

As an example, here we try to delete an existing app called notes:

It will alert you with the data loss, if you confirm, it will delete all the data for the selected app.

Here we enter no, because we need this app for the remaining sections of this documentation.

If the requested app doesn't exist, it will alert you.
