### TODO: get all this inside a docker container and use compose to do the whole set (pg, flask, ?)
see this for postgresal:
https://hub.docker.com/_/postgres (has several env vars that should work out)
and probably this:
https://docs.docker.com/compose/gettingstarted/ (for flask and maybe redis)
# flask -> python web server
# sqlalchemy -> provides db-agnostic python objects of db content (and more)
# flask-sqlachemy combines/wraps this to provide a db.* set of objects based on the 'app' that flask creates
# marshmallow-sqlachemy provides a way to create a 'schema' of your class, then serialize an object to it
# flask-wtf -> 'what the form' allows form consistency/validation based on defining attributes in a class for each form
# flask-bootstrap -> allows me to format that wtf form with boostrap markup - yet to test if it also means I don't need to include it exlicitly in head, etc.
# install needed binaries (maybe I could have done this instead of pip below too -- when I docker this shit, sort it out?)
sudo apt install python3-pip python3-psycopg2 libpq-dev
### LEARN: supposedly could use virtualenv instead of pip3 install --user? OR even apt to install direct?
# --user sticks python libs in ~/.local/[bin|lib|share]
pip3 install --user flask sqlalchemy flask-sqlalchemy flask-marshmallow SQLAlchemy-serializer flask-wtf flask-bootstrap marshmallow-sqlalchemy
# run the web server by:
python3 main.py
### MAYBE:
when moving a book in a series (which is part of 2 series), do we pop-up
offer to move parent/child series orders as well to match (think Thomas Covenant)
### TODO:
- consider created/modifed for all fields? but mostly are they set via ORM for new books?
- need to delete 1 sub_book from book
* swap the 'add sub book' for 'remove from parent book' button and then act on it (separate route, simple sql exec and route back to (no-longer) child book)
(noting that deleting a child book already removes the book_sub_book_link)
- when remove a Parent book from a series, what do we do?
(remove all sub books from series too?)
- need to delete all classes (and watch for referential integrity)
* book (as long as no sub-books)...
NOT tested how this goes with deleting book that is in a loan, or book that is in a series
- can delete:
author, publisher, series, condition, covertype, owned, rating, genre, loan,
- should deleting really just ask if want to mark it as SOLD?
- need to add books to loan (on loan page, and via a book search?)
- need to delete book from loan
- show books on shelf list
- show books to buy view / printable
- show unrated books (with toggle to exclude those with missing in a series)
- show books missing from a series (I own only some of them)
- show books on wish list
- show books that need replacing
- show books I have sold
- show books with poor rating
- view list of possible duplicate books by title
- consider which of the 'books maybe not valid' reports make sense still
(can you even have an N/A publisher now for example, but the genre one is interesting)
- with ORM: should I lazy load all books (ajax the 2nd->last pages in, or not use ORM, and do a quick db.execute()....)
