Is Dockerfile missing to copy something? #19

Closed monacofj closed 4 years ago

monacofj commented 4 years ago

Even merging #18, and being able to build and start the container, I still get 404 for root route. I didn't get used to the workings of the application but I can fix it if one can lend me a hand. Is any files missing in the image? I can happily fix pollex-lfask/Dockerfile if the problem happens to lie in there.

There is a misunderstand going on. Flask application is not supposed to serve any html files. It'll serve as a RESTful API.

You can test it by sending a POST request to /auth with a body like this: {"username": "foo", "password": "bar"} with Content-Type: application/json

For example:

curl -i -H "Content-TyType: application/json" -X POST -d '{"username": "foo", "password": "bar"}' http://localhost:8080/auth

I got it. Perhaps the issue description is not clear. I understand that Flask is supporting the RESP API. I mean what is the standard reply to a request like / only, when user is not logged in? A welcome page?

I believe there won't need to be a / route in Flask for the time beign. Maybe the server time or something like that, but we didn't plan anything for that yet.

Ok. Closing as it does not make sense.
