Function Name: create_user

[MagnusLii]

Instead of a json containing the userID and espID the function takes in each of these as separate arguments.

def create_user(username, deviceID):
    try:
        user = Users(Username=username, DeviceIndex=deviceID)
        db.session.add(user)
        db.session.commit()

        return True, "User created successfully."

    except Exception as errorMsg:
        return False, str(errorMsg)
