+# bad_bookshop
+
+## Project 2: Bookshop website
+This repository contains the code for my submission of the 5001CEM Project (Bookshop) as part of my coursework
+
+## Install instructions
+These are some instructions to get started with the project.
+> Root access to a Python Codio environment is required.
+
+### Create a Python environment on Codio and open the terminal:
+- You can use the 'Open Terminal' button under the Codio project's name, or by clicking Tools > Terminal at the top.
+
+### Clone the repository and switch into its directory:
+- Type `git clone https://github.coventry.ac.uk/5001CEM-2122/bad_bookshop.git` to clone this repository.
+- Type `cd bad_bookshop` to switch into the cloned files.
+- Type `cd static` to switch into the `static` folder
+- Type `mkdir img` to create the folder `img` for saved images.
+- Type `cd ..` to return to the `bad_bookshop` folder.
+
+### Install and activate the virtual environment:
+Type the following in order:
+1. `sudo apt update` 
+2. `sudo apt-get install python3-venv` (_Make sure to enter_ `Y` _when prompted_)
+3. `python3 -m venv venvCODIO` (`venvCODIO` is the venv name defined in the `.gitignore` file.)
+4. `. venvCODIO/bin/activate`
+
+### Install dependencies from the requirements file:
+`pip install -r requirements.txt`
+
+### Setup and run the flask application using the integrated CLI:
+- Type `export FLASK_APP=app` so flask knows where to look to run our code.
+- Type `flask run --host=0.0.0.0` to start the flask app.
+
+### Access the flask app:
+1. Click **Project -> Box Info** at the top.
+2. Copy the first link under the **WEB: Dynamic Content** section.
+3. Paste the link into a browser tab, and change the number at the end to **5000** (It is 80 by default.)
+4. Press enter or reload the tab, and you should now be on the index page for the website.
