• Display uploaded content grouped by chapters.
• Separate routes for upload form and content display.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• Virtual environment (optional but recommended)

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository_url>
   cd everyones-gita

2. Create a virtual environment (optional but recommended):

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows, use `venv\Scripts\activate`

3. Install the dependencies:

   pip install Flask Flask-SQLAlchemy

4. Set up the project structure:

   Ensure your project directory looks like this:

   everyones-gita/
   ├── app.py
   ├── templates/
   │   ├── index.html
   │   └── upload.html
   ├── static/
   │   └── uploads/
   └── uploads.db
   

Running the Application

1. Start the Flask application:

   python app.py

2. Visit the following URLs in your web browser:

   • Upload Form: http://127.0.0.1:5000/upload
   • Display Uploaded Content: http://127.0.0.1:5000/

Clearing the Database

To clear the database of previous uploads, you can use the /clear_db route. This is useful for development purposes but should be removed or protected in a production environment.

Send a POST request to this route:

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:5000/clear_db
