Stock-Analyzer

A simple stock price analyzer tool built on Vue.js, Bootstrap, and a Flask backend.

Developer Setup

Using Containers

First you must have Docker installed. I use Chocolatey. This must be done from an administrative console.

# Install chocolatey.
choco install docker-desktop

# Grant regular user account access to docker. Re-login.
Add-LocalGroupMember -Group 'docker-users' -Member domain\username

Now build the Docker image in the default mode which is development mode for this project. Then start the containers.

# Build container images.
docker-compose build

# Bring up containers.
docker-compose up

##--OR--##

# Build container images and bring them up.
docker-compose up --build

This will launch a backend container running Python/Flask and a frontend running Node.js and Vue.js webpack. Both containers will be accessible on the localhost via your browser.

• http://localhost - Main frontend website.
• http://localhost:5000/v1/client/data - Backend API.
