A framework is a code library that makes a developer's life easier when building web applications by providing reusable code for common operations. There are a number of frameworks for Python, including Flask, Tornado, Pyramid, and Django. Flask is a lightweight web application framework. It is classified as a micro-framework because it does not require particular tools or libraries. Side tabs are used for single-page web applications or to display different contents.

Pre-requisite: 

  • Knowledge of Python, 
  • MySQL Workbench, and 
  • basics of Flask Framework. 

Profile Application using Flask

Working with MySQL Workbench

Step-1: Install MySQL workbench. Link to install : https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/ Know more about it : https://www.mysql.com/products/workbench/ Step-2: Install 'mysqlbd' module in your venv.

pip install flask-mysqldb

Step 3: Open MySQL workbench. 

Step 4: Write the following code. The above SQL statement will create our database geekprofile with the table accounts. 

Step-5: Execute the query.

Creating Project 

Step 1: Create an environment, and install Flask

Step 2: Create an empty folder 'geeksprofile'. 

Step 3: Now open your code editor and open this 'geeksprofile' folder. 

Step 4: Create 'app.py' folder and write the code given below. 

Python3 
# Store this code in 'app.py' file
from flask import Flask, render_template, request, redirect, url_for, session
from flask_mysqldb import MySQL

    if 'loggedin' in session:
        if request.method == 'POST' and 'username' in request.form 
        and 'password' in request.form and 'email' in request.form and 
        'address' in request.form and 'city' in request.form and 'country'
        in request.form and 'postalcode' in request.form and 
        'organisation' in request.form:

    return redirect(url_for('login'))


if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run(host="localhost", port=int("5000"))

Step 5: Create the folder 'templates'. create the files 'index.html', 'display.html', 'update.html', 'login.html', and 'register.html' inside the 'templates' folder. 

Step 6: Open the 'login.html' file and write the code given below. In 'login.html', we have two fields i.e. username and password. When a user enters the correct username and password, it will route you to the index page otherwise 'Incorrect username/password' is displayed. 

html 
<!--Store this code in 'login.html' file inside the 'templates' folder-->
<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <title> Login </title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="../static/style.css">    
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="logincontent" align="center">
            <div class="logintop">
                <h1>Login</h1>
            </div></br></br></br></br>
            <div class="loginbottom">
            <form action="{{ url_for('login')}}" method="post" autocomplete="off">
            <div class="msg">{{ msg }}</div>
            <input type="text" name="username" placeholder="Enter Your Username" class="textbox" id="username" required></br></br>
            <input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Enter Your Password" class="textbox" id="password" required></br></br></br>
            <input type="submit" class="btn" value="Login">
            </form></br></br>
            <p class="worddark">New to this page? <a class="worddark" href="{{ url_for('register')}}">Register here</a></p>
            </div>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

Step 7: Open 'register.html' file and write the code given below. In 'register.html', we have nine fields i.e. username, password, email, organisation, address, city, state, country, postal code. When user enters all the information, it stored the data in the database and 'Registration successful' is displayed. 

html 
<!--Store this code in 'register.html' file inside the 'templates' folder-->
<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="UTF-8">
        <title> register </title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="../static/style.css">    
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="registercontent" align="center">
            <div class="registertop">
                <h1>Register</h1>
            </div></br></br>
            <div class="registerbottom">
            <form action="{{ url_for('register')}}" method="post" autocomplete="off">
            <div class="msg">{{ msg }}</div>
            <input type="text" name="username" placeholder="Enter Your Username" class="textbox" id="username" required></br></br>
            <input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Enter Your Password" class="textbox" id="password" required></br></br>
            <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Enter Your Email ID" class="textbox" id="email" required></br></br>
            <input type="text" name="organisation" placeholder="Enter Your Organisation" class="textbox" id="organisation" required></br></br>
            <input type="text" name="address" placeholder="Enter Your Address" class="textbox" id="address" required></br></br>
            <input type="text" name="city" placeholder="Enter Your City" class="textbox" id="city" required></br></br>
            <input type="text" name="state" placeholder="Enter Your State" class="textbox" id="state" required></br></br>
            <input type="text" name="country" placeholder="Enter Your Country" class="textbox" id="country" required></br></br>
            <input type="text" name="postalcode" placeholder="Enter Your Postal Code" class="textbox" id="postalcode" required></br></br>
            <input type="submit" class="btn" value="Register">
            </form>
            <p class="worddark">Already have account? <a class="worddark" href="{{ url_for('login')}}">Login here</a></p>
            </div>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

Step 8: Open 'index.html' file and write the code given below. When a user logs in successfully, this page is displayed, and 'Logged in successful!' is displayed. 

html 
<!--Store this code in 'index.html' file inside the 'templates' folder-->
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <title>index</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="../static/style.css">
    </head>

    <body bgcolor="#e6ffee">
        <div class="one">
            <div class="two">
                <h1>Side Bar</h1>
                <ul>
                    <li class="active"><a href="{{url_for('index')}}">Index</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{{url_for('display')}}">Display</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{{url_for('update')}}">Update</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{{url_for('logout')}}">Log out</a></li>
                </ul>
            </div>
            <div class="content" align="center">
                <div class="topbar">
                    <h2>Welcome!! You are in Index Page!! </h2>                    
                </div></br></br>
                <div class="contentbar">
                    <div class="msg">{{ msg }}</div>
                </div>
                
            </div>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

Step 9: Open 'display.html' file and write the code given below. Here, the user information stored in database are displayed. 

html 
<!--Store this code in 'display.html' file inside the 'templates' folder-->

<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <title>display</title>
        <link rel="stylesheet" href="../static/style.css">
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="#e6ffee">
        <div class="one">
            <div class="two">
                <h1>Side Bar</h1>
                <ul>
                    <li><a href="{{url_for('index')}}">Index</a></li>
                    <li class="active"><a href="{{url_for('display')}}">Display</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{{url_for('update')}}">Update</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{{url_for('logout')}}">Log out</a></li>
                </ul>
            </div>
            <div class="content" align="center">
                <div class="topbar">
                    <h2>Welcome!! You are in Display Page!! </h2>                    
                </div> </br>
                <div class="contentbar">
                    <h1>Your Details</h1> </br>
                    {% block content %}
                        <div class="border">
                            <table class="worddark"></br></br></br></br>
                                <tr>
                                    <td>Username:</td>

            </div>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

Step 10: Open 'update.html' file and write the code given below. The user can update his/her data which also updates the database. 

html 
<!--Store this code in 'update.html' file inside the 'templates' folder-->
<html lang="en">
    <head>
        <title>update</title>
