This is a demo app meant to get population related data from World Bank Website and display it as a table. It can be refactored or expanded to include other available databases. It is also possible to add data visualizations to this app.
The idea is to build a framework which can then be easily used by anyone to build simple data apps.
- fastapi 0.63.0
- gunicorn 20.0.4
- Jinja2 2.11.2
- pandas 1.1.4
- requests 2.22.0
- uvicorn 0.13.3
- wbgapi 1.0.5
There are two possible ways to use this app
- Run Locally To run the app locally create a clone of the app. Then change the port number in app.py to any other than 80 (default port for internet access). Install requirements by using "pip install requirements.txt" Start app by typing "python app.py" in terminal or command shell.
- Run Using Docker
It is also possible to create a docker container.
Just Open the folder in terminal or command shell.
Use the command
docker build -t <app_name> .Once the app is built use the commanddocker run --rm --name <app_name_running> -p {local_port}:{docker_image_port} -ti <container_name>
The best way to deploy this app is to use a serverless service such as AWS Farget or GCP CloudRun. To do that simply build the docker container and upload it to the Cloud repository. Then follow the instructions on these services to deploy the container. (GCP instructions can be found here https://cloud.google.com/run/docs/quickstarts/build-and-deploy/python)
It is also possible to automate the process by using cloudbuild or similar services.
