Lecture 1

Resources

• Introduction to the class: slides
• HTTP, HTML, CSS: slides
  • server code relying on bottle.py used in class. Get it via:

git clone https://luca_de_alfaro@bitbucket.org/luca_de_alfaro/bottle_intro.git

cd bottle_intro

git checkout class2

In order to use the above code, you need to install bottle.py .

Reading

I recommend giving a glance to the bottle.py documentation. Other resources that may be useful to you:

Python primer (a notebook I wrote)

Here are some commands that form a quick git primer, thanks to our TA Lourdes:

# Print current branch (denoted by *):

git branch -a

# Switch to "branch_name":

git checkout <branch_name>

# Update (fetch any updates):

git fetch

# For example, after cloning web2py_start, do:

cd web2py/applications/start

# Check current branch (the default is usually "master"):

git branch -a

# Switch to the "2018-fall-hw2" branch:

git checkout 2018-fall-hw2

# Confirm switch - check current branch:

git branch -a

# Make sure it is up-to-date - fetch any updates:

git fetch
