        Keg is an opinionated but flexible web framework built on Flask and SQLAlchemy.
        
        
        Keg's Goal
        ==========
        
        The goal for this project is to encapsulate Flask best practices and libraries so devs can avoid
        boilerplate and work on the important stuff.
        
        We will lean towards being opinionated on the big things (like SQLAlchemy as our ORM) while
        supporting hooks and customizations as much as possible.
        
        Think North of Flask but South of Django.
        
        Features
        ========
        
        Default Logging Configuration
        -----------------------------
        
        We highly recommend good logging practices and, as such, a Keg application does basic setup of the
        Python logging system:
        
        - Sets the log level on the root logger to INFO
        - Creates two handlers and assigns them to the root logger:
        
          - outputs to stderr
          - outputs to syslog
        
        - Provides an optional json formatter
        
        The thinking behind that is:
        
        - In development, a developer will see log messages on stdout and doesn't have to monitor a file.
        - Log messages will be in syslog by default and available for review there if no other action is
          taken by the developer or sysadmin.  This avoids the need to manage log placement, permissions,
          rotation, etc.
        - It's easy to configure syslog daemons to forward log messages to different files or remote log
          servers and it's better to handle that type of need at the syslog level than in the app.
        - Structured log files (json) provide metadata details in a easy-to-parse format and should be
          easy to generate.
        - The options and output should be easily configurable from the app to account for different needs
          in development and deployed scenarios.
        - Keg's logging setup should be easy to turn off and/or completely override for situations where it
          hurts more than it helps.
        
        Installation
        ============
        
        `pip install keg`
        
        
        App Configuration
        =================
        
        CLI Command
        -----------
        
        The command `<myapp> develop config` will give detailed information about the files and objects
        being used to configure an application.
        
        Profile Priority
        ----------------
        
        All configuration classes with the name `DefaultProfile` will be applied to the app's config
        first.
        
        Then, the configuration classes that match the "selected" profile will be applied on top of the
        app's existing configuration. This makes the settings from the "selected" profile override any
        settings from the `DefaultProfile.`
        
        Practically speaking, any configuration that applies to the entire app regardless of what context
        it is being used in will generally go in `myapp.config` in the `DefaultProfile` class.
        
        Selecting a Configuration Profile
        ---------------------------------
        
        The "selected" profile is the name of the objects that the Keg configuration handling code will
        look for.  It should be a string.
        
        A Keg app considers the "selected" profile as follows:
        
        * If `config_profile` was passed into `myapp.init()` as an argument, use it as the
          selected profile.  The `--profile` cli option uses this method to set the selected profile and
          therefore has the highest priority.
        * Look in the app's environment namespace for "CONFIG_PROFILE".  If found, use it.
        * If running tests, use "TestProfile".  Whether or not the app is operating in this mode is
          controlled by the use of:
        
          - `myapp.init(use_test_profile=True)` which is used by `MyApp.testing_prep()`
          - looking in the app's environment namespace for "USE_TEST_PROFILE" which is used by
            `keg.testing.invoke_command()`
        
        * Look in the app's main config file (`app.config`) and all it's other
          config files for the variable `DEFAULT_PROFILE`.  If found, use the value from the file with
          highest priority.
        
        
        Views
        =====
        
        While generic Flask views will certainly work in this framework, Keg provides a BaseView that
        applies a certain amount of magic around route and blueprint setup. BaseView is based on Flask's
        MethodView. Best practice is to set up a blueprint and attach the views to it via the `blueprint`
        attribute. Be aware, BaseView will set up some route, endpoint, and template location defaults,
        but these can be configured if needed.
        
        Blueprint Setup
        ---------------
        
        Adding views to a blueprint is accomplished via the `blueprint` attribute on the view. Note,
        BaseView magic kicks in when the class is created, so assigning the blueprint later on will not
        currently have the desired effect.
        
            import flask
            from keg.web import BaseView
        
            blueprint = flask.Blueprint('routing', __name__)
        
        
            class VerbRouting(BaseView):
                blueprint = blueprint
        
                def get(self):
                    return 'method get'
        
        Once the blueprint is created, you must attach it to the app via the `use_blueprints` app attribute:
        
            from keg.app import Keg
            from my_app.views import blueprint
        
        
            class MyApp(Keg):
                import_name = 'myapp'
                use_blueprints = (blueprint, )
        
        Blueprints take some parameters for URL prefix and template path. BaseView will respect these when
        generating URLs and finding templates:
        
            blueprint = flask.Blueprint(
                'custom',
                __name__,
                template_folder='../templates/specific-path',
                url_prefix='/tanagra')
        
            class BlueprintTest(BaseView):
                # template "blueprint_test.html" will be expected in specific-path
                # endpoint is custom.blueprint-test
                # URL is /tanagra/blueprint-test
                blueprint = blueprint
        
                def get(self):
                    return self.render()
        
        Template Discovery
        ------------------
        
        To avoid requiring the developer to configure all the things, BaseView will attempt to discover the
        correct template for a view, based on the view class name. Generally, this is a camel-case to
        underscore-notation conversion. Blueprint name is included in the path, unless the blueprint has
        its own `template_path` defined.
        
        * `class MyBestView` in blueprint named "public" -> `<app>/templates/public/my_best_view.html`
        * `class View2` in blueprint named "other" with template path "foo" -> `<app>/foo/view2.html`
        
        A view may be given a `template_name` attribute to override the default filename, although the same
        path is used for discovery:
        
            class TemplateOverride(BaseView):
                blueprint = blueprint
                template_name = 'my-special-template.html'
        
                def get(self):
                    return self.render()
        
        URL and Endpoint Calculation
        ----------------------------
        
        BaseView has `calc_url` and `calc_endpoint` class methods which will allow the developer to avoid
        hard-coding those types of values throughout the code. These methods will both produce the full
        URL/endpoint, including the blueprint prefix (if any).
        
        Route Generation
        ----------------
        
        BaseView will, by default, create rules for views on their respective blueprints. Generally, this
        is based on the view class name as a camel-case to dash-notation conversion:
        
        * `class MyBestView` in blueprint named "public": `/my-best-view` -> `public.my-best-view`
        * `class View2` in blueprint named "other" with URL prefix "foo": `/foo/view2` -> `other.view2`
        
        Note that BaseView is a MethodView implementation, so methods named `get`, `post`, etc. will be
        respected as the appropriate targets in the request/response cycle.
        
        A view may be given a `url` attribute to override the default:
        
            class RouteOverride(BaseView):
                blueprint = blueprint
                url = '/something-other-than-the-default'
        
                def get(self):
                    return self.render()
        
        See `keg_apps/web/views/routing.py` for other routing possibilities that BaseView supports.
        
        
        Components
        ==========
        
        Keg components follow the paradigm of flask extensions, and provide some defaults for the
        purpose of setting up model/view structure. Using components, a project may be broken down into
        logical blocks, each having their own entities, blueprints, templates, tests, etc.
        
        * Components need to be registered in config at `KEG_REGISTERED_COMPONENTS`
        
          * The path given here should be a full dotted path to the top level of the component
        
            * e.g. `my_app.components.blog`
        
          * At the top level of the component, `__component__` must be defined as an instance of KegComponent
        
            * Depending on the needs of the component, model and view discovery may be driven by the subclasses
              of KegComponent that have path defaults
            * Examples:
        
              * `__component__ = KegModelComponent('blog')`
              * `__component__ = KegViewComponent('blog')`
              * `__component__ = KegModelViewComponent('blog')`
        
        * Component discovery
        
          * A component will attempt to load model and blueprints on app init
          * The default paths relative to the component may be modified or extended on the component's definition
          * Default model path in "model" components: `.model.entities`
        
            * Override via the component's `db_visit_modules` list of relative import paths
        
          * Default blueprint path for "view" components: `.views.component_bp`
        
            * Use the `create_named_blueprint` or `create_blueprint` helpers on the component's `__component__`
              to create blueprints with configured template folders
            * Override via the component's `load_blueprints` list
        
              * List elements are a tuple of the relative import path and the name of the blueprint attribute
        
            * Components have their own template stores, in a `templates` folder
        
              * Override the component's template path via the `template_folder` attribute
        
          * Paths may also be supplied to the constructor
        
            * e.g. `__component__ = KegComponent('blog', db_visit_modules=('.somewhere.else', ))`
        
        
        Keg Development
        ===============
        
        To develop on keg, begin by installing dependencies and running the tests::
        
            git clone https://github.com/level12/keg keg-src
            cd keg-src
        
            cp keg_apps/db/user-config-tpl.py ~/.config/keg_apps.db/keg_apps.db-config.py
            # edit the DB connection info in this file (you don't have to use vim):
            vim ~/.config/keg_apps.db/keg_apps.db-config.py
        
            # Create a virtualenv with a supported python version.  Activate it.
            pip install -e .[tests]
            pytest keg
        
        You can then examine tox.ini for insights into our development process.  In particular, we:
        
        * use `pytest` for testing (and coverage analysis)
        * use `flake8` for linting
