flask user create demo
If your application uses blueprints, you can optionally register cli
commands directly onto them.
When your blueprint is registered onto your application the associated
commands will be available to the ``flask`` command.
By default those commands will be nested in a group matching the
name of the blueprint. ::
from flask import Blueprint
bp = Blueprint('students', __name__)
@bp.cli.command('create')
@click.argument('name')
def create(name):
...
app.register_blueprint(bp)
::
flask students create alice
You can alter the cli group name by specifying the ``cli_group`` keyword
argument when creating the :class:`Blueprint` object or later during
:meth:`app.register_blueprint(bp, cli_group='...') <Flask.register_blueprint>`
process, the following are equivilant::
bp = Blueprint('students', __name__, cli_group='other')
...
app.register_blueprint(bp, cli_group='other')
::
flask other create alice
Specifying ``cli_group=None`` will remove the nesting and merge the commands
directly to the application's level::
bp = Blueprint('students', __name__, cli_group=None)
...
app.register_blueprint(bp, cli_group=None)
::
flask create alice
See :ref:`testing-cli` for an overview of how to test your custom
commands.
