Python Web Programming

Master object oriented programming in Python by defining classes, creating objects, and using methods, including init, inheritance, and custom properties to model dynamic programs.

This second part of the Python object oriented programming overview demonstrates how objects interact, use methods like upgrade, and modify attributes with self to manage state.

Master Python modules, their installation with pip, and using them to avoid repeating code. Understand module licensing, open-source options like GPL and MIT, and basics of path and wheel installations.

Explore why databases matter in web development by learning how to store and manage data from the internet for long-term analysis, starting with SQLite and later MySQL.

this lecture introduces SQLite, explains databases as collections of tables, and outlines rows, columns, and data types, highlighting lightweight features and basic SQL operations.

Learn how to insert data into a table by creating an enter_data function, executing insert into statements with values for language, version, and skill, while managing connections and temporary files.

Learn to read data from a database using select queries with where clauses and placeholders, handle dynamic input, print results, and apply limits.

Apply limit, update, and delete SQL operations on a sample table, using select statements with limit, and perform updates with where clauses and proper quotes, then commit changes.

Learn to use Python's urllib library, import urllib.request, send web requests, read server responses, and explore fetching and viewing html source from a web page.

Explore web programming with Python by making HTTP requests using urllib, customizing headers, and parsing HTML with Beautiful Soup, while understanding APIs and server basics.

Explore how the body tag houses a page's dynamic content, including headers and footers. Learn how headings, paragraphs, and standards shape page structure for clear styling and parsing.

Learn to document code with comments, implement footers and div-based layouts, and style elements with style sheets; and explore basic parsing of paragraph data in Python.

Learn how virtual private servers power web hosting, set up a VPS with Digital Ocean, and run Python scripts 24/7 with pay-by-hour hosting.

Explore how a virtual private server operates, log in securely via SSH (or PuTTY on Windows), change the initial password, and manage files and Python environments with apt-get and pip.

Create and access a virtual private server, navigate it with basic commands in a headless setup, and transfer files securely using FileZilla and ssh, with pious t.p. for interserver transfers.

Install mysql server and client. Create the epic d-b database and a programmers table with name, language, and email columns, then explore show databases, use, show tables, and describe.

Learn how to build a reusable python database connection module using MySQLdb, configure host, user, password, and database, test the connection, and import it into scripts.

Learn how to avoid duplicate links when parsing an RSS feed with Python by checking the MySQL database before inserting new links.

Explains how to run a Python script on a server forever with nohup, detaching from the terminal, and managing it with top and kill.

Learn to build a website with Python by turning your existing server into a web server accessible via IP, using Flask and Bootstrap for rapid development and styling.

Update the server, install Python and pip, create a virtual environment, install Flask, test locally, and configure a virtual host with a WSGI file for deployment.

Learn how to implement error handling and HTML templates in Flask with Python, using render_template and a basic index.html to display dynamic content.

Incorporate bootstrap for styling by downloading bootstrap and moving its files into the Flask app's static directory, then load the stylesheet via Flask url_for and explore the grid system.

Extend templates in flask by creating page1.html that extends index.html, defining a block body, and rendering updates. Add an about page and bootstrap styling for a multi-page site.

This course conclusion summarizes Python web programming, covering Python basics, object oriented programming, scraping RSS feeds with BeautifulSoup, and building web apps with Flask using a MySQL database.
