AgriPulse (Flask + PostgreSQL)

Minimalist website for agriculture use-cases:

• Agriculture-UseofIoTDevices (IoT)
• Drones in agriculture
• Management of water
• Distribution (farm to market)

Tech

• Backend: Flask
• Database: PostgreSQL (via SQLAlchemy ORM)
• Frontend: Server-rendered Jinja templates + modern minimalist CSS

Setup

1. Install dependencies:
   • pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Configure environment:
   • Copy .env.example to .env
   • Update DATABASE_URL to point to your PostgreSQL database
3. Run:
   • python app.py
4. Open:
   • http://localhost:5000

Database

On startup, the app creates the inquiries table automatically (for first-time local use) when DATABASE_URL is set.

If you start the app without DATABASE_URL, the frontend pages still work, but demo requests are blocked until PostgreSQL is configured.

Notes

• The contact form stores inquiries in PostgreSQL.
• In the app code, it uses SQLAlchemy ORM (no handwritten raw SQL).
