Installing latex-beamer on local directory

First, let the latex aware of the new local directory:
  1. Check out the current configuration file by:kpsewhich texmf.cnf
  2. Copy the texmf.cnf into /home/userName/texmf
  3. Modify the texmf.cnf by add the new directory into the variable TEXMF into texmf.cnf
  4. set up the environment variable TEXMFCNF=/home/userName/texmf either in bashrc or cshrc
  5. Notice that kpsewhich texmf.cnf will return the new local directory after that
By doing so, from now on, latex is going to check the local directory for any style file. Now, assume the local installation directory is going to be /home/userName/texmf/
  1. Download latex-beamer-versionNumber.tar.gz
  2. Create directories /home/userName/texmf/tex/latex/
  3. ln -s /path/to/latex-beamer-versionNumber.tar.gz /home/userName/texmf/tex/latex/
  4. Extract the latex beamer over ther, i.e. tar -xzvf latex-beamer-versionNumber.tar.gz
  5. sudo update-texmf
  6. sudo texhash

Web App Scaling with Flask Blueprint and Namespaces

A real-world Flask-RESTX-based API  may have multiple namespaces. The best practice for scaling a web application is to use a blueprint along with multiple namespace. The namespace is used to group a set of CRUD operations for a specific resource.  Blueprint can be used to combine (mixing) multiple namespaces. Here’s an example directory structure: project\ ├── app.py # Application file ├── apis #    ├── v20 # API directory    │   ├── __init__.py    │   ├── specs.py # API namespaces and REST methods    │   ├── steps.py # API namespaces and REST methods    └── v20bp.py # API blueprint file Here is an example app.py. Using a blue print allow you to mount your API on any url prefix. from flask import Flask from apis.v20bp import blueprint as api app = ...

Documenting REST API with Flask-Restx

This tutorial aims to use the Flask-restx library to implement and to document the REST API. Other similar libraries in the Flask framework include the   flask_resful and  Flask-restplus libraries.  The generated document is shown below.  All the operations are group into a default namespace. All the CRUD operations get, create, and update (except for the the delete operation) are displayed  below.  References -  https://flask-restx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ -  https://preslav.me/2018/12/02/designing-well-structured-rest-apis-with-flask-restplus-part-1/ -  https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/structuring-a-flask-restplus-web-service-for-production-builds-c2ec676de563/ -  https://github.com/cosmic-byte/flask-restplus-boilerplate
