Amounts and worked/vacation/sick statuses selected for dates are stored persistently in instance/calendar.sqlite, which is created automatically on first launch.

Run it

python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
waitress-serve --host=0.0.0.0 --port=9009 fatima:app

To use a different port, substitute it in the command (for example, --port=8080). The application exposes its WSGI callable as fatima:app, so it can also be used by platforms that ask for an application entry point.

Set the username, password, and Flask signing key in config.yaml before starting. This file is excluded from Git. Use config.example.yaml as the documented template when setting up another machine.

The two paid quick-choice buttons are configured in the same file:

amounts:
  presets:
    - "55"
    - "27.50"

The €0 and custom-amount controls remain available automatically.

Reverse proxy path

The app is served below /fatima by default. Configure the external path in config.yaml:

flask:
  url_prefix: "/fatima"

Set URL_PREFIX in the environment to override this value at deployment time. Use an empty value (url_prefix: "" or URL_PREFIX=) to serve from / instead. The reverse proxy must preserve the prefix when forwarding requests to Waitress.

Import the Excel calendar

Preview an import without changing the database:

python scripts/import_excel.py /path/to/fatima.xlsx

Add --apply to import. The command backs up the existing SQLite file before updating it.

On the iPhone, visit http://<your-computer-on-the-local-network>:9009/fatima/. Waitress listens on all network interfaces with the command above. For anything exposed beyond a trusted home network, put it behind an HTTPS reverse proxy.

For deployments, APP_CONFIG can point to a YAML file elsewhere. SECRET_KEY, APP_USERNAME, and APP_PASSWORD environment variables optionally override the corresponding YAML values.
