You can install Flask using pip if you haven’t already:
pip install Flask

Step 1: Setting Up Flask
app.py
This will be the main application file.
from flask import Flask, render_template, request, redirect, url_for
import sqlite3
app = Flask(__name__)
# Database setup
def init_db():
with sqlite3.connect("events.db") as conn:
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute('''
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS events (
id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
name TEXT NOT NULL,
description TEXT NOT NULL,
date TEXT NOT NULL,
location TEXT NOT NULL
)
''')
conn.commit()
@app.route('/')
def index():
conn = sqlite3.connect("events.db")
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM events")
events = cursor.fetchall()
conn.close()
return render_template('index.html', events=events)
@app.route('/event/<int:event_id>')
def event_details(event_id):
conn = sqlite3.connect("events.db")
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM events WHERE id = ?", (event_id,))
event = cursor.fetchone()
conn.close()
return render_template('event_details.html', event=event)
@app.route('/create_event', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def create_event():
if request.method == 'POST':
name = request.form['name']
description = request.form['description']
date = request.form['date']
location = request.form['location']
conn = sqlite3.connect("events.db")
cursor = conn.cursor()
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO events (name, description, date, location) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)",
(name, description, date, location))
conn.commit()
conn.close()
return redirect(url_for('index'))
return render_template('create_event.html')
if __name__ == '__main__':
init_db()
app.run(debug=True)
Step 2: Creating HTML Templates
templates/index.html
This will display all events.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ url_for('static', filename='style.css') }}">
<title>Event Management System</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Events</h1>
<a href="{{ url_for('create_event') }}">Create New Event</a>
<ul>
{% for event in events %}
<li>
<a href="{{ url_for('event_details', event_id=event[0]) }}">{{ event[1] }}</a> - {{ event[3] }} @ {{ event[4] }}
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</body>
</html>
templates/create_event.html
This allows users to create new events.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ url_for('static', filename='style.css') }}">
<title>Create Event</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Create New Event</h1>
<form method="POST">
<label>Name: <input type="text" name="name" required></label><br>
<label>Description: <textarea name="description" required></textarea></label><br>
<label>Date: <input type="date" name="date" required></label><br>
<label>Location: <input type="text" name="location" required></label><br>
<button type="submit">Create Event</button>
</form>
<a href="{{ url_for('index') }}">Back to Events</a>
</body>
</html>
templates/event_details.html
This shows the details of a single event.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ url_for('static', filename='style.css') }}">
<title>{{ event[1] }}</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>{{ event[1] }}</h1>
<p>{{ event[2] }}</p>
<p>Date: {{ event[3] }}</p>
<p>Location: {{ event[4] }}</p>
<a href="{{ url_for('index') }}">Back to Events</a>
</body>
</html>
Step 3: Add Some Styles
static/style.css
Add some basic styling.
body {
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
}
h1 {
color: #333;
}
ul {
list-style-type: none;
}
li {
margin: 10px 0;
}
Step 4: Run the Application
Now you can run your application:
bashCopy codepython app.py
Visit http://127.0.0.1:5000 in your web browser, and you should see the Event Management System in action!
Additional Features
This is a basic example. You might want to extend this system with features like:
- User authentication
- Event registration
- Notification system
- Advanced search functionality
