For Docker Support:
https://hub.docker.com/r/whahn1983/pycashflow
docker pull whahn1983/pycashflow:latest

For proper date management for the calculations, consider mounting the correct local time with
-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
Also consider mounting the Flask Migrate folder to save your database migration files with
-v /mnt/migrations:/app/migrations
For manual Installation:
To install, clone the git repo onto your server. Leverage a WSGI server, like waitress or gunicorn, to run the flask application. Optionally leverage a reverse proxy with Apache or Nginx to the WSGI server. To support automatic database migrations, run flask-migrate commands to generate an initial version configuration. For the automatic balance updates with email, set up cron to execute getemail.py on a regular schedule. Ensure your email account is properly configured under Profile in the flask application.
To update, pull the latest version from git. If database changes were necessary, leverage flask-migrate commands to migrate and update your database. Restart the service.
