# Car Rental Flask API

This is a small Flask application exposing CRUD endpoints for Car Reservations using SQLAlchemy and MySQL.
This web api works with python 3.13.3

Install dependencies:

```bash
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

Run the app:

```bash
flask --app app run
```

Run the app (on all interfaces):

```bash
flask --app app run --host=0.0.0.0
```

Run the app (on different port):

```bash
flask --app app run --port=12345
```

Database migrations (Flask-Migrate / Alembic)

After installing requirements, initialize and run migrations with the Flask CLI. Example:

```bash
flask db init        # only once
flask db migrate -m "initial"
flask db upgrade
```

This will create an `migrations/` folder and apply the schema to the configured database.
