13
+ Step-by-Step
14
+ # 1. Clone the Repository
15
+
16
+ To get started, clone the repository to your local machine. This will allow you to access the code and run the app locally.
17
+
18
+
19
+ To clone the repository, you can run the following command (make sure to replace the URL with your repository’s URL if different):
20
+
21
+ `bash
22
+ git clone https://huggingface.co/Peeble/rbo-player cd rbo-player`
23
+
24
+ This will create a local copy of the project files.
25
+
26
+ # 2. Clone the Repository
27
+
28
+ This application uses Flask, which is a Python web framework. To run the app, you’ll need to install Flask.
29
+
30
+ It is recommended to create a virtual environment to isolate the dependencies. If you're not using a virtual environment, you can directly install Flask.
31
+
32
+ Run the following command to install Flask:
33
+
34
+ `bash
35
+ pip install Flask`
36
+
37
+ # 3. Set Up the Flask Application
38
+
39
+ The application’s logic is contained in the main.py file. Here’s what happens in the Flask app:
40
+
41
+ It has two routes: one for the home page (/) and another to handle the file upload (/upload).
42
+
43
+ The home page (/) renders the index.html form, where users can select and upload a file.
44
+
45
+ The /upload route handles the actual file upload, providing feedback to the user.
46
+
47
+ # 4. Create the HTML Form
48
+
49
+ The `index.html` file located in the templates folder contains the file upload form. This form includes a file input field where users can select a file, and a submit button to upload the file.
50
+
51
+ The form sends a POST request to the /upload route when the user selects a file and presses the "Upload" button.
52
+
53
+ # 5. Running the Flask Application
54
+
55
+ After setting up the application and installing the necessary dependencies, you can run the Flask application.
56
+
57
+ To run the application, execute:
58
+
59
+ `bash
60
+ python main.py`
61
+
62
+ Flask will start a local development server, usually accessible at http://127.0.0.1:5000/.
63
+
64
+ Once the server is running, open your browser and visit the URL to view the file upload form.
65
+
66
+ # 6. Uploading Files
67
+
68
+ On the homepage, you’ll see the file upload form. Select a file and click the “Upload” button. The file will be sent to the server where it will be handled by the /upload route.
69
+
70
+ After the file has been uploaded successfully, a success message will appear. If no file is selected or there is an issue, an error message will be displayed.
71
+
72
+ # 7. Customizing the Application
73
+
74
+ You can customize this app by adding additional functionality:
75
+
76
+ File Validation: Implement checks to ensure only certain types of files can be uploaded (e.g., images or PDFs).
77
+
78
+ File Storage: Save uploaded files to a specific folder on the server.
79
+
80
+ Styling: Customize the HTML form and layout using CSS or add JavaScript to enhance the user experience.

+ Conclusion
87
+
88
+ This tutorial provides you with a simple introduction to setting up and running a Flask app that handles file uploads. You can build on this foundation by adding more features and expanding the application as needed.
