Chalice Trivia

This is a trivia application powered by chalice. You can find a deployed version of the application here. You can also watch the following EuroPython talk I gave about Chalice where I use this application as the main talking point. To learn more about Chalice, please refer to its documentation.

Repository Structure

The repository is broken into three components:

• Chalice application: This consists of the following components that run the backend of the application:
  • app.py: Contains core logic of application
  • requirements.txt: Declares dependencies for application
  • chalicelib directory: Contains helper modules for the application
  • .chalice directory: Contains various files for configuring the application.
• ui directory: This is the source code that powers the frontend of the application. The frontend is a single page web application that utilizes React.
• scripts directory: Contains scripts useful for managing the application. Current scripts include:
  • add-questions: A script that adds questions to the DynamoDB table
  • delete-users: A script for deleting all users from the Cognito user pool. Note: This script needs to be generalized more for general consumption. It only works right now on the deployed application linked in the beginning of the README.
