What is it?
Flask-HipPocket is a collection of convenience wrappers for the already intensely useful Flask_ web framework.
At its core are two classes:
Mapper
Enable centralized URL mapping based on LazyLoader from Flask's documentation_
HipPocket
A wrapper to enable running setup tasks on a Flask application at startup.
HipPocket itself also comes with two pre-defined tasks:
autoload
Load blueprints from a package and auto-register them with Flask
To add a new blueprint to an autoloading application simply drop in a sub-package and reload your server.
setup_errors
Add basic error responses for all HTTP error codes.
