Event Management System Project In Flask

Creating an advanced-level Event Management System using Flask and Bootstrap 5 involves designing a robust database structure, implementing Flask routes, and creating dynamic web pages. Below is a detailed implementation:

1. Database Structure

The database will include tables for users, events, attendees, event categories, and event organizers. We'll use SQLAlchemy for ORM.

Database Models


from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy
from datetime import datetime
db = SQLAlchemy()
class User(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    username = db.Column(db.String(100), unique=True, nullable=False)
    email = db.Column(db.String(120), unique=True, nullable=False)
    password_hash = db.Column(db.String(200), nullable=False)
    role = db.Column(db.String(50), nullable=False)  # Admin, Organizer, Attendee
    events_organized = db.relationship('Event', backref='organizer', lazy=True)
    attendances = db.relationship('Attendance', backref='attendee', lazy=True)
class EventCategory(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    name = db.Column(db.String(100), nullable=False)
    events = db.relationship('Event', backref='category', lazy=True)
class Event(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    name = db.Column(db.String(200), nullable=False)
    description = db.Column(db.Text, nullable=False)
    date = db.Column(db.DateTime, nullable=False)
    location = db.Column(db.String(200), nullable=False)
    capacity = db.Column(db.Integer, nullable=False)
    organizer_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'), nullable=False)
    category_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('event_category.id'), nullable=False)
    attendees = db.relationship('Attendance', backref='event', lazy=True)
class Attendance(db.Model):
    id = db.Column(db.Integer, primary_key=True)
    user_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('user.id'), nullable=False)
    event_id = db.Column(db.Integer, db.ForeignKey('event.id'), nullable=False)
    registration_date = db.Column(db.DateTime, default=datetime.utcnow)

Flask Application Structure

Here’s the directory structure for the project:


advanced_event_management/
│
├── app/
│   ├── __init__.py                # Initialize the Flask app and database
│   ├── models.py                  # Database models (User , Event, Attendance, EventCategory)

└── run.py                          # Entry point to run the application

2. Flask Application Setup

Install required packages:


pip install flask flask-sqlalchemy flask-wtf flask-login flask-bootstrap5

Create the Flask app:


from flask import Flask, render_template, redirect, url_for, request, flash
from flask_sqlalchemy import SQLAlchemy
from flask_bootstrap5 import Bootstrap
from flask_login import LoginManager, UserMixin, login_user, login_required, logout_user, current_user
from werkzeug.security import generate_password_hash, check_password_hash
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['SECRET_KEY'] = 'supersecretkey'
app.config['SQLALCHEMY_DATABASE_URI'] = 'sqlite:///event_management.db'
app.config['SQLALCHEMY_TRACK_MODIFICATIONS'] = False
db = SQLAlchemy(app)
Bootstrap(app)
login_manager = LoginManager(app)
login_manager.login_view = 'login'
@login_manager.user_loader
def load_user(user_id):
    return User.query.get(int(user_id))
# Create database tables
with app.app_context():
    db.create_all()

3. Flask Routes and Views

Implement routes for authentication, event management, and attendee registration.


@app.route('/')
def index():
    events = Event.query.all()
    return render_template('index.html', events=events)
@app.route('/login', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def login():
    if request.method == 'POST':
        username = request.form['username']
        password = request.form['password']
        user = User.query.filter_by(username=username).first()
        if user and check_password_hash(user.password_hash, password):
            login_user(user)
            return redirect(url_for('index'))
        flash('Invalid username or password')
    return render_template('login.html')
@app.route('/logout')
@login_required
def logout():
    logout_user()
    return redirect(url_for('index'))
@app.route('/register', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def register():
    if request.method == 'POST':
        username = request.form['username']
        email = request.form['email']
        password = request.form['password']
        role = request.form['role']
        hashed_password = generate_password_hash(password)
        new_user = User(username=username, email=email, password_hash=hashed_password, role=role)
        db.session.add(new_user)
        db.session.commit()
        flash('Registration successful! You can now log in.')
        return redirect(url_for('login'))
    return render_template('register.html')
@app.route('/events')
def events():
    events = Event.query.all()
    return render_template('events.html', events=events)
@app.route('/event/<int:id>', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def event_detail(id):
    event = Event.query.get_or_404(id)
    if request.method == 'POST':
        if current_user.is_authenticated:
            if len(event.attendees) < event.capacity:
                new_attendance = Attendance(user_id=current_user.id, event_id=event.id)
                db.session.add(new_attendance)
                db.session.commit()
                flash('You have successfully registered for the event!')
            else:
                flash('Event is fully booked.')
            return redirect(url_for('event_detail', id=event.id))
        else:
            flash('You need to log in to register for events.')
            return redirect(url_for('login'))
    return render_template('event_detail.html', event=event)
@app.route('/organizer/events')
@login_required
def organizer_events():
    if current_user.role != 'Organizer':
        flash('Access denied.')
        return redirect(url_for('index'))
    events = Event.query.filter_by(organizer_id=current_user.id).all()
    return render_template('organizer_events.html', events=events)
@app.route('/organizer/event/new', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
@login_required
def new_event():
    if current_user.role != 'Organizer':
        flash('Access denied.')
        return redirect(url_for('index'))
    if request.method == 'POST':
        name = request.form['name']
        description = request.form['description']
        date = request.form['date']
        location = request.form['location']
        capacity = request.form['capacity']
        category_id = request.form['category']
        new_event = Event(name=name, description=description, date=date, location=location, capacity=capacity, organizer_id=current_user.id, category_id=category_id)
        db.session.add(new_event)
        db.session.commit()
        flash('Event created successfully!')
        return redirect(url_for('organizer_events'))
    categories = EventCategory.query.all()
    return render_template('new_event.html', categories=categories)
if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

    category = SelectField('Category', coerce=int)
    submit = SubmitField('Add Expense')
class CategoryForm(FlaskForm):

7. Static Files

static/css/styles.css


body {
    background-color: #f8f9fa;

.navbar {
    margin-bottom: 20px;
}
.table {

// Custom JavaScript can be added here

9. Running the Application

To run the application, ensure you have the required packages installed as specified in requirements.txt, then execute:


python run.py

This structure and code provide a comprehensive foundation for an advanced Expense Tracker App using Flask and Bootstrap 5, allowing for user authentication, expense management, and category organization.
