nfs-dirmaker

Creates a directory into a NFS server exported file system. We use it to create the users' home directory before trying the mount via autofs.

• Python 3.8+
• Flask 2.1
• gunicorn

Build the environment

python3 -m venv venv
. venv/bin/activate
pip install Flask

Test the service

source ./venv/bin/activate
export FLASK_APP=dircreate
export FLASK_ENV=development
flask run

Use gunincorn when in production
