    SimpleCamera pe college ID — naam photo match. Identity viva ki pehli gate.

    Pehle se haath mein, glare nahi. Examiner screenshot. Phir GitHub + portal ZIP run.

    Name GitHub/portal se mismatch red flag.

    Examiner 2 cheezein: simple desi line + tumhare project ki exact file.

    Pehle ID, GitHub, portal ZIP. Phir run: Redis + Flask + worker + beat + Vue. Feature demo: login, RBAC, cache hit/miss, Celery mail, search.

    Line pe ungli: input kahan, kaunsa check, query/cache/task, JSON/UI. Copilot band. Jo nahi kiya honestly bolo + kaise add karte.

    Project example: ID dikhao, bolo roll/name, phir screen share repo.

  6. 6
    Explain the Login API.
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleLogin flow pehle poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", token milne ke baad har API pe wohi proof dikhate ho.

    Authentication step: Vue form email + password JSON POST karta hai. Flask user dhoondhta hai, check_password_hash se prove karta hai ki tum genuine ho. Galat 401. Sahi pe JWT + role milta hai — yeh session/token hai.

    Vue localStorage (ya cookie) mein token rakhta hai, dashboard pe router.push. Aage ki har fetch header: Authorization: Bearer <token>. @jwt_required identity check (authentication). @roles_required('admin') permission check (authorization) — logged in ho, lekin allowed nahi to 403.

    Validation alag cheez hai: empty email, password 8+ — form sahi bhara hai ya nahi. Woh identity prove nahi karta.

    Logout = client token delete + login page. Server blacklist optional. Password response JSON mein kabhi mat bhejo.

    Example

    # Authentication
    @app.route('/api/login', methods=['POST'])
    def login():
        u = User.query.filter_by(email=data['email']).first()
        if not u or not check_password_hash(u.password, data['password']):
            return jsonify(msg='bad'), 401
        return jsonify(token=create_access_token(u.id), role=u.role)
    
    # baad ki APIs
    # Authorization: Bearer <token>
    if current_user.role != 'admin':
        abort(403)

    Project example: Login.vue POST /api/login → token LS → interceptor. Student token se admin route = 403. Empty form = validation, galat password = 401.

    Viva tipNetwork tab mein password body dikhega localhost pe — prod HTTPS. Response mein hash/password echo mat karo.

  7. 7
    Explain how data is stored in your application.
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    Simpledata() local diary. Store school notice board.

    Search query local. Logged-in user store. Persist: store + localStorage together.

    state vs data: similar concept, scope alag.

    Pehle 1-line definition, phir related MAD2 layer (Vue SFC / Flask route / models.py / tasks.py / Redis).

    4-line formula: input kahan se aaya, auth/validation kaunsa, DB ya cache ya Celery, kya return.

    Related mix mat karo — cache ≠ Celery, authentication ≠ authorization, v-if ≠ v-show, Beat ≠ Worker. Follow-up ke liye ek difference ready rakho.

    Example

    // local
    data() { return { q: '' } }
    // global
    this.$store.state.user

    Project example: Login.vue local form fields. this.$store.state.user Navbar.

    SimpleUngli rakhe to 4-line formula — panic ki jagah structure.

    1) File ka role: model / Flask route / Vue SFC / celery task / config
    2) Input kahan: JSON, params, token, props, $route
    3) Kya kaam: query, cache, validation, .delay()
    4) Output: jsonify, this.items, email, redirect

    Unknown keyword: import, decorator, if, commit — har ka reason. Bluff mat.

    Suggested flow1) Kaunsi layer?
    2) Input?
    3) DB/cache/task?
    4) Response/UI?

    Project example: Booking POST: jwt, seats check, commit, 201, Vue list push.

    Viva tipUnknown keyword: import, decorator, if, commit — har ka reason. Panic mat.

    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleDemo 5–7 min ki kahani: saari roles, koi milestone skip nahi, bolte-bolte dikhao.

    Examiner list tick karta hai. Crash ho to panic nahi — terminal error padho.

    Code tab kholna jab poochhein. Extra uncommitted features mat dikhana agar portal ZIP mein nahi.

    Suggested flow1) Register/login user
    2) Admin login — CRUD
    3) Approval/blacklist
    4) Booking/apply + edge case
    5) Search + charts
    6) CSV export / email job
    7) Logout

    Project example: Jo statement/parking/jobs/tickets hai uske user+admin journeys.

    Explain how the Admin Dashboard receives and displays data.
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleAdmin Vue → GET /api/admin/summary roles_required → counts + chart. How dashboard receives data.

    Cached maybe.

    Pehle 1-line definition, phir related MAD2 layer (Vue SFC / Flask route / models.py / tasks.py / Redis).

    4-line formula: input kahan se aaya, auth/validation kaunsa, DB ya cache ya Celery, kya return.

  11. 11
    Explain the Celery files.
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleTasks list, schedule, broker, trigger, verify MailHog/logs.

    Beat vs worker. User vs scheduled. App context.

    Celery Python ka distributed task queue — HTTP request ko 10s email/CSV ke liye mat rokna.

    Flow: Flask .delay() → Redis broker → Worker execute. Beat alag process hai (clock): crontab padhke due time pe queue mein daalta hai. Beat khud mail nahi bhejta; Worker haath hai.

    MAD2 typical: daily reminder (Beat), monthly report (Beat), user Export CSV (button, Beat nahi). JS async/await browser event loop hai, Celery server-side process — mix mat karo.

    Demo: tin terminals — redis-server, celery worker, celery beat — plus Flask. MailHog :8025 inbox. Result backend se task SUCCESS poll optional.

    Project example: Three tasks. Commands README.

  12. 12
    What are asynchronous (background) jobs?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleSync line pe ruk jao (2+2). Async I/O pe wait karte hue baaki kaam chalte (fetch, Celery).

    JS async ≠ Celery async jobs. Context se bolo.

    Why async jobs: slow/scheduled/bulk off request thread.

    Pehle 1-line definition, phir related MAD2 layer (Vue SFC / Flask route / models.py / tasks.py / Redis).

    4-line formula: input kahan se aaya, auth/validation kaunsa, DB ya cache ya Celery, kya return.

    Related mix mat karo — cache ≠ Celery, authentication ≠ authorization, v-if ≠ v-show, Beat ≠ Worker. Follow-up ke liye ek difference ready rakho.

    Project example: Login sync hash check fast. Email Celery async. Vue fetch async.

    Where have you implemented JWT in the frontend?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    Simplelogin.vue save. interceptor. guards. LS key. Show JWT frontend.

    Where implemented JWT frontend.

    Authentication poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", Authorization poochta hai "tujhe yeh kaam karne ki permission hai?"

    Authentication: login. Username + password hash check. Success pe JWT/session. Galat credentials = 401.
    Authorization: uske baad role. Admin hi venue/lot delete kare, student nahi = 403 (logged in ho, allowed nahi).

    MAD2: POST /api/login = authentication. @jwt_required identity. @roles_required('admin') ya Vue v-if="isAdmin" = authorization. Frontend hide sirf UX — asli deny backend pe.

    Validation alag: form sahi bhara (email format, age 18+). Woh identity prove nahi karta. Password store hash (Werkzeug), JWT payload padha ja sakta hai isliye secret mat daalo.

    Project example: api.js header.

  14. 14
    What is the purpose of the JWT Secret Key?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleHMAC key. Private. Purpose: signature, not encrypt payload.

    algo none attack libraries reject.

    Authentication poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", Authorization poochta hai "tujhe yeh kaam karne ki permission hai?"

    Authentication: login. Username + password hash check. Success pe JWT/session. Galat credentials = 401.
    Authorization: uske baad role. Admin hi venue/lot delete kare, student nahi = 403 (logged in ho, allowed nahi).

    MAD2: POST /api/login = authentication. @jwt_required identity. @roles_required('admin') ya Vue v-if="isAdmin" = authorization. Frontend hide sirf UX — asli deny backend pe.

  15. 15
    Difference between JWT Secret Key and Flask Secret Key.
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleJWT_SECRET sign/verify. Flask SECRET_KEY sessions/CSRF. Alag rakhna better.

    Leak = forge tokens. env var. Rotate.

    Authentication poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", Authorization poochta hai "tujhe yeh kaam karne ki permission hai?"

    Authentication: login. Username + password hash check. Success pe JWT/session. Galat credentials = 401.
    Authorization: uske baad role. Admin hi venue/lot delete kare, student nahi = 403 (logged in ho, allowed nahi).

    MAD2: POST /api/login = authentication. @jwt_required identity. @roles_required('admin') ya Vue v-if="isAdmin" = authorization. Frontend hide sirf UX — asli deny backend pe.

    Project example: .env not git. config.py os.environ.

  16. 16
    Authentication vs Authorization.
    Times asked 10
    Official solution

    SimpleAuthentication poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", Authorization poochta hai "tujhe yeh kaam karne ki permission hai?"

    Authentication: login. Username + password check karke prove karte ho ki tum genuine user ho. Success pe session/token milta hai.
    Authorization: uske baad role check. Admin hi parking lot / venue / drive delete kar sakta hai, normal user nahi.

    MAD2 mein yeh alag layers hain: login API = authentication (JWT milta hai). @roles_required('admin') ya Vue v-if="isAdmin" = authorization.

    Validation alag cheez hai (form sahi bhara hai ya nahi, jaise age 18+). Authentication identity hai, authorization permission, validation input quality.

    Example

    # Authentication
    if user and check_password_hash(user.password, form_password):
        token = create_access_token(identity=user.id)
    
    # Authorization
    if current_user.role != 'admin':
        abort(403)  # logged in ho, lekin allowed nahi

    Project example: Student login = authentication. Student admin dashboard nahi khol sakta = authorization. Frontend button hide sirf UX hai — asli check backend pe hona chahiye.

    Viva tip401 = not logged in / bad token. 403 = logged in, role galat. Examiner yeh difference bahut poochta hai.

    SFC: template + script + style ek .vue file. Parent-child exam favourite: list parent, row child :item + @delete.

    Example

    export default {
      setup() {

    Difference between v-model and v-bind.
    Times asked 4
    Official solution

    SimpleBind = ek tarfa poster lagana. Model = form jo typed text wapas data mein likhe.

    Display/image/disabled → v-bind. Input/textarea/select → v-model.
    Dono mix: <input v-bind:placeholder="hint" v-model="q">.

    Directives Vue ke special attributes hain — HTML ko superpower: v-if/v-show, v-for, v-bind (:), v-on (@), v-model.

    v-if DOM se hataata/jodta. v-show sirf CSS display. Rare/permission: v-if. Bar-bar toggle: v-show. v-model two-way form. v-bind one-way JS→attribute.

    :key v-for pe zaroori warna Vue galat reuse. v-html XSS. Secret UI ke liye sirf v-if kaafi nahi — API 403 bhi.

    Official solution

    SimpleRedis fridge pe sticky note hai — poori kitchen (database) kholne ki zarurat nahi.

    Redis in-memory key-value store hai. Data RAM mein rehta hai, isliye disk wale SQLite/Postgres se kai guna tez.

    MAD2 mein Redis do kaam karta hai:
    1) Cache — same venue/show/dashboard JSON baar-baar DB se mat nikaalo.
    2) Celery message broker — Flask task queue mein daalta hai, worker uthata hai.

    Source of truth database hi hai. Redis band ho to cache miss ho jaata hai aur Celery queue ruk sakti hai. Crash pe cache gayab ho sakta hai — isliye important data sirf Redis mein mat rakho.

    Example

    import redis
    r = redis.Redis(host='localhost', port=6379, db=0)
    r.set('venues', json.dumps(data), ex=30)
    print(r.get('venues'))

    Project example: GET /api/venues pehle Redis dekho. Miss pe SQLAlchemy query, phir SET with timeout. Celery worker Redis list se daily reminder uthata hai.

    Flow: cache.get(key) → hit pe return, miss pe SQLAlchemy + SET with timeout. Admin write ke baad cache.delete, warna stale list.

    Source of truth database hi hai. Redis crash/band = cache miss (app chalni chahiye) + queue ruk sakti hai. Important bookings sirf Redis mein mat rakho.

    SimpleCache = pehli baar hisaab karke copy rakh lo, doosri baar copy dikha do.

    Baar-baar same expensive kaam (DB query, counting bookings) mat karo. Result Redis jaise store mein timeout ke saath rakh do.

    Cache hit: key mil gayi, DB skip. Cache miss: DB se lao, SET karo, return karo.

    Tradeoff: speed vs stale data. Admin naya venue add kare aur cache 50s ka ho to user purani list dekh sakta hai — isliye write pe invalidation zaroori hai.

    Browser cache, Flask-Caching, Redis alag layers hain. MAD2 examiner Redis + @cache.cached code dekhta hai.

    What is Cascading (ON DELETE CASCADE)?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleCASCADE = parent gaya to bacche bhi. Restrict = pehle bacche sambhalo.

    ON DELETE CASCADE SQL. SQLAlchemy cascade='all, delete-orphan' collection se orphans.
    Opposite auto nahi — child delete se parent nahi marata.

    Venue delete: bookings restrict (safer viva) ya cascade+cancel policy. Examiner design poochta hai.

    ON UPDATE CASCADE PK change — rare. SET NULL, RESTRICT bhi options.

    Example

    shows = db.relationship('Show', cascade='all, delete-orphan', back_populates='venue')

    Project example: Show belongs Venue delete-orphan. Booking venue pe restrict — 'reassign first'.

    Viva tipVenue delete pe bookings: restrict (mat delete) ya cascade+refund policy. Examiner design poochta hai. Cascade UPDATE bhi hota hai (PK change) — rare.

    Authorization: uske baad role. Admin hi venue/lot delete kare, student nahi = 403 (logged in ho, allowed nahi).

    MAD2: POST /api/login = authentication. @jwt_required identity. @roles_required('admin') ya Vue v-if="isAdmin" = authorization. Frontend hide sirf UX — asli deny backend pe.

    Validation alag: form sahi bhara (email format, age 18+). Woh identity prove nahi karta. Password store hash (Werkzeug), JWT payload padha ja sakta hai isliye secret mat daalo.

    Times asked 21
    Official solution

    SimpleRedis fridge pe sticky note hai — poori kitchen (database) kholne ki zarurat nahi.

    Redis in-memory key-value store hai. Data RAM mein rehta hai, isliye disk wale SQLite/Postgres se kai guna tez.

    MAD2 mein Redis do kaam karta hai:
    1) Cache — same venue/show/dashboard JSON baar-baar DB se mat nikaalo.
    2) Celery message broker — Flask task queue mein daalta hai, worker uthata hai.

    Source of truth database hi hai. Redis band ho to cache miss ho jaata hai aur Celery queue ruk sakti hai. Crash pe cache gayab ho sakta hai — isliye important data sirf Redis mein mat rakho.

    Example

    import redis
    r = redis.Redis(host='localhost', port=6379, db=0)
    r.set('venues', json.dumps(data), ex=30)
    print(r.get('venues'))

    Project example: GET /api/venues pehle Redis dekho. Miss pe SQLAlchemy query, phir SET with timeout. Celery worker Redis list se daily reminder uthata hai.

    MAD2 mein Redis do kaam: (1) cache — same venues/shows/dashboard JSON baar-baar DB se nahi (2) Celery broker — Flask task queue mein daalta hai, worker uthata hai.

    Flow: cache.get(key) → hit pe return, miss pe SQLAlchemy + SET with timeout. Admin write ke baad cache.delete, warna stale list.

    Source of truth database hi hai. Redis crash/band = cache miss (app chalni chahiye) + queue ruk sakti hai. Important bookings sirf Redis mein mat rakho.

    Validation alag cheez hai: empty email, password 8+ — form sahi bhara hai ya nahi. Woh identity prove nahi karta.

    Logout = client token delete + login page. Server blacklist optional. Password response JSON mein kabhi mat bhejo.

    Example

    # Authentication
    @app.route('/api/login', methods=['POST'])
    def login():
        u = User.query.filter_by(email=data['email']).first()
        if not u or not check_password_hash(u.password, data['password']):
            return jsonify(msg='bad'), 401
        return jsonify(token=create_access_token(u.id), role=u.role)
    
    # baad ki APIs
    # Authorization: Bearer <token>
    if current_user.role != 'admin':
        abort(403)

    Project example: Login.vue POST /api/login → token LS → interceptor. Student token se admin route = 403. Empty form = validation, galat password = 401.

    Why is Redis faster than a normal database?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleFast kyunki RAM + simple commands, joins nahi.

    Disk seek milliseconds, RAM microseconds. Redis single-threaded lekin har op chhoti.

    Compare: SQLite file lock writes pe. Redis in-memory SET. Persistence RDB/AOF extra, default viva mein RAM.

    Redis in-memory key-value store hai — fridge pe sticky note, poori kitchen (SQL database) har baar mat kholo.

    MAD2 mein Redis do kaam: (1) cache — same venues/shows/dashboard JSON baar-baar DB se nahi (2) Celery broker — Flask task queue mein daalta hai, worker uthata hai.

    Flow: cache.get(key) → hit pe return, miss pe SQLAlchemy + SET with timeout. Admin write ke baad cache.delete, warna stale list.

    Source of truth database hi hai. Redis crash/band = cache miss (app chalni chahiye) + queue ruk sakti hai. Important bookings sirf Redis mein mat rakho.

    Alag: Redis ≠ Memcached (Celery broker nahi). Redis ≠ localStorage (woh browser). redis-cli ping → PONG viva proof.

    Project example: Same JSON cache vs query.join — Network timing dikhao.

    Why do we use Celery?
    Times asked 2
    Official solution

    SimpleIsliye ki user wait na kare, retry mil jaaye, 6pm automatic ho jaaye.

    Slow work (mail, CSV, PDF) request se alag. Schedule crontab. Scale = aur workers.

    JS async/await alag cheez hai (browser event loop). Celery server-side process.

    Celery Python ka distributed task queue — HTTP request ko 10s email/CSV ke liye mat rokna.

    Flow: Flask .delay() → Redis broker → Worker execute. Beat alag process hai (clock): crontab padhke due time pe queue mein daalta hai. Beat khud mail nahi bhejta; Worker haath hai.

    MAD2 typical: daily reminder (Beat), monthly report (Beat), user Export CSV (button, Beat nahi). JS async/await browser event loop hai, Celery server-side process — mix mat karo.

    Demo: tin terminals — redis-server, celery worker, celery beat — plus Flask. MailHog :8025 inbox. Result backend se task SUCCESS poll optional.

    Project example: Reminder 6pm, monthly 1st, export button. Teen alag tasks.py functions.

    What are Vue lifecycle hooks?
    Times asked 11
    Official solution

    SimpleLifecycle = component ki zindagi ke stages. API call tab jab DOM ready ho — mounted.

    created: instance bani, this data, DOM nahi. mounted/onMounted: page pe aa gaya — fetch, Chart.js, setInterval.
    updated: data change ke baad. unmounted: cleanup (clearInterval) warna memory leak.

    Dashboards onMounted isliye: canvas/API tab valid. created mein $el nahi.

    Composition: onMounted(() => {}) setup ke andar.

    Example

    export default {
      async mounted() {
        const r = await fetch('/api/venues')
        this.venues = await r.json()
      }
    }

    Difference between v-if and v-show.
    Times asked 10
    Official solution

    Simplev-if ghar se nikaal deta hai (DOM se). v-show sirf light band karta hai (display:none).

    v-if false → element exist hi nahi — costly create/destroy, lekin secret HTML DOM mein nahi.
    v-show → hamesha DOM, CSS hide, toggle tez.

    Rare / permission UI: v-if (admin panel). Dropdown bar-bar: v-show.

    : shorthand v-bind ka, v-if ka nahi.

    Example

    <div v-if="isAdmin">Admin panel</div>
    <div v-show="open">Dropdown</div>

    Project example: Admin links v-if="role==='admin'". FAQ accordion v-show="open".

    Don't forget key.

    Directives Vue ke special attributes hain — HTML ko superpower: v-if/v-show, v-for, v-bind (:), v-on (@), v-model.

    v-if DOM se hataata/jodta. v-show sirf CSS display. Rare/permission: v-if. Bar-bar toggle: v-show. v-model two-way form. v-bind one-way JS→attribute.

    :key v-for pe zaroori warna Vue galat reuse. v-html XSS. Secret UI ke liye sirf v-if kaafi nahi — API 403 bhi.

    MAD2 typical jobs: daily reminder mail, monthly HTML report, user-triggered CSV export.

    Web request 200ms hona chahiye. 10,000 emails request thread mein = timeout. Worker alag CPU pe kaam kare.

    Redis broker chahiye. Beat alag process schedule ke liye.

    Example

    Official solution

    SimpleReminder emails, monthly report, CSV export — jo code mein hai.

    User vs scheduled label.

    Celery Python ka distributed task queue — HTTP request ko 10s email/CSV ke liye mat rokna.

    Flow: Flask .delay() → Redis broker → Worker execute. Beat alag process hai (clock): crontab padhke due time pe queue mein daalta hai. Beat khud mail nahi bhejta; Worker haath hai.

    MAD2 typical: daily reminder (Beat), monthly report (Beat), user Export CSV (button, Beat nahi). JS async/await browser event loop hai, Celery server-side process — mix mat karo.

    Demo: tin terminals — redis-server, celery worker, celery beat — plus Flask. MailHog :8025 inbox. Result backend se task SUCCESS poll optional.

    What is caching?
    Times asked 23
    Official solution

    SimpleCache = pehli baar hisaab karke copy rakh lo, doosri baar copy dikha do.

    Baar-baar same expensive kaam (DB query, counting bookings) mat karo. Result Redis jaise store mein timeout ke saath rakh do.

    Cache hit: key mil gayi, DB skip. Cache miss: DB se lao, SET karo, return karo.

    Tradeoff: speed vs stale data. Admin naya venue add kare aur cache 50s ka ho to user purani list dekh sakta hai — isliye write pe invalidation zaroori hai.

    Browser cache, Flask-Caching, Redis alag layers hain. MAD2 examiner Redis + @cache.cached code dekhta hai.

    Example

    @cache.cached(timeout=50, query_string=True)
    @app.route('/api/shows')
    def shows():
        return jsonify([s.serialize() for s in Show.query.all()])

    Official solution

    SimpleCache isliye taaki 100 users same dashboard pe DB ko 100 baar na maror dein.

    Problem: repeated reads, slow page, extra load. Cache seconds ke liye snapshot deta hai.

    Nahi use karna: har second badalne wala live stock, user-private secret data bina soch ke (key mein user_id hona chahiye).

    Memoization caching ka subset hai (function args). HTTP 304 / browser cache alag layer.

    Redis in-memory key-value store hai — fridge pe sticky note, poori kitchen (SQL database) har baar mat kholo.

    MAD2 mein Redis do kaam: (1) cache — same venues/shows/dashboard JSON baar-baar DB se nahi (2) Celery broker — Flask task queue mein daalta hai, worker uthata hai.

    Flow: cache.get(key) → hit pe return, miss pe SQLAlchemy + SET with timeout. Admin write ke baad cache.delete, warna stale list.

    Source of truth database hi hai. Redis crash/band = cache miss (app chalni chahiye) + queue ruk sakti hai. Important bookings sirf Redis mein mat rakho.

    Alag: Redis ≠ Memcached (Celery broker nahi). Redis ≠ localStorage (woh browser). redis-cli ping → PONG viva proof.

    SimpleRedis fridge pe sticky note hai — poori kitchen (database) kholne ki zarurat nahi.

    Redis in-memory key-value store hai. Data RAM mein rehta hai, isliye disk wale SQLite/Postgres se kai guna tez.

    MAD2 mein Redis do kaam karta hai:
    1) Cache — same venue/show/dashboard JSON baar-baar DB se mat nikaalo.
    2) Celery message broker — Flask task queue mein daalta hai, worker uthata hai.

    Source of truth database hi hai. Redis band ho to cache miss ho jaata hai aur Celery queue ruk sakti hai. Crash pe cache gayab ho sakta hai — isliye important data sirf Redis mein mat rakho.

    Example

    import redis
    r = redis.Redis(host='localhost', port=6379, db=0)
    r.set('venues', json.dumps(data), ex=30)

    What are the different Vue directives?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleDirectives Vue ke special attributes — HTML ko superpower.

    v-if/else/show, v-for, v-bind (:), v-on (@), v-model, v-html (XSS), v-cloak, v-slot.

    :src = v-bind:src. @click = v-on:click.

    Custom directives bhi (v-focus) — course basics kaafi.

    Example

    <p v-if="ok">Yes</p>
    <li v-for="u in users" :key="u.id">{{ u.name }}</li>
    <input v-model="email">
    <img :src="url">

    What is the difference between v-if and v-show?
    Times asked 6
    Official solution

    Simplev-if ghar se nikaal deta hai (DOM se). v-show sirf light band karta hai (display:none).

    v-if false → element exist hi nahi — costly create/destroy, lekin secret HTML DOM mein nahi.
    v-show → hamesha DOM, CSS hide, toggle tez.

    Rare / permission UI: v-if (admin panel). Dropdown bar-bar: v-show.

    : shorthand v-bind ka, v-if ka nahi.

    Example

    <div v-if="isAdmin">Admin panel</div>
    <div v-show="open">Dropdown</div>

    Project example: Admin links v-if="role==='admin'". FAQ accordion v-show="open".

    Viva tipSecurity ke liye sirf v-if kaafi nahi — API 403 bhi chahiye.

    Why are @token_required and @role_required decorators used?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleEvery protected route guaranteed. Readable. Forget if manual if.

    Why token_required and role_required.

    Authentication poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", Authorization poochta hai "tujhe yeh kaam karne ki permission hai?"

    Authentication: login. Username + password hash check. Success pe JWT/session. Galat credentials = 401.
    Authorization: uske baad role. Admin hi venue/lot delete kare, student nahi = 403 (logged in ho, allowed nahi).

    MAD2: POST /api/login = authentication. @jwt_required identity. @roles_required('admin') ya Vue v-if="isAdmin" = authorization. Frontend hide sirf UX — asli deny backend pe.

    Validation alag: form sahi bhara (email format, age 18+). Woh identity prove nahi karta. Password store hash (Werkzeug), JWT payload padha ja sakta hai isliye secret mat daalo.

    Project example: Can't skip check.

    MAD2 typical jobs: daily reminder mail, monthly HTML report, user-triggered CSV export.

    Web request 200ms hona chahiye. 10,000 emails request thread mein = timeout. Worker alag CPU pe kaam kare.

    Redis broker chahiye. Beat alag process schedule ke liye.

    SimpleRedis fridge pe sticky note hai — poori kitchen (database) kholne ki zarurat nahi.

    Redis in-memory key-value store hai. Data RAM mein rehta hai, isliye disk wale SQLite/Postgres se kai guna tez.

    MAD2 mein Redis do kaam karta hai:
    1) Cache — same venue/show/dashboard JSON baar-baar DB se mat nikaalo.
    2) Celery message broker — Flask task queue mein daalta hai, worker uthata hai.

    Source of truth database hi hai. Redis band ho to cache miss ho jaata hai aur Celery queue ruk sakti hai. Crash pe cache gayab ho sakta hai — isliye important data sirf Redis mein mat rakho.

    Example

    import redis
    r = redis.Redis(host='localhost', port=6379, db=0)
    r.set('venues', json.dumps(data), ex=30)
    print(r.get('venues'))

    Project example: GET /api/venues pehle Redis dekho. Miss pe SQLAlchemy query, phir SET with timeout. Celery worker Redis list se daily reminder uthata hai.

    Viva tipCache ke liye db=1, broker ke liye db=0 rakhna smart hai taaki keys mix na hon. Viva mein redis-cli ping → PONG dikhana strong hai.

    SimpleCache = pehli baar hisaab karke copy rakh lo, doosri baar copy dikha do.

    Baar-baar same expensive kaam (DB query, counting bookings) mat karo. Result Redis jaise store mein timeout ke saath rakh do.

    Cache hit: key mil gayi, DB skip. Cache miss: DB se lao, SET karo, return karo.

    Tradeoff: speed vs stale data. Admin naya venue add kare aur cache 50s ka ho to user purani list dekh sakta hai — isliye write pe invalidation zaroori hai.

    Browser cache, Flask-Caching, Redis alag layers hain. MAD2 examiner Redis + @cache.cached code dekhta hai.

    Difference between Authentication and Authorization.

    Official solution

    SimpleAuthentication poochta hai "tu kaun hai?", Authorization poochta hai "tujhe yeh kaam karne ki permission hai?"

    Authentication: login. Username + password check karke prove karte ho ki tum genuine user ho. Success pe session/token milta hai.
    Authorization: uske baad role check. Admin hi parking lot / venue / drive delete kar sakta hai, normal user nahi.

    MAD2 mein yeh alag layers hain: login API = authentication (JWT milta hai). @roles_required('admin') ya Vue v-if="isAdmin" = authorization.

    Validation alag cheez hai (form sahi bhara hai ya nahi, jaise age 18+). Authentication identity hai, authorization permission, validation input quality.

    Example

    # Authentication
    if user and check_password_hash(user.password, form_password):
        token = create_access_token(identity=user.id)
    
    # Authorization
    if current_user.role != 'admin':
        abort(403)  # logged in ho, lekin allowed nahi

    Project example: Student login = authentication. Student admin dashboard nahi khol sakta = authorization. Frontend button hide sirf UX hai — asli check backend pe hona chahiye.

    Viva tip401 = not logged in / bad token. 403 = logged in, role galat. Examiner yeh difference bahut poochta hai.

    Why did you use Vue CDN?

    Official solution

    SimpleCDN isliye simple deploy, kabhi Node nahi chahiye viva machine pe.

    Show <script src=vue> index.html. Tradeoff: SFC nahi, ek bada JS file.

    Agar CLI use kiya to yeh answer ulta: SFC + build isliye CLI.

    SPA = ek HTML, Vue Router se views, full reload nahi. MPA = MAD1 Jinja har URL naya HTML.

    Vue Router: routes array, router-view, router-link, meta.auth + beforeEach guard. Dynamic /venues/:id$route.params.id.

    Vite/CLI SFC + npm build dist/. CDN script tag, no SFC. Jo tumne use kiya wahi justify. Flask send_from_directory('dist') production pattern.

    Project example: index.html bottom script tags Vue + vue-router + app.js.
