"""
This is a tiny Flask app used for a couple of self-serve ad tracking
mechanisms. The URLs it provides are:

/fetch-trackers

    Given a list of Ad IDs, generate tracking hashes specific to the user's
    IP address. This must run outside the original request because the HTML
    may be cached by the CDN.

/click

    Promoted links have their URL replaced with a /click URL by the JS
    (after a call to /fetch-trackers). Redirect to the actual URL after logging
    the click. This must be run in a place whose logs are stored for traffic
    analysis.

For convenience, the script can compile itself into a Zip archive suitable for
use on Amazon Elastic Beanstalk (and possibly other systems).
