Using Applications |
|
|
|
|
------------------ |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use such an application you have to create it in a separate file first, |
|
|
|
|
otherwise the :command:`flask` command won't be able to find it. Here's an |
|
|
|
|
example :file:`exampleapp.py` file that creates such an application:: |
|
|
|
|
To run such an application, you can use the :command:`flask` command:: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
from yourapplication import create_app |
|
|
|
|
app = create_app('/path/to/config.cfg') |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It can then be used with the :command:`flask` command:: |
|
|
|
|
export FLASK_APP=myapp |
|
|
|
|
flask run |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Flask will automatically detect the factory (``create_app`` or ``make_app``) |
|
|
|
|
in ``myapp``. You can also pass arguments to the factory like this:: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
export FLASK_APP=exampleapp |
|
|
|
|
export FLASK_APP="myapp:create_app('dev')" |
|
|
|
|
flask run |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Then the ``create_app`` factory in ``myapp`` is called with the string |
|
|
|
|
``'dev'`` as the argument. See :doc:`/cli` for more detail. |
