Interoperability with uWSGI? about flask-excel HOT 8 CLOSED

Simply move line 5 outside, would make it work in both scenarios.

from project import app
import flask_excel as excel

excel.init_excel(app)

if __name__ == '__main__':    
    app.run(debug=False, use_debugger=False, host='127.0.0.1')

As to the best place, you may consider application factory: https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/1.1.x/tutorial/factory/ . I would imagine, you will have other configurations before the app runs.

it needs this initialisation function:

from flask-excel.

Hi @chfw,

I was running the initialization function in my main call as follows:

if __name__ == '__main__':
    excel.init_excel(app)
    app.run(debug=False, use_debugger=False, host='127.0.0.1')

from flask-excel.

here is an example using raw pyexcel instead of Flask-Excel nor custom implementation: http://docs.pyexcel.org/en/latest/webdev.html

from flask-excel.

@chfw Thank you!

from flask-excel.

if __name__ == '__main__':
    excel.init_excel(app)
    app.run(debug=False, use_debugger=False, host='127.0.0.1')

above is what you run as standalone server.

for your uwsgi app, what's your entry point?

I suspect 'None' came from this dummy function: https://github.com/pyexcel-webwares/pyexcel-webio/blob/master/pyexcel_webio/__init__.py#L307

So I think the initialization code were not present in your uwsgi app entry code.

from flask-excel.

uWSGI ini:

[uwsgi]
wsgi-file = run.py
callable = app

run.py:

from project import app
import flask_excel as excel

if __name__ == '__main__':
    excel.init_excel(app)
    app.run(debug=False, use_debugger=False, host='127.0.0.1')

The app item is created in project's init.

So I think the initialization code were not present in your uwsgi app entry code.

This sounds like the issue. Any recommendation for the best place to initialize?
