I am fairly new to python development and have no idea about flask, I have been assigned a project that is developed using flask. After working for couple of weeks i am now able to resolve all the dependencies and project is now compiled successfully. But when I run the project using flask run and then enter the url in browser it throws "flask.cli.NoAppException". How can I run my project I have tried like this.
- set FLASK_APP=init.py
- set FLASK_ENV=develpment
flask run
- Serving Flask app "init.py" (lazy loading)
- Environment: develpment
- Debug mode: on
- Restarting with stat
- Debugger is active!
- Debugger PIN: 202-733-235
- Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
here is the trackback
"FLASK_APP=myappnam:name to specify one.
Traceback (most recent call last)
File "C:\Program Files\Python38\Lib\site-packages\flask\_compat.py", line 39, in reraise
raise value
File "C:\Program Files\Python38\Lib\site-packages\flask\cli.py", line 97, in find_best_app
raise NoAppException(
flask.cli.NoAppException: Failed to find Flask application or factory in module "myappnam". Use "FLASK_APP=myappnam:name to specify one.
The debugger caught an exception in your WSGI application. You can now look at the traceback which led to the error.
To switch between the interactive traceback and the plaintext one, you can click on the "Traceback" headline. From the text traceback you can also create a paste of it. For code execution mouse-over the frame you want to debug and click on the console icon on the right side.
You can execute arbitrary Python code in the stack frames and there are some extra helpers available for introspection:
dump() shows all variables in the frame
dump(obj) dumps all that's known about the object
