Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Closes after a period of inactivity, or when you send !close.

[weary sparrow]

Should I open them, or?

Is there something else I should do to activate the flask

@spice sleet Need a help, sorry to bother

[vital trout]

Create a Basic Flask Application

[grand umbra]

Everything inside __pycache__ subdirectories has been made by Python as it loads modules. Ignore them - they're cached compiled bytecode of the associated module so that Python doesn't need to compile it a second time unless the source file changes.

[vital trout]

Heres the code

from flask import Flask

app = Flask(name)

@app.route('/')
def home():
return 'Hello, World!'

if name == 'main':
app.run(debug=True)

Hey @vital trout!

It looks like you're trying to paste code into this channel.

Discord has support for Markdown, which allows you to post code with full syntax highlighting. Please use these whenever you paste code, as this helps improve the legibility and makes it easier for us to help you.

To do this, use the following method:
```py
print('Hello, world!')
```

This will result in the following:

print('Hello, world!')```
You can **edit your original message** to correct your code block.

[vital trout]

And run it

Open a web browser and go to http://127.0.0.1:5000/. You should see the message "Hello, World!" displayed on the page. This confirms that your Flask application is working.

[weary sparrow]

In a new python, right?

[vital trout]

Yes

Name it

app.py

[weary sparrow]

Alright let me try

[weary sparrow]

Like open it in cmd?

[vital trout]

I'm wrong sorry

[weary sparrow]

Dw

[vital trout]

Its all good

Flask is installed

[weary sparrow]

Okay, then how do I like start using it?

Like..Insert it into python

[vital trout]

Create a Flask Application

Like this one

from flask import Flask

app = Flask(name)

@app.route('/')
def home():
return "Hello, World!"

if name == 'main':
app.run(debug=True)

[vital trout]

basic code

[weary sparrow]

I have to run the code again?

[vital trout]

No

Like these are the steps

You need to have your Flask file

[weary sparrow]

I certainly do

Yeah I have it

[vital trout]

Then run it to see if theres no problem

And then

Organize your project

myproject/
app/
init.py
routes.py
models.py
config.py
run.py

For exemple

[weary sparrow]

It just ran the code and lagged

Like ran the code and closed python

[vital trout]

And in the init.py you need to instert your flask file

Heres an example

from flask import Flask

def create_app():
app = Flask(name)

with app.app_context():
    # Import parts of our application
    from . import routes
    
    # Register Blueprints, etc.
    
return app

[vital trout]

Go on http://127.0.0.1:5000/

And tell me what you see

[vital trout]

Mmh

Start the Flask file

[weary sparrow]

The python one, right?

Still the same

I can't read, because it's closing fast

But I did see the word "Error"

Wait there's two files

"Flask File"

"Flask"

[vital trout]

Delete Flask File

[weary sparrow]

Done

[vital trout]

Open "Flask"

[weary sparrow]

It opened and closed, but didn't seem that it ran the code

[vital trout]

Try to make a new one

With the same code

[weary sparrow]

Alright

That's weird

It ran the code and closed

I saw "Traceback"

When it opened

[vital trout]

Oh

I know why that dosen't work

You need to call the file

app.py

[weary sparrow]

That's what I did tho?

[vital trout]

So when you open it it instanly close ?

[weary sparrow]

Yeah, it shows some codings "Traceback" Or whatever that was

And closes

[vital trout]

So

When you go to the py app

You type python app.py

And that open and then close ?

[weary sparrow]

Yes, saved it as app.py and opened it, it closes

[vital trout]

Try this script

`from flask import Flask

app = Flask(name)

@app.route('/')
def index():
return 'Hello, Flask!'

if name == 'main':
app.run()
`

[weary sparrow]

Still the same

[vital trout]

Try this command

pip show Flask

[vital trout]

Flask is good

But

I don't know why you have this error

[weary sparrow]

Do you think it's a lag??

I don't know, maybe it's a glitch or something

@vital trout It's working

[vital trout]

Like

[vital trout]

Randomly working ?

So

[weary sparrow]

I deleted the file and re-coded

[vital trout]

Organize your project
myproject/
app/
init.py
routes.py
models.py
config.py
run.py

And in the init.py you need to instert your flask file
Heres an example
from flask import Flask

def createapp():
app = Flask(_name)

with app.app_context():
    # Import parts of our application
    from . import routes

Register Blueprints, etc.
return app

So

Its like that you put your Flask File in your Python Project

[weary sparrow]

In python?

Like new python files?

[vital trout]

Ill send you pictures you will understand

[weary sparrow]

Alright thank you

[vital trout]

so this is my project

[weary sparrow]

Ohh, lemme go try real quick

[vital trout]

and now

with this

i added Flask into my python project

[weary sparrow]

Like I should create a new folder?

[weary sparrow]

Ohhh

[vital trout]

Yeah

[weary sparrow]

Aight created a new folder

[weary sparrow]

Wait, what about config.py and the above?

Like..I'm suppose to code them?

[vital trout]

Yeah but i can send you the codes

[weary sparrow]

Yeah please

[vital trout]

Try this config first

[rich sundial]

If this is ChatGPT, please don't provide help using ChatGPT...

[vital trout]

I learned with ChatGPT

[rich sundial]

Firstly, you'll have to open up your project file inside of an editor

[weary sparrow]

Huh

[weary sparrow]

Oh alrighty

[rich sundial]

And have you installed flask, pip install flask

[vital trout]

yeah

everything is done

[weary sparrow]

I did all that, I just have to organise the project

[vital trout]

he need to know how to add flask in a python project

[rich sundial]

Have you got your website working?

[vital trout]

yeah

the website is working

everything is working

[weary sparrow]

Yep

[rich sundial]

Oh

[vital trout]

Everything is working as i said

I just took a ChatGPT config to show him how to add flask into a python project

[rich sundial]

!rule chatgpt

[twilit scroll]

Rules

10. Do not copy and paste answers from ChatGPT or similar AI tools.

[vital trout]

My bad

i'm new to this server

[weary sparrow]

Uh

I'm kinda new to python so I don't know how to code those that much

@rich sundial I think I organized my project now, uhm how am I supposed to run it now?

[rich sundial]

run.py maybe?

[weary sparrow]

Uh

[rich sundial]

The organization thing was not nessacary

[vital trout]

Open run.py

[placid parcel]

Hi could you help me to install Flask.

[rich sundial]

#❓｜how-to-get-help

[weary sparrow]

One sec

I think I coded the run.py wrong

Not sure though

@vital trout What was the coding for run.py?

[vital trout]

dm me

[buoyant anvil]

@weary sparrow in case this person sends any files in DMs, you shouldn't download them, it might be a virus.

[weary sparrow]

Yeah of course

I'm using a vpn in case it was a tracker too

[rich sundial]

Did you run it?

[weary sparrow]

No, they didn't send anything yet

[rich sundial]

Oh

[weary sparrow]

Uh the "from import" thingy

Should I change something?

from app import create_app

Like here

@rich sundial

[weary sparrow]

@buoyant anvil

[oak elbow]

Exactly

[weary sparrow]

Ohh
