Starting flask server in background

Question

I have a flask application which I am currently starting up in the following way:

#phantom.py
__author__ = \'uruddarraju\'
from phantom.api.v1 import app
app.run         


        

Answer 1

Probably the best way to do this is behind nginx like @RaphDG answered, But if you want to run it in the background for personal use I found that the logging system would not let you to use only with "&" at the end of the command line, in addition i found that the logger is internal logger of Werkzeug library.

To get around this you can do the next steps(code below):

1. import werkzeug._internal
2. create demi logger class
3. Assign the new class to werkzeug._internal._log (log class)

It will evade notifications and loggers and let you run this process in the background (with "&")

code:

import werkzeug._internal

def demi_logger(type, message,*args,**kwargs):
    pass

the first line in the __main__:

werkzeug._internal._log = demi_logger
