QUESTION
I am using Airflow 2.0 and have installed the slack module through requirements.txt in MWAA. I have installed all the below packages, but still, it says package not found
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Apr-10 at 04:33By default, MWAA is constrained to using version 3.0.0
for the package apache-airflow-providers-slack
. If you specify version 4.2.3
in requirements.txt
, it will not be installed (error logs should be available in CloudWatch). You'll have to downgrade to version 3.0.0
.
apache-airflow-providers-slack
(constraints.txt)
OR
Add constraints file to the top of requirements.txt
to use version 4.2.3
of apache-airflow-providers-slack
.
Add the constraints file for your Apache Airflow v2 environment to the top of your requirements.txt file.
QUESTION
I have a Flask app which stores user sessions in Redis on localhost.
User sessions are managed by Flask-Session module:
ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-12 at 16:55I've figured it out.
Obviously you can't run flask.request.environ.get('REMOTE_ADDR')
before the request, even with @app.before_request
.
So, to identify sessions (Redis key names) and assign them to app users (so I know which session/key belongs to which user) my app now writes Flask-Session SID along with the logged in username to the Apache error.log:
QUESTION
I have a Flask app for http and web socket (Flask-SocketIO) communication between client and server using gevent. I also use server side session with Flask-Session extension for the app. I run a background task using SocketIO.start_background_task. And from this task, I need to access session information which will be used to emit message using socketio. I get error when accessing session from the task "RuntimeError: Working outside of request context." This typically means that you attempted to use functionality that needed an active HTTP request.
Socket IO instance is created as below-
socket_io = SocketIO(app, async_mode='gevent', manage_session=False)
Is there any issue with this usage. How this issue could be addressed?
Thanks
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Jan-14 at 13:14This is not related to Flask-SocketIO, but to Flask. The background task that you started does not have request and application contexts, so it does not have access to the session (it doesn't even know who the client is).
Flask provides the copy_current_request_context decorator duplicate the request/app contexts from the request handler into a background task.
The example from the Flask documentation uses gevent.spawn()
to start the task, but this would be the same for a task started with start_background_task()
.
QUESTION
Trying to create login api utilizing flask session with react as the front end.
After configuring and trying to open sessions I get the below error:
RuntimeError: The session is unavailable because no secret key was set. Set the secret_key on the application to something unique and secret.
The code is as follows:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Dec-10 at 21:41The secret key is actually being set, but is not set within the main api/.py that is being called on runtime. Moving the secret key import into the .py file being directly called on runtime resolved this issue.
QUESTION
I have been having some odd issues with docker today. I described one issue @ pathlib: cannot import name 'Sequence' from 'collections'. I didn't really need one of the packages that was causing the break so I took it out. Note that this issue was only happening in docker.
After taking out artifactory package dependency install on docker passed successfully, but am hitting TypeError in my flask app init file when importing:
from flask_socketio import SocketIO, emit
which requires eventlet which is where the error comes from:
ANSWER
Answered 2021-Oct-07 at 02:29Searching for the exception, leads to the corresponding eventlet issue: https://github.com/eventlet/eventlet/issues/687
The summary is that eventlet (0.32.0) is currently not compatible with Python 3.10 because it tries to patch types that have become immutable in Python 3.10.
Like with your requirements, it is good practice to be more specific with your Docker dependencies too. Today using the tag 3
for the Python Docker image will give you 3.10.0
, unless it is using a cache. In the future it could be a different version. Since there is a compatibility issue with Python 3.10, use Python 3.9 - the currently latest Python 3.9 Docker tag is 3.9.7
.
i.e. it should work once you change your first line of the Dockerfile

QUESTION
So essentially, what I'm trying to do is remove a user's session id whenever they leave the website/close their tab because I want them to re-login every time they access the site. I've heard from other Stack Overflow questions that I should try out the Flask-SocketIO extension, and use the disconnect event to detect when they leave the website and then pop their ids from the session. So that's exactly what I did, however, whenever I pop the session, it doesn't actually register. Here's the full code I used to try implement that.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jul-30 at 11:35I'm sorry but you have been misled. Using Flask-SocketIO just so that you can be notified when a person leaves your site is extremely overkill, and as you've seen, it doesn't even work for your purposes.
If you want to know why you can't make changes to the user session from a Socket.IO event handler the reason is that Flask-SocketIO uses WebSocket. The user session is maintained in a cookie, which can only be modified in a server response to an HTTP request initiated by the client. WebSocket has no ability to modify cookies.
So I would forget about using Flask-SocketIO for this. it's really not one of its use cases.
Instead, I suggest you look into adding a beforeunload event in your page, where you can delete the session cookie directly in the client. For this to work you will also need to set the SESSION_COOKIE_HTTPONLY
configuration option to Flask, so that JavaScript in your page can see, modify and delete the cookie. Note that this may have security implications, so think about it very carefully before doing it.

QUESTION
I have a server-side session file created and I am new to web applications. I don't understand why the session files when opened with text file has plain content inside it. I have a secret key setup and all but why is it not encrypted?
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jun-20 at 22:03Trying to answer it to the best of my knowledge.
1) Why is the content not encrypted?
You do not really need to worry about the session stored in your server as long as your server is secured. The vulnerability is the session stored as cookies in the browser. To bypass that, the 'SECRET_KEY' is used to let the server sign the session variables before storing them in the browser. That is the reason why you might still see the session in plain text on the server. It will be signed in the browser cookie-data though.
2) When I do session.pop() why is the file not deleted?
To understand what the session.pop does, I did a little exercise. At first, my flask session looked like this:

...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Apr-29 at 20:03There appears to be some backward compatibility issues with SocketIO. You can uninstall python-engineio
, python-socketio
(and Flask-SocketIO
just to be on the safe side) and reinstall lower versions.

Install flask-session
You can use flask-session like any standard Python library. You will need to make sure that you have a development environment consisting of a Python distribution including header files, a compiler, pip, and git installed. Make sure that your pip, setuptools, and wheel are up to date. When using pip it is generally recommended to install packages in a virtual environment to avoid changes to the system.
