QUESTION
I have a username and password I built from scratch, this works fine until I thought, people forgetting their password.
I would like to find a way to check when a url has been visited to then change the password for urls like "example.com/fp?id=" that has been sent by email.
I cannot use the flask-security module at this point due to the way I have created the databases and how its integrated into my website.
Yes I have looked, and it seems most ways require using flask-login and flask-security, thanks for any answers in advance :)

QUESTION
I have a webapp using Python, Flask and Flask-Security-Too. When running locally against a deployed database (also in Azure) It's working as intended. When the application is deployed to Azure it also works nicely. However, after a period of time it will start to throw errors like the one below:
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Nov-25 at 15:56This sometimes happens since often, cloud DB instances will close idle connections. Make sure you have the following in your config:
app.config["SQLALCHEMY_ENGINE_OPTIONS"] = {"pool_pre_ping": True}
and see if that helps.

I am trying to deplow a django project to heroku but i am getting this error.
ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1: /app/.heroku/python/bin/python /app/.heroku/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/pep517/_in_process.py prepare_metadata_for_build_wheel /tmp/tmp5mrz1adn Check the logs for full command output. ! Push rejected, failed to compile Python app. ! Push failed
This is the entire log
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Oct-29 at 11:41After carefully reading log file, here's what I recommend to do for clean deploy.
While venv is activated and you're in project directory (where manage.py
live), do the following:
- Open requirements.txt
- Delete unneeded modules from requirements.txt
- Uninstall unneeded modules with
pip uninstall module
- Now run
pip freeze requirements.txt
- Deactivate venv
- Then add
requirements.txt
to source controlgit add -A
- Commit your changes
git commit -m "deleted unneeded modules"
- If you have existed Heroku app, connect to it with
heroku git:remote -a myapp
, else pass this step - Deploy,
git push heroku master
If you are unsure which modules your project need and I can't determin exactly the project's requirements but if you have basic project, you only need 3 modules which are Django
, psycopg2-binary
, gunicorn
, so do the following for clean deploy:
- Delete venv
- Outside project directory, create new one
- Activate venv
- Install the modules you need, probably
Django
,psycopg2-binary
,gunicorn
- Now run
pip freeze requirements.txt
- Deactivate venv
- Then add
requirements.txt
to source controlgit add -A
- Commit your changes
git commit -m "deleted unneeded modules"
- If you have existed Heroku app, connect to it with
heroku git:remote -a myapp
, else pass this step - Deploy,
git push heroku master
QUESTION
I'd like to use token authorization from Flask-Security-Too for this "Article" endpoint. However, the decorator function @auth_token_required("token")
needs the context of the app. The app is initialized in a different file.
I've added app.app_context()
but I don't know how to tell the decorator to use it's context.
Note: I'm working with Flask-RestX for providing a SwaggerUI (and OpenAPI spec). Also, I use Blueprints/Namespaces to modularize the API - which makes it a bit more complex.
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Aug-06 at 15:44I am not familiar with flask_restx - however - an app_context is automatically created by flask when it first processes a request. You don't mention when you are getting this error - at config time or actual request time (or is it when you call add_namespace?). You might want to look at: https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/2.0.x/appcontext/ to learn more about the appcontext.

I am using flask-security and is now adding flask-admin. I have my user view and my roles view. I can create users and roles. But the roles don't show as the respective role names in the user dropdown menu. All roles just shows as "Role object".
I am using Mongoengine.

QUESTION
I use flask-security and wanted to add additional fields to the registration page.
I tried to do as it is written in the documentation
The fields were added, but the data from them is not sent to the database. I also learned that adding new fields is not possible if app. config ['SECURITY_CONFIRMABLE'] = True. I have no errors in the terminal. After sending the email, I get the following.
reply: b'221 2.0.0 closing connection z17sm242899lfe.135 - gsmtp\r\n'

What am I doing wrong? Why data from input does not get into the database?
app.py
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Jan-27 at 21:35First - and I know this is confusing - if CONFIRMABLE=True you need to base your form on the ConfirmRegisterForm(). As for data not getting in to DB - your form field names and DB column names must match! so first_name and last_name should be your DB column names...
QUESTION
I have an application which uses flask and flask-security-too in the rest layer. Since flask-security contains some nice, out-of-the-box solutions for user signup, registration etc. including some override-able views. I would really like to use it if possible.
However, I would instead like to plug in a react frontend to get the SPA things going. I read in the documentation for flask-security that the views are indeed possible to override but not sure if/how I would manage to get this working for a built react app?
To summarize my question: Can I use React.js still benefit from flask-security features?
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Dec-30 at 14:55Please read: https://flask-security-too.readthedocs.io/en/stable/spa.html
basically - you will be using the JSON api rather than forms.
QUESTION
This question has a similar question that was posted 7 years ago. I want to know what is pertinent currently. Flask-auth, Principal and Flask Security
I have found so much documentation on login and user authorization and controls im a little uncertain how I should be going about this. Im using Flask_SQLAlchemy and sqlite to build a CRUD app. I want to be able to create user specific login authorization and roles so that some portions of the app are or are not visible depending on your role and or authorization. I was hoping that maybe someone could provide the differences and/or the pros and cons or maybe what the industry standard is? Im looking at
Flask-Admin - https://flask-admin.readthedocs.io/en/latest/introduction/
Role based Authorization - https://flask-user.readthedocs.io/en/latest/authorization.html
login_required - https://flask-login.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
Flask Principal - https://pythonhosted.org/Flask-Principal/
Also, theres the option of writing your own code, Im already using -
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Oct-06 at 19:39While you listed some related plugins, you did not specify what you want to do.
A couple of thoughts about the mentioned plugins:
Flask Principal -> unmaintained
Flask-User -> no commits for over a year; that's a warning sign for me; I would not use it
Flask-Admin -> I have used it for one app, where I needed basic CRUD implementation and an user and an admin role; worked out ok; while there is activity, the project is drowning in issues and pull requests; e.g. examples are broken for years; trivial pull requests do not get merged
Flask-Login -> I use it for every Flask project, works pretty well; no authorization suppport!; while the maintainer is pretty inactive, one of the Flask core maintainers has access to the project and does some housekeeping work
So, if you want to use Flask, I'd go with Flask-Login, except you have a very basic crud application, than you could have a look at Flask-Admin.
If Flask is not a given requirement, I'd have a look at eg Django or other frameworks.
QUESTION
I am trying to use flask-Security to change the password. Basically, there are no errors being thrown but the hash in my database is not updating. When creating the initial password, everything works fine.
However, when I try to update using the code in update.py
the password isn't updating. I appreciate your insight. Thank you.
update.py
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-Sep-06 at 16:20Not totally sure what you are trying to accomplish - but the code snippets have your User model with a field password_hash - not password. Flask-Security requires certain defined model names to work. Not sure where you are getting check_password_hash() and generate_password_hash()....
The way Flask-Security updates password is:

Vulnerabilities
No vulnerabilities reported
Install flask-security
You can use flask-security 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.
