            app.config["SQLALCHEMY_ENGINE_OPTIONS"] = {"pool_pre_ping": True}

            After 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 control git 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 control git 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

            How to use flask app context when using decorators
            Asked 2021-Aug-09 at 10:22

            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.

            I 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.

            First - 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...

            Is there any way to use a react js frontend to call flask security features?
            Asked 2020-Dec-30 at 14:55

            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?

            While 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.
