Flask Framework Cookbook - Second Edition

How to do it...

First, create a new folder in the application and move all files inside this new folder.

Then, create __init__.py in the folders, which are to be used as modules.

After that, create a new file called run.py in the topmost folder. As the name implies, this file will be used to run the application.

Finally, create separate folders to act as modules.

Refer to the following file structure to get better understanding:

flask_app/ 
    - run.py 
    - my_app/ 
        - __init__.py 
        - hello/ 
            - __init__.py 
            - models.py 
            - views.py 

Let's see how each of the preceding files will look.

The flask_app/run.py file will look something like the following lines of code:

from my_app import app 
app.run(debug=True) 

The flask_app/my_app/__init__.py file will look ...
