Auto reloading python Flask app upon code changes

by

The current recommended way is with the flask command line utility.

https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/1.1.x/quickstart/#debug-mode

Example:

$ export FLASK_APP=main.py
$ export FLASK_ENV=development
$ flask run

or in one command:

$ FLASK_APP=main.py FLASK_ENV=development flask run

If you want different port than the default (5000) add --port option.

Example:

$ FLASK_APP=main.py FLASK_ENV=development flask run --port 8080

More options are available with:

$ flask run --help

FLASK_APP can also be set to module:app or module:create_app instead of module.py. See https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/1.1.x/cli/#application-discovery for a full explanation.
