Flask will only log if debug is true - python

I have recently created a flask app that streams a video to my local network. This is on a raspberry pi. I have attempted to make a log file using this code::
import logging
logging.basicConfig(filename='error.log',level=logging.DEBUG)
When I run the flask app with app.run(), the app will not log anything to the error.log file. But, when I run it with debug=true , then the app logs all info. The error.log file when I run it looks like this:
INFO:werkzeug:10.0.0.127 - - [10/Feb/2018 16:37:40] "GET /video_feed HTTP/1.1" $
INFO:werkzeug:10.0.0.127 - - [10/Feb/2018 16:37:40] "GET /static/css/bootstrap.$

I was wondering if it is possible to not have the Debug on when I run my flask app, and still log all information to the error.log file. I have tried switching the level to logging.INFO but that has not worked.

Try setting the logging level to error.
logging.basicConfig(filename='error.log',level=logging.ERROR)

You are setting the log level for the root logger but as mentioned in the flask logging docs flask configures its own logger in the 'flask' logging namespace.
The application logger is available as a property on the application object. Do
app = Flask(__name__)
app.logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
if you'd like to always show logs at DEBUG level.

I couldn't figure out which way I wanted to go with logging that way, so I decided to create my own logging instance, and then log any info I wanted to it, which seemed to work. Although this is a longer and manual process, it let me control what was logged and how it was logged. The code looked similar to this::
#Import requests from flask to log things such as form data and other requests made to the server
from flask import request
#import python logging for logging to files
import logging
from logging.handlers import RotatingFileHandler
#How I logged the information I wanted to log
logInfo = 'Info on Login: ' + 'IP: ' + request.remote_addr
app.logger.info(logInfo)
#Create the logging instance test
handler = RotatingFileHandler('error.log', maxBytes=10000, backupCount=1)
handler.setLevel(logging.INFO)
app.logger.addHandler(handler)
app.logger.info('INFO TEST')

Flask is loading static files from a different path when a route is called [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Link to Flask static files with url_for
(2 answers)
Why use Flask's url_for?
(1 answer)
Closed 3 years ago.
I have 2 route functions, one to get all users and one to get a specific user. Both functions render the same template. The first function works fine, the problem is with the second one. When rendering the template it tries to load static files from another directory.
I tried using a different template for each one and the problem remained.
Get all users route:
#app.route('/users')
def list_users():
users = Users.query.all()
return render_template('users.html', users=users)
Get one user route:
#app.route('/users/<username>')
def get_user(username):
user = Users.query.filter_by(name=username).first()
if user:
return render_template('users.html', users=[user])
Template rendered by get_user route function:

It is trying to load css files from /users/static/ instead /static/. Why is that?
You are using relative paths in your template, so the final URL is relative to whatever URL you're at. When viewing /users, if the template links to static/css/admin.css, it becomes /users/static/css/admin.css. If the path starts with a /, it is an absolute URL and won't do this.
Instead, use url_for, which generates absolute URLs no matter where you are and how the app is deployed.
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ url_for('static', filename='css/admin.css') }}>
This becomes /static/css/admin.css.
Please use the below code.
Get one user route:
#app.route('/users/<username>')
def get_user(username):
user = Users.query.filter_by(name=username).first()
return render_template('users.html', users=user)
Additionally please share the html page users.html for review.

Flask - Having more than one static folder (the static folders are actually dynamic)

Im currently working on a project that has the following structure:
ROOT
-js
-dist
-index.html
-bunch of other files that index.html uses
-src
-main.py
-doc_apps
-app1
-index.html
-other resources that index.html needs
-app2
-index.html
-other resources that index.html needs
Now my flask configuration is:
ROOT_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__))
COMPONENT_FOLDER = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(ROOT_DIR, '../'))
DIST_FOLDER = os.path.join(COMPONENT_FOLDER, 'js\\dist')
DOCUMENTATION_FOLDER = os.path.join(COMPONENT_FOLDER, 'documentation_data')
app = Flask(__name__, static_folder=DIST_FOLDER, template_folder=DIST_FOLDER, static_url_path='')
my_loader = jinja2.ChoiceLoader([
app.jinja_loader,
jinja2.FileSystemLoader(DOCUMENTATION_FOLDER),
])
app.jinja_loader = my_loader
#app.route('/')
def index():
"""
This the main entry to the application
Returns
-------
out
renders the 'index.html' file
"""
return render_template('index.html')
#app.route('/get_index_html', methods=['GET'])
def get_index_html():
index_html_path = request.args.get('path')
full_root = os.path.join(index_html_path).replace('\\','/')
return render_template(full_root)
When I start my app and go to the main page im able to render the index.html (the one in the js/dist folder) and everything works great
the problem starts when I try to render one of the inner index.html.
Im able to render the index.html by itself but I get the following errors

I can tell that the problem is that it cant find the static files that are needed in order to generate this index.html correctly.
How can I tell it that for this specific index.html use some_static_folder?
I was wondering if there is something like render(html, static_folder=...)
I would like to mention that each one of the App1/index.html
has its own links and those links rely on the inner structure of App1, so how can I configure that when I send App1/index.html it will use some static_folder for everything that will be invoked from that App1/index.html
Some more info, App1/2 can be added also after the server is already running.
thank you very much for your help

Flask adding a slash when a URL has a get parameter

Flask seems to be not adding a slash at the url end before the get parameters in every case. But is doing it only in this case.
it changes /users?uid=1 to /users/?uid=1
After changing it to tha it even gives me a 404 error. "The requested URL was not found on the server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again."
Here's the code:
from flask import Flask, render_template, jsonify, Response, request
app = Flask(__name__)
#app.route("/users")
#app.route("/post")
#app.route("/bookmarks")
#app.route("/<target>")
def category_browser(target = ""):
if(target != "" and target not in ['categories']):
return render_template("404.html")
else:
return render_template("view.html")
if(__name__ == "__main__"):
app.debug = True;
app.run(port=int(80))
You had a stale cache entry in instance of Chromium when you had the route defined as #app.route("/users/"). You later changed to #app.route("/users") which Chrome still had it cached with the trailing /. Try accessing this simple example using incognito mode and see that /users?uid=1 remaining unchanged and that no 404 is reported. This is what happens when I first accessed it initially (using Chrome 42).
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jul/2015 14:02:39] "GET /users?target=1 HTTP/1.1" 200 -
Then stopping that script (thanks for that complete almost self-contained example) and add #app.route("/users/") to the list of routes, below the original #app.route("/users/") route (to have a higher order of precedence so that Flask first trigger the redirect), i.e.:
#app.route("/users")
#app.route("/users/")
(Or simply remove the #app.route("/users") decorator)
Now try accessing the same page again in your incognito session, note that in your console:
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jul/2015 14:04:11] "GET /users?target=1 HTTP/1.1" 301 -
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jul/2015 14:04:11] "GET /users/?target=1 HTTP/1.1" 200 -
Ah, there's your redirect. Remove that extra line we just added, try going to /users?target=1 again, this is what happens:
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jul/2015 14:07:22] "GET /users/?target=1 HTTP/1.1" 404 -
Chrome silently rewrites the URL to /users/?target=1 based on the cache entry in the incognito mode, and is reflected because only that URL is showing up on the Flask access log.
If you wish to support both methods, you have to do it this way:
#app.route("/users/")
#app.route("/users")
Then both access methods work:
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jul/2015 14:08:49] "GET /users/?target=1 HTTP/1.1" 200 -
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jul/2015 14:08:59] "GET /users?target=1 HTTP/1.1" 200 -
Rather than resulting in:
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jul/2015 14:10:00] "GET /users?target=1 HTTP/1.1" 301 -
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jul/2015 14:10:00] "GET /users/?target=1 HTTP/1.1" 200 -

Redirect BaseHTTPServer stdout to logging

I wrote a quick webserver using BaseHTTPServer, and it's working nicely, so now I'm trying to implement logging, and I noticed, hey, seems like BaseHTTPServer already has some logging information that it spits out to the stdout, is there a way to implement my logging to also include this stdout.
i.e. Have logging record all information from the stdout.
Note: I am not explicitly printing anything to the console window, when a GET request is made, BaseHTTPServer handles printing this to the console.
Example:
127.0.0.1 - - [02/May/2014 20:51:52] "GET /postTest.html HTTP/1.1" 200 -
127.0.0.1 - - [02/May/2014 20:51:52] "GET /assets/foundation.js HTTP/1.1" 200 -
127.0.0.1 - - [02/May/2014 20:51:52] "GET /assets/bootstrap.css HTTP/1.1" 200 -
127.0.0.1 - - [02/May/2014 20:51:57] "GET /index.html HTTP/1.1" 200 -
127.0.0.1 - - [02/May/2014 20:51:57] "GET /assets/foundation.js HTTP/1.1" 200 -
127.0.0.1 - - [02/May/2014 20:51:57] "GET /assets/bootstrap.css HTTP/1.1" 200 -
According to the BaseHTTPServer documentation, you can override the log_message method to do this. By default, it just writes to stderr, but you can make it write to your logger instead (or have it write to both).
