Dynamic Subdomain Handling in a Web App (Flask) [closed]
All Flask's routing constructs support the subdomain
keyword argument (this includes support for route variables).
@app.route("/", subdomain="static")def static_index(): """Flask supports static subdomains This is available at static.your-domain.tld""" return "static.your-domain.tld"@app.route("/dynamic", subdomain="<username>")def username_index(username): """Dynamic subdomains are also supported Try going to user1.your-domain.tld/dynamic""" return username + ".your-domain.tld"
To complement Sean Viera's post, you also need to set the SERVER_NAME config variable.
Documentation: http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/config/#SERVER_NAME
The name and port number of the server. Required for subdomain support (e.g.: 'myapp.dev:5000') Note that localhost does not support subdomains so setting this to “localhost” does not help. Setting a SERVER_NAME also by default enables URL generation without a request context but with an application context.
To test locally you need to add entries to your hosts
