using custom folder

[boubouhkarim]

Hi,
i like the idea of this extension,

i know it requires that the plugin folder must be in the root directory of my flask app,

I did some tweaks to init_app function in init.py file

self.plugin_folder = os.path.join(self.app.root_path, plugin_folder) base_plugin_folder = self.plugin_folder.split(os.sep)[-1] self.base_plugin_package = ".".join( [base_app_folder, base_plugin_folder] )

and in my main.py file i can init the app with

plugin_manager.init_app( app, base_app_folder='app', plugin_folder="app/plugins" )

but i get into a strange error that the application context is empty !

when i run flask dev server
i have this error

ctx.app.extensions.get('plugin_manager')._event_manager.connect( AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'app'

any help please !

That means that you try to access the plugin_manager without an application context.

Hi,

yes i understand the error message, however i didn't change any thing in the plugin code source except the lines about the custom plugin folder,

also the plugin work if i don't use any connect_event,
i did some debuging, the stack object is of type LocalStack but stack.top is of type NoneType

here is how i initialized my object :

app/extensions.py

from flask_plugins import PluginManager
login_manager = LoginManager()

main.py
from app.extensions import plugin_manager
plugin_manager.init_app( app, base_app_folder='app', plugin_folder="app/plugins" )

For the plugin i'm just testing with the hello_word you provided in the example.

Do you have an idea where i probably did something wrong !

Thanks.
