quart package¶

Module contents¶

class quart.Blueprint(name: str, import_name: str, static_folder: Optional[str] = None, static_url_path: Optional[str] = None, template_folder: Optional[str] = None, url_prefix: Optional[str] = None, subdomain: Optional[str] = None, url_defaults: Optional[dict] = None, root_path: Optional[str] = None, cli_group: Optional[str] = Ellipsis)¶

A blueprint is a collection of application properties.

The application properties include routes, error handlers, and before and after request functions. It is useful to produce modular code as it allows the properties to be defined in a blueprint thereby deferring the addition of these properties to the app.

class quart.Config(root_path: Union[bytes, str, os.PathLike], defaults: Optional[dict] = None)¶

Bases: dict

Extends a standard Python dictionary with additional load (from) methods.

Note that the convention (as enforced when loading) is that configuration keys are upper case. Whilst you can set lower case keys it is not recommended.

from_envvar(variable_name: str, silent: bool = False) → bool¶

Load the configuration from a location specified in the environment.

This will load a cfg file using from_pyfile() from the location specified in the environment, for example the two blocks below are equivalent.

app.config.from_envvar('CONFIG')

filename = os.environ['CONFIG']
app.config.from_pyfile(filename)

from_file(filename: str, load: Callable[[IO[Any]], Mapping], silent: bool = False) → bool¶

Load the configuration from a data file.

This allows configuration to be loaded as so

app.config.from_file('config.toml', toml.load)
app.config.from_file('config.json', json.load)

Parameters

filename – The filename which when appended to root_path gives the path to the file.
load – Callable that takes a file descriptor and returns a mapping loaded from the file.
silent – If True any errors will fail silently.

from_json(filename: str, silent: bool = False) → None¶

Load the configuration values from a JSON formatted file.

This allows configuration to be loaded as so

app.config.from_json('config.json')

Parameters

filename – The filename which when appended to root_path gives the path to the file.
silent – If True any errors will fail silently.

from_mapping(mapping: Optional[Mapping[str, Any]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → bool¶

Load the configuration values from a mapping.

This allows either a mapping to be directly passed or as keyword arguments, for example,

config = {'FOO': 'bar'}
app.config.from_mapping(config)
app.config.form_mapping(FOO='bar')

Parameters

mapping – Optionally a mapping object.
kwargs – Optionally a collection of keyword arguments to form a mapping.

from_object(instance: Union[object, str]) → None¶

Load the configuration from a Python object.

This can be used to reference modules or objects within modules for example,

app.config.from_object('module')
app.config.from_object('module.instance')
from module import instance
app.config.from_object(instance)

are valid.

Parameters: instance – Either a str referencing a python object or the object itself.

from_pyfile(filename: str, silent: bool = False) → bool¶

Load the configuration from a Python cfg or py file.

See Python’s ConfigParser docs for details on the cfg format. It is a common practice to load the defaults from the source using the from_object() and then override with a cfg or py file, for example

app.config.from_object('config_module')
app.config.from_pyfile('production.cfg')

Parameters: filename – The filename which when appended to root_path gives the path to the file

get_namespace(namespace: str, lowercase: bool = True, trim_namespace: bool = True) → Dict[str, Any]¶

Return a dictionary of keys within a namespace.

A namespace is considered to be a key prefix, for example the keys FOO_A, FOO_BAR, FOO_B are all within the FOO namespace. This method would return a dictionary with these keys and values present.

config = {'FOO_A': 'a', 'FOO_BAR': 'bar', 'BAR': False}
app.config.from_mapping(config)
assert app.config.get_namespace('FOO_') == {'a': 'a', 'bar': 'bar'}

Parameters

namespace – The namespace itself (should be uppercase).
lowercase – Lowercase the keys in the returned dictionary.
trim_namespace – Remove the namespace from the returned keys.

    ...
```
host – The full host name for this route (should include subdomain if needed) - cannot be used with subdomain.

This will allow the function provided to be called once after anything is served (after last byte is sent).

This is designed to be used as a decorator, if used to decorate a synchronous function, the function will be wrapped in run_sync() and run in a thread executor (with the wrapped function returned). An example usage,

@app.after_serving
async def func():
    ...

Parameters: func – The function itself.

app_context() → quart.ctx.AppContext¶

Create and return an app context.

This is best used within a context, i.e.

async with app.app_context():
    ...

app_ctx_globals_class¶: alias of quart.ctx._AppCtxGlobals

async asgi_app(scope: Union[hypercorn.typing.HTTPScope, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketScope, hypercorn.typing.LifespanScope], receive: Callable[[], Awaitable[Union[hypercorn.typing.HTTPRequestEvent, hypercorn.typing.HTTPDisconnectEvent, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketConnectEvent, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketReceiveEvent, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketDisconnectEvent, hypercorn.typing.LifespanStartupEvent, hypercorn.typing.LifespanShutdownEvent]]], send: Callable[[Union[hypercorn.typing.HTTPResponseStartEvent, hypercorn.typing.HTTPResponseBodyEvent, hypercorn.typing.HTTPServerPushEvent, hypercorn.typing.HTTPDisconnectEvent, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketAcceptEvent, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketSendEvent, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketResponseStartEvent, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketResponseBodyEvent, hypercorn.typing.WebsocketCloseEvent, hypercorn.typing.LifespanStartupCompleteEvent, hypercorn.typing.LifespanStartupFailedEvent, hypercorn.typing.LifespanShutdownCompleteEvent, hypercorn.typing.LifespanShutdownFailedEvent]], Awaitable[None]]) → None¶

This handles ASGI calls, it can be wrapped in middleware.

When using middleware with Quart it is preferable to wrap this method rather than the app itself. This is to ensure that the app is an instance of this class - which allows the quart cli to work correctly. To use this feature simply do,

app.asgi_app = middleware(app.asgi_app)

async def login():
    ...
    await flash('Login successful')
    return redirect(url_for('index'))

allows the index route to show the flashed messages, without having to accept the message as an argument or otherwise. See get_flashed_messages() for message retrieval.

quart.get_flashed_messages(with_categories: bool = False, category_filter: Iterable[str] = ()) → Union[List[str], List[Tuple[str, str]]]¶

Retrieve the flashed messages stored in the session.

This is mostly useful in templates where it is exposed as a global function, for example

<ul>
{% for message in get_flashed_messages() %}
  <li>{{ message }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>

Note that caution is required for usage of category_filter as all messages will be popped, but only those matching the filter returned. See flash() for message creation.

quart.get_template_attribute(template_name: str, attribute: str) → Any¶

Load a attribute from a template.

This is useful in Python code in order to use attributes in templates.

Parameters

template_name – To load the attribute from.
attribute – The attribute name to load

quart.has_app_context() → bool¶

Check if execution is within an app context.

This allows a controlled way to act if there is an app context available, or silently not act if not. For example,

if has_app_context():
    log.info("Executing in %s context", current_app.name)
