How to create dynamic subdomains in a Flask application

Question

I am trying to setup variable route handling in a Flask application such as described in this answer: Dynamic Subdomain Handling in a Web App (Flask)

However, I want

Answer 1

To keep it simple, I redesigned the logic of my application into two distinct parts.

This way the Flask application only handles the API endpoint logic. The user profile logic is handled by another application. I can now add multiple Resources to the API application without worry about breaking the routing.

Answer 2

@app.before_request
def before_request():
    if 'api' == request.host[:-len(app.config['SERVER_NAME'])].rstrip('.'):
        redirect(url_for('api'))


@app.route('/', defaults={'path': ''}, subdomain='api')
@app.route('/<path:path>', subdomain='api')
def api(path):
    return "hello"

This should work. Add your api version to the path if needed or that could be processed by your API class.
