Hosting Flask(python) API on Azure API

问题

Team, I have been trying to host flask API on Azure API app. And it's not working.

Azure API app is working. Hosting page opens up with python version as 3.6.6.

I am not able to host simple hello world project and different errors I am getting are as follows.

Can't add handlers in web.config. if added 500 error.
Can't install flask from kudu. Getting permission error. When installed with --user, flask is installed to user folder. Changed path to include this folder but still can't import flask.
Deployed using git. Upload is successful but while deploying, error stating unsupported run time version of python 3.6.

Probably I am missing very basics of setting up python on Azure API app ? Problem is I am always getting 500 error. But basic azure hosting start page works ( unless I touch web.config)

Note : - Followed baby python API tutorial.

Followed instructions given in azure help section
Also added python 3.6 extension. Nothing changed.

There is an answer for a similar SO thread How to run python3.7 based flask web api on azure to help using WSGI_Handle to deploy your flask app.

Or if you just want to know how to run a hello world demo in the offical flask website on Azure as like using flask run on local machine, you can follow my steps below.

Install Python 3.6.4 x64 site extension via Kudu on your API App.
Move to Kudu CMD console,

Then to follow the below commands to upgrade pip and install flask in the Kudu console.

D:\home\python364x64>python -V
Python 3.6.4

D:\home\python364x64>pip -V
pip 9.0.1 from D:\home\python364x64\lib\site-packages (python 3.6)


D:\home\python364x64>python -m pip install --upgrade pip

Upload the app.py & web.config files,

Here is their content as below.

app.py Content:

from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def hello():
    return "Hello World!"

web.config Content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <appSettings>
        <add key="PYTHONPATH" value="D:\home\site\wwwroot" />
        <add key="PATH" value="D:\home\python364x64;D:\home\python364x64\Scripts;%PATH%" />
    </appSettings>
  <system.webServer>
    <handlers>
        <add name="httpPlatformHandler" path="*" verb="*" modules="httpPlatformHandler" resourceType="Unspecified" />
    </handlers>
    <httpPlatform processPath="D:\home\python364x64\Scripts\flask.exe" arguments="run --port %HTTP_PLATFORM_PORT%" stdoutLogEnabled="true" startupRetryCount='10'>
    </httpPlatform>
  </system.webServer>
</configuration>

Then fresh your browser or restart your API App first to browser, you will see as the figure below.
