I have managed to to install flask and run the hello-world script:
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
return 'Hello World!'
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run()
I was impressed how easy it was. Then I wanted to make my web-server visible externally. As recommended, I put host='0.0.0.0'
as the argument of run function. Then I found my IP address (in Google) and put it in the address line of my web browser (while the hello-world-script was running).
As a result I got: "A username and password are being requested" and a dialogue box where I need to put a user name and password. I am not sure but I think it comes from my wireless network. Is there a way to change this behaviour?
