file - Serve files from MongoDB with Flask framework

Question

I am new in web development with python and flask and mongodb database. What I see is that everybody advises to use Apache to serve files because it's more efficient. But what if I store all my files in MongoDB using GridFS? In this case I do not serve my files by Apache anymore but directly by flask, is it the wrong thing to do? Thanks

如果您在需要使用 GridFS 来存储文件的地方，那么您将不得不使用 Flask 来为它们提供服务。

但是，如果您不必使用 GridFS，我建议您不要使用它，尤其是作为 Web 开发的新手。当你遇到困难时，会有更多的指南来帮助你。在你弄清楚 Flask 之后，你可以在 GridFS 上添加。
