I am trying to figure out how to deploy an instance of Apache Superset as a web app on Pythonanywhere using uWSGI+nginx.

I have installed started a virtual environment on Pythonanywhere and installed and setup Superset following the instructions on the website. Starting a Superset server on Pythonanywhere seems to work, however I can't find any documentation on how to use Superset together with flask, such that the Superset can be used with uWSGI+nginx as is supported by xxx.pythonanywhere.com.

The wsgi file is simple: 

import sys

project_home = u'/home/tmo/testsite'
if project_home not in sys.path:
    sys.path = [project_home] + sys.path

from flask_app import app as application

From what I can understand, on PythonAnywhere the WSGI side of things is managed by a file per domain in /var/www/you_domain_wsgi.py. It needs to define a variable called application, which is the same as the app in your init.py., but I fail to see how any sort of Flask app is deployed when running superset runserver. In their documentation, they simply state "Please refer to the documentation of your preferred technology to set up this Flask WSGI application in a way that works well in your environment.".

in /superset/bin/ there is a file called flask which contains 

import re
import sys
from flask.cli import main
if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.argv[0] = re.sub(r'(-script\.pyw?|\.exe)?$', '', sys.argv[0])
    sys.exit(main())

But I can't really find anything that could remotely look like a Flask wrapper for Superset.

Is there something fundamental I've misunderstood? Any pointers are welcome.

giles from Pythonanywhere suggested this simple solution: 

import superset
from superset import app as application

which worked instantly. E.g. the whole flask file looks like 

import sys
import superset

project_home = u'/home/tmo/testsite'
if project_home not in sys.path:
    sys.path = [project_home] + sys.path

from superset import app as application

where only the last line is necessary for superset to run.
