flask.Config.from_pyfile

Config.from_pyfile(filename, silent=False)[source]

Updates the values in the config from a Python file. This function behaves as if the file was imported as module with the from_object() function.

Parameters:
  • filename – the filename of the config. This can either be an absolute filename or a filename relative to the root path.
  • silent – set to True if you want silent failure for missing files.

New in version 0.7: silent parameter.
