Hosting Python Flask Applications as a service on Ubuntu Linux Server

Let us explore how to run Python Flask application as a Linux Service.

Let’s follow the below steps :

In order to deploy a service on Ubuntu server we need to create a file (name of the service : riiva) :

sudo nano /etc/system/system/riiva.service

2. Now, use the following caption :

[Unit] section:

Description=uWSGI instance to serve myproject

After=network.target

[Service]

User=ubuntu

Group=www-data

WorkingDirectory=/home/ubuntu/riva-stremingserver/

Environment=”PATH=/home/ubuntu/stream/bin”

ExecStart= gunicorn — bind 0.0.0.0:9501 -k flask_sockets.worker app:app

[Install]

WantedBy=multi-user.target

service file

3. Here the following terms included :

User:- The user is defined as the current user.

Group:- the user is in which group of linux.

WorkingDirectory:- It refers to the directory which you want to be worked on.

Environment:- It the takes the path of env where it can be run.

ExecStart:- It refers to the command which you want to execute.

4. After this, to start this service we have a command:

-> sudo systemctl start riiva

5. In order to see the status of logs of this service, we have a command:

sudo systemctl status riiva

6. Now to restart the service, we have a command:

sudo systemctl restart riiva

Your application is hosted upon HTTP://IP-ADDRESS:9501

7. Finally, to end this service, we have a command:

sudo systemctl stop riiva

Congratulations, You are done with the hosting.
