I know there are plenty of questions about Flask and CherryPy and static files but I still can't seem to get this working.
There's a snippet to deploy a Flask app on CherryPy here: http://flask.pocoo.org/snippets/24/
Is there a quick modification to have the wsgiserver serve the content in the static directory of the flask app?
The static content features of CherryPy seem to reside within CherryPy. And I am unsure on how to mount a CherryPy app that does nothing but serve static content while working with this snippet.
Here is a snippet that should do what you are asking for. This is based on the set of instructions provided here (it's definitely worth a read, though I'm not sure how up to date it is).
import cherrypy
from hello import app
cherrypy.tree.graft(app, '/')
cherrypy.tree.mount(None, '/static', {'/' : {
'tools.staticdir.dir': app.static_folder,
'tools.staticdir.on': True,
}})
cherrypy.config.update({
'server.socket_port': 8080,
})
cherrypy.engine.start()
cherrypy.engine.block()
