flask-color-extended is an extension for Flask that improves the built-in web server with colors when debugging.
Differs from original library (https://github.com/Teemu/flask-color) by including current time and overall response time. Also supports new Flask versions.

Installing

You can install this using pip.

$ pip install flask-color-extended

How to use

There's an example of use in sample.py. Add two lines to your code:

# Import this extension
from flask_color_extended import color

# Initialize extension with your app.
color.init_app(app)

Flask configuration DEBUG must be True for this extension to function. You can override this by setting COLOR_ALWAYS_ON true.

Configuration

  • COLOR_ALWAYS_ON: Force extension on even if not in DEBUG mode
  • COLOR_PATTERN_GRAY: Regular expression that matches static file requests (these requests are marked with gray color)
  • COLOR_PATTERN_HIDE: Hides (fully) requests that match this regular expression.
