rq-dashboard works from the command line, but not integrated into flask.
The simple example from github
from flask import Flask
import rq_dashboard
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config.from_object(rq_dashboard.default_settings)
rq_dashboard.web.setup_rq_connection(app)
app.register_blueprint(rq_dashboard.blueprint, url_prefix="/rq")
@app.route("/")
def hello():
return "Hello World!"
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
returns the error below
File "rq_db.py", line 6, in <module>
rq_dashboard.web.setup_rq_connection(app)
/python/site-packages/rq_dashboard/web.py", line 74, in setup_rq_connection
raise RuntimeError("No Redis configuration!")
RuntimeError: No Redis configuration!
I am using rhel8 with Flask 3.0, python 3.11 in a virtual environment, redis 5.0.3, redis-py 5.0.1, rq 1.15.1, rq-dashboard 0.6.7 and mod_wsgi
Even though I am using the default redis url, I needed to specify it in the Flask app.
Working code is:
from flask import Flask
import rq_dashboard
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config.from_object(rq_dashboard.default_settings)
app.config["RQ_DASHBOARD_REDIS_URL"] = "redis://127.0.0.1:6379"
rq_dashboard.web.setup_rq_connection(app)
app.register_blueprint(rq_dashboard.blueprint, url_prefix="/rq")
@app.route("/")
def hello():
return "Hello World!"
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
