不支持Gunicorn按文件名导入（模块）

Question

I have newly created a container ubuntu and installed the required packages in the virtual environment. Then I have executed the pre-existing python service code by python path/to/my/file/X.py (in virualenv) it's working fine. So I have executed with gunicorn as gunicorn -b 0.0.0.0:5000 path/to/my/file/X:app (in virualenv) but I'm getting the following error

2015-11-11 16:38:08 [19118] [INFO] Starting gunicorn 17.5

Can anyone help me fix the ImportError: Import by filename is not supported . Why it is coming? I have implemented gunicorn in other server, it is working fine there.

Answer 1

就像错误说的那样：你不能通过文件路径引用Python模块，你必须通过从PYTHONPATH中的目录开始的点模块路径来引用它。

gunicorn -b 0.0.0.0:5000 path.inside.virtualenv.X:app

Answer 2

I faced very same issue, I got it worked using --chdir /path/to/project

gunicorn -b :5000 --chdir /path/to/project X:app

Hope this helps

Just for the googlers, I also had this error when i accidentally ran my application using gunicorn -paste instead of gunicorn --paste. gunicorn did not error, but the api.ini was not found and it threw the 'Import by filename is not supported' error.
