I am learning 'flask_web_development' in chapter 7 which encapsulate an app to a factory
def create_app(config_name):
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config.from_object(config[config_name])
config[config_name].init_app(app)
bootstrap.init_app(app)
mail.init_app(app)
moment.init_app(app)
db.init_app(app)
from .main import main as main_blueprint
app.register_blueprint(main_blueprint)
return app
It report error when run flask shell
In [21]: !flask shell
Usage: flask shell [OPTIONS] [IPYTHON_ARGS]...
Error: Failed to find Flask application or factory in module "flask". Use "FLASK_APP=flask:name to specify one.
flask run works properly
In [19]: !export FLASK_APP=flask.py; export FLASK_DEBUG=1
In [20]: !flask run &

flask shell
function well in the proceeding chapters which I set it to ipython with `flask-shell-ipython'
The details
In [26]: !export FLASK_APP=flasky.py
In [27]: !flask shell
Usage: flask shell [OPTIONS] [IPYTHON_ARGS]...
Error: Failed to find Flask application or factory in module "flask". Use "FLASK_APP=flask:name to specify one.
and the flasky.py
In [28]: !cat flasky.py
import os
import click
from flask_migrate import Migrate
from app import create_app, db
from app.models import User, Role
app = create_app(os.getenv('FLASK_CONFIG') or 'default')
migrate = Migrate(app, db)
@app.shell_context_processor
def make_shell_context():
return dict(db=db, User=User, Role=Role)
@app.cli.command()
@click.argument('test_names', nargs=-1)
def test(test_names):
"""Run the unit tests."""
import unittest
if test_names:
tests = unittest.TestLoader().loadTestsFromNames(test_names)

tests = unittest.TestLoader().discover('tests')
unittest.TextTestRunner(verbosity=2).run(tests)
Before 'flask run &' you are exporting 'FLASK_APP= flask.py '
Before 'flask shell' you are exporting 'FLASK_APP= flasky.py '
There is a difference in both the names.
