Error importing module db: about build-a-saas-app-with-flask HOT 5 CLOSED

If you're using OSX you're probably running everything through the docker toolbox.

You'll need to use your docker machine IP address instead of localhost in a few places. Goto the config/settings.py file and do a find/replace on localhost to YOUR_DOCKER_MACHINE_IP.

You can find out your docker machine's IP address by running: docker-machine ip default.

In this case the error is likely due to it not being able to find postgres running on localhost.

For getting more informative errors when running CLI commands change this:
https://github.com/nickjj/build-a-saas-app-with-flask/blob/master/cli/cli.py#L37-L44

To remove the try/catch block by changing that to:

    if sys.version_info[0] == 2:
        name = name.encode('ascii', 'replace')
        mod = __import__('cli.commands.cmd_' + name,
                         None, None, ['cli'])

Also on a semi-related note, make sure you use named docker volumes instead of using a path in the docker-compose.yml file.

I created a gist the other day to help someone else on OSX. It contains a work flow for my previous comment as well as what I just mentioned above.

Let me know if this works for you:

Ok great it works now! had to replace the local hosts with the IP.

From the notes I followed it said to delete the lines regarding volumes for Mac users.
I'll try that solution out and let you know if I have any issues.

@eliehamouche Did it work? If so, please close this ticket.

from build-a-saas-app-with-flask.

Closing after 2+ weeks of inactivity, it's likely fixed. Please re-open it if it didn't.
