Stream console output to Website

Stream console output to Website

Hi,

 

I wrote a little script that takes some time to execute, but shows it's
progress in the console. Well, I need to use this script in Flask and I'm
trying to get the console output streamed to the website. I searched and I
have readt a bit trough the web, but I couldn't find a simple explanation
how to do this.

 

Here is what I have already written:

Sorry if it is a simple question, it is my first object orientated python
script and I'm new to programming.

 

Thanks in advance

 

Dennis

There are 2 ways:


   1. A javascript function polls the backend for progress
   2. You make a websocket/server-sent-events connection, so you can stream
   to the frontend data

Or maybe this:

I wrote a very simple sort of shared clipboard server in flask which 
does something similar to what you want: the browser polls the server 
frequently, via a bit of javascript which gets the current status from a 
special url, and then refreshes the page if there has been one:

You might find it useful.
