Extensions¶
Just as the Snapcraft extensions are designed to simplify Snap creation, Rockcraft extensions are crafted to expand and modify the user-provided rockcraft project file, aiming to minimise the boilerplate code when initiating a new rock.
The flask-framework extension¶
The Flask extension streamlines the process of building Flask application rocks.
It facilitates the installation of Flask application dependencies, including
Gunicorn, in the rock image. Additionally, it transfers your project files to
/flask/app within the rock image.
A statsd-exporter is installed alongside the Gunicorn server to export Gunicorn server metrics.
The django-framework extension¶
The Django extension is similar to the flask-framework extension but tailored for Django applications.
