def connect_db():

    rv.row_factory = sqlite3.Row
    return rv

def init_db():
    with app.app_context():
        db = get_db()
        with app.open_resource('schema.sql', mode='r') as f:
            db.cursor().executescript(f.read())
        db.commit()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()

运行报错：

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/henry/dev/myproject/flaskr/flaskr.py", line 23, in <module>
    app.run()
NameError: name 'app' is not defined
[Finished in 1.5s]

解决：
添加

app = Flask(__name__)

全部代码：

# flaskr.py

import os
import sqlite3
from flask import Flask, request, session, g, redirect, url_for, abort, \
    render_template, flash

app = Flask(__name__)

def connect_db():
    rv = sqlite3.connect(app.config['DATABASE'])
    rv.row_factory = sqlite3.Row
    return rv

def init_db():
    with app.app_context():
        db = get_db()
        with app.open_resource('schema.sql', mode='r') as f:
            db.cursor().executescript(f.read())
        db.commit()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()
