I have an application which needs to connect to and RDS (postgres) proxy with IAM. It makes use of the create_app method.
def create_app():
connex_app = connexion.App(__name__, specification_dir=base_apispec_dir)
connex_app.add_api("swagger.yaml", strict_validation=True)
app = connex_app.app
app.config.from_object(get_configuration())
ma.init_app(app)
db.init_app(app)
return connex_app
In this post there is an example of how to do this with SQLalchemy, but how do we connect with Flask-SQLAlchemy. In the example they use the @event.listen_for() event from SQLalchemy, but for that I need the engine, which I do not have.
It is possible to get it from the SQLalchemy object, but this gives to following error: No application found. Either work inside a view function or push.
Does anyone know how to make this connection working so the IAM-token can be refreshed every time it expires or just before that?
