After creating a working flask app on my laptop, which uses the library Matplotlib, i moved the app to my raspberry.
The app itself worked , but the matplotlib plot did not show, due to a parameter that was used : pad = none in plt.title. This did not give an issue on my laptop but it did on the pi. Removing this solved the issue.
Another issue I needed to tackle was starting the app at reboot. My first option of using the script start in : crontab -e did not work. The app was not started. using this command: python3 /var/www/warmte/xxx.py &
Moving the line to rc.local did the job:
- sudo nano /etc/rc.local
- add the line: python3 /var/www/warmte/xxx.py & before the exit 0
