general, but there are a couple of things you can do to improve that
experience:
1. create your application in a function and register modules on it.
1. create your application in a function and register blueprints on it.
That way you can create multiple instances of your application with
different configurations attached which makes unittesting a lot
easier. You can use this to pass in configuration as needed.

If you are already using packages and blueprints for your application
(:ref:`blueprints`) there are a couple of really nice ways to further improve
the experience. A common pattern is creating the application object when
the module is imported. But if you move the creation of this object,
the blueprint is imported. But if you move the creation of this object,
into a function, you can then create multiple instances of this and later.
So why would you want to do this?
@ -32,18 +32,18 @@ The idea is to set up the application in a function. Like this::
from yourapplication.views.admin import admin
from yourapplication.views.frontend import frontend
app.register_module(admin)

app.register_blueprint(admin)
app.register_blueprint(frontend)
return app
The downside is that you cannot use the application object in the modules
The downside is that you cannot use the application object in the blueprints
at import time. You can however use it from within a request. How do you
get access the application with the config? Use
:data:`~flask.current_app`::
from flask import current_app, Module, render_template
admin = Module(__name__, url_prefix='/admin')
from flask import current_app, Blueprint, render_template
admin = Blueprint('admin', __name__, url_prefix='/admin')
@admin.route('/')

1. make it possible to pass in configuration values for unittests so that
you don't have to create config files on the filesystem
2. call a function from a module when the application is setting up so
2. call a function from a blueprint when the application is setting up so
that you have a place to modify attributes of the application (like
hooking in before / after request handlers etc.)
3. Add in WSGI middlewares when the application is creating if necessary.
