Could I mix this Python Flask tutorial to work with Vesta?

[Peter92]

I've got my old PHP website up and running, and now I'd like to try get my (WIP) Flask one hosted. I found a tutorial on how to do it (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/ ... ubuntu-vps), but I'd like to ask a couple of questions before I go and mess up my nice clean installation, since I'll have to modify it a bit for Vesta and I barely know what I'm doing haha.

1. Am I going to break anything by enabling mod_wsgi? (step 1)
2. When it says go to /var/www, would the Vesta equivalent be /home/user/web/site.com/public_html? (step 2)
3. FlaskApp.conf looks similar to site.com.apache2.conf, would it potentially use both (.apache2 for Vesta and that one for Flask), or is it likely it'll only use one? (step 4)

I did have a google on using Python with Vesta but there didn't seem to be a whole bunch of information about it.

Edit: In regards to #3, my friend (who knows Linux but not Flask) suggested create a new website in Vesta, upload it, edit .apache2.conf with values from the tutorial's FlaskApp.conf, then enable ssl support to generate the .apache2-le-ssl.conf file. Does that sound ok?

Yes, your friend suggestion is right. The tutorial is based off apache so you want to use your friends suggestion. Though, there is a slight tweaks to this suggestion.

After you tested your apache config file, you want to make it into a template and put it into the template folder on your system, example: https://github.com/serghey-rodin/vesta/ ... eb/apache2 - you will need both regular and ssl template.

Then pick the template from the UI. Otherwise, everytime vesta try to renew letsencrypt, it will blow away your apache/flask config.

Thanks for the reply, that doesn't sound so bad :) I also wasn't aware what the templates were for before so that may be helpful to know for things like a custom php.ini for my old site.
