How to use argparse with gunicorn when deploying a flask app?

Viewed 220

I am trying to deploy a flask app that uses the argparse module to add arguments for a pytorch model that dictates particular options for how the model should run.

Everything runs fine locally however when trying to run my flask app with gunicorn app:app on a ubuntu ec2 instance it looks like in addition gunicorn is trying to parse the arguments thrown in by argparse from the flask app.

If I don't use gunicorn, I run my application as follows:

    Sudo Python app.py

     * Serving Flask app "app" (lazy loading)
     * Environment: production
       WARNING: This is a development server. Do not use it in a production deployment.
       Use a production WSGI server instead.
     * Debug mode: off
     * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)

But if I try to run with gunicorn like this:

  Sudo gunicorn app:app

 

I get the following error :
