ImportError: No module named flask_basicauth

[oceanpad]

I had installed Flask-BasicAuth use:

sudo pip install Flask-BasicAuth

My code looks like this:

from flask import Flask, render_template
from flask_basicauth import BasicAuth

app = Flask(__name__)

app.config['BASIC_AUTH_USERNAME'] = 'john'
app.config['BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD'] = 'matrix'
app.config['BASIC_AUTH_FORCE'] = True

basic_auth = BasicAuth(app)

@app.route('/')
@basic_auth.required
def secret_view():
    return render_template('404.html')

if __name__ == '__main__':
  app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=3000)

But when I run it, The error is.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "run.py", line 2, in <module>
    from flask_basicauth import BasicAuth
ImportError: No module named flask_basicauth

Hey did you find a fix for this?

[vackosar]

@cartacioS why do you use app.config['BASIC_AUTH_FORCE'] = True and at the same time @basic_auth.required?

For me if I set the force option then I don't need to use required decorator.

Just ran into this. My application was written in python3, but I experienced the error after: sudo python app.py, which ran it with python2. I made sure that basicAuth was installed using: sudo pip3 install Flask-BasicAuth.
