[](https://colab.research.google.com/github/Partycode/flask-ngrok3/blob/master/examples/flask_ngrok3_example.ipynb)
[](https://badge.fury.io/py/flask-ngrok3)
The successor for [flask-ngrok](https://github.com/gstaff/flask-ngrok) and [flask-ngrok2](https://github.com/MohamedAliRashad/flask-ngrok2) for making demo Flask apps from personal machine.
## Compatability
Python 3.6+ is required.
## Installation
```bash
pip install flask-ngrok3
```
### Inside Jupyter / Colab Notebooks
Notebooks have [an issue](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51180917/python-flask-unsupportedoperation-not-writable) with newer versions of Flask, so force an older version if working in these environments.
```bash
!pip install flask==0.12.2
```
See the [example notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/github/Partycode/flask-ngrok3/blob/master/examples/flask_ngrok3_example.ipynb) for a working example.
## Quickstart
1. Import with ```from flask_ngrok3 import run_with_ngrok```
2. Add `run_with_ngrok(app)` to make your Flask app available upon running
3. Now you can run with your custom host `app.run(host='192.168.1.5')`
4. Also, you can get ngrok address on startup  
```python
# flask_ngrok3_example.py
from flask import Flask
from flask_ngrok3 import run_with_ngrok, get_host
app = Flask(__name__)
run_with_ngrok(app)  # Start ngrok when app is run
@app.route("/")
def hello():
    return "Hello World!"
def get_ngrok_host():
    print(f"ngrok host is: {get_host()}")
app.before_first_request(get_ngrok_host)  # Register function for run before the first request
if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()
```
Running the example:
```bash
python flask_ngrok3_example.py
 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)
 * Running on http://<random-address>.ngrok.io
 * Traffic stats available on http://127.0.0.1:4040 
ngrok host is: http://<random-address>.ngrok.io
127.0.0.1 - - [...] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 -
