NoAppException: Could not locate a Flask application. You did not provide the "FLASK_APP" environment variable, and a "wsgi.py" or "app.py" module was not found in the current directory.
Usage: flask [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
 
 A general utility script for Flask applications.
 
 Provides commands from Flask, extensions, and the application. Loads the
 application defined in the FLASK_APP environment variable, or from a
 wsgi.py file. Setting the FLASK_ENV environment variable to 'development'
 will enable debug mode.
 
  $ export FLASK_APP=hello.py
  $ export FLASK_ENV=development
  $ flask run
 
Options:
 --version Show the flask version
 --help   Show this message and exit.
 
Commands:
 routes Show the routes for the app.
 run   Runs a development server.
 shell  Runs a shell in the app context.
renjg@renjg-HP-Compaq-Pro-6380-MT:~/WorkSpace/python/django/flask$ flask run --help
Usage: flask run [OPTIONS]
 
 Run a local development server.
 
 This server is for development purposes only. It does not provide the
 stability, security, or performance of production WSGI servers.
 
 The reloader and debugger are enabled by default if FLASK_ENV=development
 or FLASK_DEBUG=1.
 
Options:
 -h, --host TEXT         The interface to bind to.
 <strong> -p, --port INTEGER       The port to bind to.</strong>
 --cert PATH           Specify a certificate file to use HTTPS.
 --key FILE           The key file to use when specifying a
                 certificate.
 --reload / --no-reload     Enable or disable the reloader. By default
                 the reloader is active if debug is enabled.
 --debugger / --no-debugger   Enable or disable the debugger. By default
                 the debugger is active if debug is enabled.
 --eager-loading / --lazy-loader
                 Enable or disable eager loading. By default
                 eager loading is enabled if the reloader is
                 disabled.
 --with-threads / --without-threads
                 Enable or disable multithreading.
 --help             Show this message and exit.
