How to cache a react page with static assets using Python?-CodePudding

I created a flask application that makes a GET request to

A react build will contain static folders to store CSS, js, and images.

3 directories, 18 files

Is there are any way to cache the contents from the static folders.

CodePudding user response：

serve_react_page here is returning what the user would see when they navigate to that page. Which includes links to files in /static.

That page has links to the static assets, and when it looks for them, it's asking your server for what's actually on for instance https://create-react-app-example.vercel.app/static/css/main.5f361e03.chunk.css.

But the browser wants to find it at http://0.0.0.0:5000/static/css/main.5f361e03.chunk.css which of course does not exist.

You could try to set up a route in your flask app, that any request to /static downloads the file from https://create-react-app-example.vercel.app and serves it cached to the client.
