Flask Eureka Integration

How to

Install package using:

pip install flask-eureka

And then, in your python project:

    from flask import Flask
    from flask_eureka import Eureka

    app = Flask(__name__)

    # do 

    eureka = Eureka(app)
    eureka.register_service(name="my-flask-service")

    app.run()

In addition to this, the Eureka defaul blueprint eureka_bp offered by the library must be added to your application:

    from flask_eureka.eureka import eureka_bp
    app.register_blueprint(eureka_bp)

Open your eureka discovery service, and the application will be shown as my-flask-service.
