[SOLVED] How to see which routes are being accessed with Flask gunicorn?

Issue

My flask api shows which routes are being accessed in the dev environment. But when running behind gunicorn in production, all route access info is suppressed.

On heroku, I can still see route access info with the heroku logs --tail command, but I just moved to EC2 and I am lost on where I might be able to get this info.

Is this something that I need to configure CloudWatch to be able to do?

Solution

You need to launch gunicorn with accesslog enabled.

To log to stdout, similar to the flask dev server (with those log entries visible in the console):

--access-logfile -

Or if you want to send the log entries to a file, provide a filename:

--access-logfile FILE
