How is you app being deployed? Is it being run behind a standard
webserver (eg, Apache), or within a Python based WSGI web-server? If
the latter, I would normally just pass in a command line paramater
pointing either to a config file or perhaps directly to the project
directory in your case.

Hey,
A question for the peanut gallery...
I'm writing a flask/bootstrap web app (not open sourced as yet) for
doing some scientific processing in a pipeline data processing
methodology. I want to write an example pipeline, but then have the
app be deployable in user space and use either a configured directory
or a dot-prefix directory for the data of that particular instance of
the app. I had imagined this could be like a "layer" over the top of
the core application layer, so that users could have their projects
side-by-side with the core application examples.
I'm now thinking maybe that's a bad idea, and it would be better just
to copy the sample projects into the users workspace.
In fact I think I've pretty much convinced myself given it took just
one sentence to say and seems immediately clear.
Are there any other paradigms in web apps for managing the application
state (other than packing everything into a database)? The data here
exists naturally in a fundamentally file-based paradigm, so I think it
makes sense to continue that mainly.
