Hi, thanks, but a cookie / session-file is still created:

To ensure that the container is up and running, a healthcheck is periodically checking via http, restarting the container if neccessary. When checking the filesystem, we found that for each request, a session file is created. Healthcheck is done twice every 30secs, so we have about 5600 session files a day. (about 100k after a few days..) I looked at the sourcecode and found that in session.py, line 259 it looks like cookies should not be created for static resources - def open_session(self, app, request): cookie_val = request.cookies.get(app.session_cookie_name) if not cookie_val or '!' not in cookie_val: # Don't bother creating a cookie for static resources for sp in self.skip_paths: if request.path.startswith(sp): return None - unfortunately, in __init__.py, when setting up the session interface, skip_paths is empty and so a cookie gets created also for static resources (i'm no python hacker, so maybe i'm missing something) So my question is - is there an url that can be used for healthchecking, that does not create a session file on every check ? thanks a lot, Wilhelm Wurzer twyn group GmbH
