Thank you for the reply. I'm trying to avoid storing my actual password in more files that are needed, is it possible to make my flask application have access to the environmental variable without my having to store the actual value in the uwsgi config?
For example, can I just tell UWSGI what var I want to export without specifying the value, or perhaps, does UWSGI not even need to export the variable, the application can just read it anyway?

It depends where have you set this, is it sources by uWSGI init script? You can check if uWSGI workers have this variable in environment by reading /proc/:pid/environ.
You can instruct uWSGI to set any env variables for you, using --env option. So yes, "env = key=value" in uWSGI ini file will work.
I would suggest to do it this way, it's easier to maintain your app this way.

I have the code for flask to read the environmental variable but it doesnt seem to be able to get it.My server:export myvar=testMy application:app.config.from_envvar('myvar')However, is there something else I have to do with UWSGI? For example, do I need to do something like this so my app can access the env var because it can't seem to see it at the moment.env = myvar=test
