Writing "python .\app.py" or any other file name does nothing

Grasshopper Hops

Hi!
I have a code in python that compares csv’s using pandas etc, that I need to trigger every time a button is pressed in grasshopper (basically whenever it receives a True input).

I have done it before with a simple app.py pointAt on a circle and all that but now trying with a more complicated definition nothing seems to happen.

There’s code without the entire function in the middle:

import pandas as pd
# import numpy as np

import ghhops_server as hs
import rhino3dm
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)
hops = hs.Hops(app)


@hops.component(
    "/compare_csv",
    name="CompareCsv",
    description="Comparing Plot & Typos",
    inputs=[
        hs.HopsBoolean("b", "Boolean", "Run Comparison"),
    ],
)
def compare_csv(b):
    if b:

# pandas stuff here

        # Save Results
        dict_df.to_csv(result_csv, index=True)

    return print("File written successfully")

Again, I type python .\app.py in the terminal and simply nothing happens…

Please help!

Thanks,
Lev

OK I solved it myself, I’m such a noob.
If anyone sees this and needs the solution - you need to type “flask run” in the terminal.
