Root Cause

db = SQLAlchemy() was created in a module but db.init_app(app) was never called, or a different app instance is active.

generic

中文

在模块中创建了 db = SQLAlchemy()，但从未调用 db.init_app(app)，或当前激活的是另一个 app 实例。

Workarounds

  1. 95% success 
    db = SQLAlchemy()
def create_app():
    app = Flask(__name__)
    db.init_app(app)
    return app
  2. 90% success 
    app = create_app()
with app.app_context():
    db.create_all()

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 90% fail

    Instance still lacks the app binding.

  2. 85% fail

    Creates two instances; models attach to the wrong one.
