How to change mimetype for static xmltv.xml.gz file on local flask?

Question

Python

Faced a small problem on flask. The TV guide file 'xmltv.xml.gz' is located in the 'static' folder and is rummaged through the local network to home devices. Not all applications can read this file due to the headers that flask returns. The local server returns the file as 'Content-Type': 'text/xml; charset=utf-8'. Any sites on the Internet give files of this type as 'Content-Type': 'application/octet-stream'. Tell me where to correct the mimetype on flask so that the server gives the correct headers for compressed TV guide files and is such editing possible?

Answer 1

There is an option to use send_file You can use make_response

from flask import make_response
r = make_response(content)
r.mimetype = 'application/octet-stream'
return r

Well, or use send_file
