Where to store database connection details in Flask?

Question

Flask

Greetings.
There is a web application. Now the database accesses are stored in the application file. The project files will be uploaded to Github. Therefore, the question arose about the safe storage of sensitive data. You can add them to a separate file, pull them from it, and add that file to .gitignore. What would you advise in this situation?

Answer 1

You have already named one option - an imported file that is not included in the turnip. The second option is environment variables.
