I'm trying to pass arguments to an example wsgi application, :

config_file = sys.argv[1]

def application(env, start_response):
    start_response('200 OK', [('Content-Type','text/html')])
    return [b"Hello World %s" % config_file]

And run:

uwsgi --http :9090 --wsgi-file test_uwsgi.py  -???? config_file # argument for wsgi script

Any smart way I can achieve it? Couldn't find it in uwsgi docs. Maybe there is another way of providing some parameters to the wsgi application? (env. variables are out of scope)

python args:

--pyargv "foo bar"

sys.argv
['uwsgi', 'foo', 'bar']

uwsgi options:

--set foo=bar

uwsgi.opt['foo']
'bar'
