Serving JS project via Flask application

Question

I'm currently working on getting the javascript project SVGnest to work locally. My optimal solution would be to execute the program via python commands or through an python port. However, I did not find any solution for that.

As a first step, I want to run a flask server now and host the application locally. For that, I've cloned the project and created the following server.py

#!/usr/bin/env python

import flask


# Create the application.
APP = flask.Flask(__name__, template_folder=".", static_folder=".")


@APP.route('/')
def index():
    """ Displays the index page accessible at '/'
    """
    return flask.render_template('index.html')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    APP.debug=True
    APP.run()

The server starts at localhost, however, a lot of files cannot be loaded:

127.0.0.1 - - [27/Jan/2022 13:22:17] "GET /font/latolatinfonts.css HTTP/1.1" 404 -
127.0.0.1 - - [27/Jan/2022 13:22:17] "GET /style.css HTTP/1.1" 404 -
127.0.0.1 - - [27/Jan/2022 13:22:17] "GET /util/pathsegpolyfill.js HTTP/1.1" 404 -
127.0.0.1 - - [27/Jan/2022 13:22:17] "GET /util/domparser.js HTTP/1.1" 404 -
127.0.0.1 - - [27/Jan/2022 13:22:17] "GET /util/matrix.js HTTP/1.1" 404 -
127.0.0.1 - - [27/Jan/2022 13:22:17] "GET /util/clipper.js HTTP/1.1" 404 -
127.0.0.1 - - [27/Jan/2022 13:22:17] "GET /util/parallel.js HTTP/1.1" 404 -
....

Seems like the server does not find the files, although they are in the same directory as the index.html. My directories are

• SVGNest
  • font/
  • img/
  • util/
  • index.html
  • server.py
  • style.css
  • svgnest.js -svgparser.js

Thanks for helping
