[Flask] Storage Context

[Gergely Polonkai]

I never used web2py, but from the documentation it looks like some basic
caching functionality. If this is the case, you should check Flask-Caching
(a fork of the unmaintained Flask-Cache). It can store the cache in memory
or in a file, or connect to memcached, Redis, and a bunch of other storage
backends.

(Disclaimer: i’m one of the maintainers of that package).

If, however, you don’t need a persistent(ish) cache, the simplest solution
is probably to set g.my_storage to a dictionary and use the dictionary
methods to access it.

Best,
Gergely
