I am trying to deploy a Python/Flask application to PythonAnywhere, but I am receiving a, "Something went wrong" error. After checking the error log, I found this message, "FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'words.txt'". I have a word.txt file in my application which contains various different words (I am using it as a dictionary that my application reads from) and want to know how I can deploy a .txt file from PythonAnywhere? Every other file/folder that I upload seems to be accepted.
Here is my code:
Python
class Boggle():
def __init__(self):
self.words = self.read_dict("words.txt")
def read_dict(self, dict_path):
"""Read and return all words in dictionary."""
dict_file = open(dict_path)
words = [w.strip() for w in dict_file]
dict_file.close()
return words
def make_board(self):
"""Make and return a random boggle board."""
board = []
for y in range(5):
row = [choice(string.ascii_uppercase) for i in range(5)]
board.append(row)
return board
def check_valid_word(self, board, word):
"""Check if a word is a valid word in the dictionary and/or the boggle board"""
word_exists = word in self.words
valid_word = self.find(board, word.upper())
if word_exists and valid_word:
result = "ok"
elif word_exists and not valid_word:
result = "not-on-board"
else:
result = "not-word"
return result
Also here is a screenshot of my directory Photo of project directory
As you can see, the, "word.txt" file is in the root of the directory.
