Custom request-scoped global proxy with Flask 2.3

[mbarakaja]

I have an application using Flask 2.1.3. The app has a couple of global variables that proxy values to the request context.

from flask import _request_ctx_stack
from werkzeug.local import LocalProxy

current_org = LocalProxy(
    lambda: getattr(_request_ctx_stack.top, "current_org", None)
)
current_identity = LocalProxy(
    lambda: getattr(_request_ctx_stack.top, "current_identity", None)
)
current_schema = LocalProxy(
    lambda: getattr(_request_ctx_stack.top, "current_schema", None)
)

# This is how values are assigned in a single place
_request_ctx_stack.top.current_org = value
...

---

The documentation says we should be using the g global proxy, but my application references the global names I posted above, and I would like to avoid a big refactoring.

Is it still possible to have custom global proxies bound to the current request context in Flask 2.3?

Why not simply change your lookup callback to get it from g instead of the request ctx stack?

current_org = LocalProxy(lambda: g.get('current_org'))

Ohh... Thank you so much. This worked for me.
I clearly didn't understand how this worked.
