This is Flask app context
app = Flask(__name__)
with app.app_context():
# insert code here
Most of the use cases of app context involves having 'app' initialized on the same script or importing app from the base.
My application is structured as the following:
# application/__init__.py
def create_app(config):
app = Flask(__name__)
return app
# manage.py
from application import create_app
from flask_script import Manager
manager = Manager(create_app)
manager.add_command("debug", Server(host='0.0.0.0', port=7777))
This might be really trivial issue, but how I should call 'with app.app_context()' if my application is structured like this?

Flask-Script calls everything inside the test context, so you can use current_app and other idioms:
The Manager runs the command inside a Flask test context. This means that you can access request-local proxies where appropriate, such as current_app, which may be used by extensions.
http://flask-script.readthedocs.org/en/latest/#accessing-local-proxies
So you don't need to use with app.app_context() with Manager scripts. If you're trying to do something else, then you'd have to create the app first:
from application import create_app
app = create_app()
with app.app_context():
# stuff here
