Flask Debugger + Hot-reloader watchdog Logs

I have a run configuration for a Flask app running inside a docker container. The app runs and debugs without problems, but when I try to use the FLASK_DEBUG ✅ setting, I get an endless stream of debug logs. This crowds out custom logs and makes debugging impossible.

The following is printed on repeat, non-stop. (Only occurs when FLASK_DEBUG is enabled)

"DEBUG watchdog.observers.inotify_buffer in /home/python/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/watchdog/observers/inotify_buffer.py line no 57 : in-event <InotifyEvent: src_path=b'/opt/project/logs/app_debug.log', wd=14, mask=IN_MODIFY, cookie=0, name=app_debug.log>"

HOW CAN I DISABLE THIS LOG? It has rendered development impossible.

Run Configuration Details:

• Target: my Flask application
• Additional options: --host=0.0.0.0 --port:8000
• FLASK_ENV: development
