Instantiate Spacy object only once in apache mod_wsgi environment

Question

myapp.py

----  import statements ---

parser = None

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/xxxxxx/yyy')

def markDealStatud():

    text = 'matthew honnibal created spacy library'

    parsedData = parser(text.decode("utf-8"))

    xxxxxxxxxxxxx

    xxxxxxxxxxxx


def initSpacy():

    global parser

    parser = English()

if __name__ == '__main__':

    initSpacy()

    app.run()​

if __name__ == 'myapp':

    initSpacy()

when i run this app in development mode, __main__ will execute and it will instantiate spacy only once and i will use that.

For production we are using apache server mod_wsgi configuration. similarly i want to instantiate it once(myapp) and use the same obj. In my configuration it is instantiating for each request. Suggest some solution plz.
