Hi,
I am also getting same issue.

ValueError: could not convert string to float: '1.0.2'

I ran into the same with version 1.1.2. I created a pull request to fix #3

A work around until then is:

import flask
flask.__version__ = 1.1
from flask_microservices import MicroServicesApp

Set the version attribute of flask to whatever the closest relative major version would be for what you have, so 1.0.2 would be 1.0

There may be a better workaround that's just something to try and help, I have no idea if modifying that number in that way will cause other problems but I'm sure there are issues one could run into arbitrarily modifying it.
