Bottle mysql connect - python

I am trying connect to mysql in bottle framework but with no success. Error tells me to give second argument to route but I do not want additional argument in url.
import bottle
import bottle_mysql
from bottle import route, run, template, app
app = bottle.Bottle()
plugin = bottle_mysql.Plugin(dbuser='root', dbpass='toor', dbname='database')
app.install(plugin)
#route('/show/<a>')
def show(a, db):
db.execute('SELECT * FROM table WHERE a > "%d"', (a,))
return template('Hello {{name}}, how are you?', name=a)
run(host='192.168.1.19', port=8080, debug=True)
Error:
TypeError('show() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)',)

You may want to create db as a global variable and remove it as a parameter for the function show() or possibly make it an optional variable

The author of bottle-mysql says :
to automatically detect routes that need a database connection,
the plugin searches for route callbacks that require a db keyword
argument (configurable) and skips routes that do not.
Each route needs to be configured as belonging to the app or the app's plugin can't send data via that route.
So you do need the "app." in #app.route('/show/<a>')
And your run statement on the last line needs to specify the app too otherwise it won't recognise the routes belonging to the app.
run(app, host='192.168.1.19', port=8080, debug=True)

As others have responded, you need to change:
#route('/show/<a>')
to:
#app.route('/show/<a>')
But this is not the only change you need to make to solve the issue, you also need to change:
run(host='192.168.1.19', port=8080, debug=True)
to:
app.run(host='192.168.1.19', port=8080, debug=True)
Unfortunately this last part is not clear in the documentation and took a bit of guess work to figure out, but it's actually pretty obvious actually because if you just call run without the app. prefix, you're basically running a new bottle instance, which will result in 404 errors tying to access your routes.

How to run server in development mode with flask?

I am learning to use flask and I want to run the server for an application in development mode, for this I do the following:
app = Flask(__name__)
if __name__=="__main__":
os.environ["FLASK_ENV"] = "development"
app.run(debug=True)
When I run I get the following in the terminal:
enter image description here
Environment:development does not appear to me as I understand it should appear. In fact, before doing this I don't get Environment:production either, I don't know what's going on. As a consequence, every time I want to see the changes that I am making in the code, I have to stop the server and run it again since the changes are not seen when refreshing the page.
If you're goal is for the application to restart each time code changes are saved, it shouldn't require any more than the following:
app = Flask(__name__)
if __name__=="__main__":
app.run(debug=True)
If you want to see what all your app config variables are set to by default, you can add the following line above app.run
print(app.config)
If you wanted to change your environment to production, change the 'ENV' variable after you initialize app
app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['ENV'] = 'production'
if __name__=="__main__":
app.run(debug=True)

Can I invoke controller outside Flask server startup?

I'm attempting to create a simple model view controller pattern using Python and Flask. I add a new controller but it appears the routes are not being invoked.
server.py:
if __name__ == '__main__':
TicTacToeController()
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=80)
This class is defined in a new file:
class TicTacToeController :
#app.route('/ttt')
def ttt(self):
return render_template('home-tic-tac-toe.html')
Error when try to visit route '/ttt':
Not Found
The requested URL was not found on the server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.
Defining #app.route('/ttt') in server.py the route '/' is accessible. How to add the controller mappings in a new class that is separate to the main server class ( server.py ) ?
All your functions with #app.route need to be defined before calling app.run. Once you call app.run that line will run forever as it's now serving requests. Put it at the bottom.
You also don't need to put your routes inside classes. Just def ttt(): at the global level.

Python Flask app route is not working well

I tried to find a solution for my problem in other questions but I couldn't.
I downloaded the python flask and made my first flask app and it ran fine.
Here is the code:
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
#app.route("/")
def index():
return "Hello, world!"
When I ran my second file where I had added an app.route ("/ david") and followed the same procedure again, refreshed it and nothing changed.
That is to say, I was going to / david and I get an URL error
Here is my second file
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
#app.route("/")
def index():
return "Hello, world!"
#app.route("/david")
def david():
return "Hello, David!"
I tried the same with other files which have some added routes and the result is the same as the first file
Thanks for your answers, I hope to solve my problem.
You did not run the app. What you did is just create a structure for flask, but did not start the server.
Just add:
app.run()
To the bottom of the file and it will work. It will with start the flask server at http://localhost:5000.
By default, flask runs on port 5000.
It can be changed by:
app.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=xxxx)
0.0.0.0 means it accepts request from anywhere on the port specified.
Make sure you have all the permissions and nothing else is running if you want it to run on port 80.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
I had the same issue. Try first by restarting your IDE; this worked for me. If that doesn't work, try clearing your ports for Windows:
Open Task manager
Click on the “Processe” tab
Enable the "PID" column: View -> Select Columns -> Check the box for PID
Find the PID (in your case, 5000 - flask default port) and click “END PROCESS"

Combining resources in Python with Flask

I' trying to combine two independent Flask apps like the example below:
from geventwebsocket import WebSocketServer, Resource
...
server = WebSocketServer(('', 8080), Resource({
'/': frontend,
'/one': flask_app_one,
'/two': flask_app_two}))
server.serve_forever()
Inside each Flask app I declare the full path, isn't that suppose to be relative path, inside flask_app_one:
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
#app.route('/one/ping')
def ping():
return 'hello\n'
Why I should specify in #app.route('/one/ping') instead of just #app.route('/ping') since all traffic to /one will be forwarded to the corresponding app?
Let me know if you need any additional info I kept my example clean
Thank you
Finally I have managed to do it with the so called Application Dispatching and the resources found in this page:
http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/0.10/patterns/appdispatch/#app-dispatch
Thanks

Changing URLs after deploying Flask app

So, I have a flask application that works well when it's not deployed. Imagine it has pages for /index/ and /home/ and /home/field/. Now that I have deployed the app using Apache and mod_wsgi, it needs to have a prefix for every URL.
Now, it should look like /newapp/index/ and /newapp/home/ and /newapp/home/field/.
So, I changed all of the URLs to include the new /newapp/ prefix, but the only URL that works with it is the original /index/ URL. All of the others return a
Not Found The requested URL was not found on the server.
in the browser when I click for that URL. I definitely handle that route in my main.py, so I don't know why it would not be found.
Anyone know what is going on?
EDIT: adding some code
Basically I changed all my code in main.py from:
Original:
#app.route('/')
#app.route('/index/', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def index():
#Stuff
#app.route('/home/')
def farms():
#More stuff
#app.route('/home/<selector>')
def fields(selector):
#Further stuff
To....
New Code
#app.route('/newapp/')
#app.route('/newapp/index/', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def index():
#Stuff
#app.route('/newapp/home/')
def farms():
#More stuff
#app.route('/newapp/home/<selector>')
def fields(selector):
#Further stuff
I did this because the domain I am using already has another Flask app, so I had to differentiate between the two. Also, I expect there to be more flask apps in the future, so this newapp will end up being an identifier for any given flask app.
I changed main.py as well has all of my hrefs in my templates. So, the hrefs went from
href=/index/
to
href=/newapp/index/
And, I get the error that I posted above whenever I try to click on a link
Further info:
So, checking out the apache error logs one error says, File does not exist: /var/www/flask_util.js, because in my main.py I call from flask_util_js import FlaskUtilJs. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the URL routing, but it might
You don't need to add the prefix in your code.
Say you have code like
#app.route('/hi', methods = ['GET','POST'])
def myIndex():
return "Hello World!", 200
And you set your alias like to deploy it to www.myserver.com/app/
WSGIScriptAlias /app /var/www/myDir/myApp/app.wsgi
the server should automatically map www.myserver.com/app/hi to /hi in your application.
However if you set the mapping to
#app.route('/newapp/hi', methods = ['GET','POST'])
def myIndex():
return "Hello World!", 200
You WSGI app would only receive the call for /hi (server strips away the prefix) so it would find no matching Path and return not found.
