Flask Web Development with Python Tutorial - 3 - HTTP Methods

[ivanyosifov]

To simulate POST request on Firefox
1) Open Developer tools (F12)
2) Go to Network tab
3) Reload
4) Right-click page -> Edit and Resend
5) Change GET to POST -> Send
6) A new post request will appear in the Network tab
7) Click it and go to Response tab

if you don't want to use plugin there is simple form:
def bacon():
if request.method == 'POST':
return "Method used: POST"
else:
return '<form action="/bacon" method="POST"><input type="submit" value="submit"/></form>'

request.method is not working. Using python 2.7.6 . Here is the source code


from flask import Flask , request
web = fl(__name__)
@web.route('/')
def home():
return request.method
if __name__== '__main__':
web.run(debug=True)
