python web论坛,用于Python功能的Web UI

I have a python function that takes a series of integers as inputs and returns another series of integers. I'd like to distribute the function in the form of a web app.

The landing page should consist of a web form with a series of integer fields (with input validation), drop-down fields and a submit button. The submit button triggers the said python function and returns the results which should be rendered in an html table.

I am a complete novice with web development, but after some research it appears that flask is the most appropriate framework for me to use for the above task. My problem is that the documentation I have encountered so far deals primarily with blog development and therefore not particularly relevant for the type of app I am after.

I am therefore seeking any pointers (sample code, books, articles) or guidance to get me started with my task. In its simplest form, what I'm looking for is:

web form that takes one integer (1-10) and a second integer (1-5) from a drop down list

web form returns error if user enters invalid integer (<1, >10)

on submit button python function calculates the sum of the two integers

result is presented on the web form

All guidance appreciated.

Well it's quite simple really, it's all about how you present a form in html template, getting your view to get the form data, and passing the context back to the template.

I've quickly mocked a sample like what you want (nothing fancy, just back to the basic and show you how these work together), it's only a few lines of code in 2 files main.py (core file, like a view logic) and a template calculation.html:

main.py

from flask import Flask

from flask import render_template

from flask import request

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/", methods=['GET', 'POST'])

def calculation():

result = 0

error = ''

# you may want to customize your GET... in this case not applicable

if request.method=='POST':

# get the form data

first = request.form['first']

second = request.form['second']

if first and second:

try:

# do your validation or logic here...

if int(first)>10 or int(first)<1:

raise ValueError

result = int(first) + int(second)

except ValueError:

# you may pass custom error message as you like

error = 'Please input integer from 1-10 only.'

# you render the template and pass the context result & error

return render_template('calculation.html', result=result, error=error)

if __name__ == "__main__":

app.run()

templates/calculation.html

{% if result %}

Answer is: {{ result }}

{% endif %}

{% if error %}

{{ error }}

{% endif %}

Hopefully these are self explanatory and you can get to understand how to work with the basic of Flask and forms etc.

Read Flask Doc, and try to follow through, they are quite simple really and once you nail the basic, you may start looking for intermediate and advance topic.

FYI, there is an extension for WTForms called Flask-WTF, it is very handy when dealing with forms, although nothing stops you just doing everything in plain html form like above code.

Hope this helps and I wish you like the simplicity and flexiblity Flask brings you.
