A simple Flask extension extending Flask's core jsonify functionality to support JSON-Padded responses, using the callback specified in the querystring
Project description
# Flask-Jsonpify
Flask-Jsonpify is an extension to Flask's core jsonify function, returning
JSON-Padded responses when a callback is specified as request's arguments.
It's usage and implementation is the same as flask.jsonify, differing only when
a request has a `callback` specified in the request arguments, in which case
the response body is JSON-Padded, or JSONP, using the callback.
To add JSONP support to all routes which previously used flask.jsonify,
simply import jsonify from flask.ext.jsonpify instead of importing it from
flask. The arguments and responses are fully compatible. Alternatively,
import jsonpify from flask.ext.jsonpify to selectively support JSONP in certain places.
## Installation
Install the extension with one of the following commands:
$ easy_install flask-jsonpify
or alternatively if you have pip installed (which you should):
$ pip install flask-jsonpify
## Usage
The best way to use Flask-Jsonpify is to completely replace Flask's jsonify
with this module's jsonify function, as shown below. The method is fully
compatible.
```
from flask import Flask
from flask.ext.jsonpify import jsonify
app = Flask(__name__)
SECRET_KEY = "not actually a secret"
app.config.from_object(__name__)
@app.route("/")
def index():
return jsonify(user="lala")
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run(debug=True)
```
