Project description
flask-objectid-converter
Provides url converters for flask to support pymonogs ObjectIDs
I found the snippet from here by Armin Ronacher but could not find a package for it.
Usage
- add the Converter to the flask app
- use it in routes
Add Converter to app:
The package defines two converters to use:
- ObjectIDConverter: stringify the id
- Base64ObjectIDConverter: produces smaller strings by encoding to base64
from flask import Flask
from flask_objectid_converter import ObjectIDConverter
app = Flask(__name__)
app.url_map.converters['objectid'] = ObjectIDConverter
Use in routes
@app.route('/users/<objectid:oid>')
def get_user(oid):
return User.objects.get(id=oid)
Throws 404 if the requested value cant be decoded
get route via url_for
from flask import url_for
url_for(get_user, oid=User.id)
Testing
python setup.py test
Possible extensions
Make the package a proper flask extension with init_app, encode, decode functions, configuration of conversion algorithm (specify alphabet)...
Changelog
- 1.0.0: Inital version. Encodes to base64 by default.
- 2.0.0: Provide two converter classes. A simple one and a base64 encoding one. Drop python2 support.
