Flask

Creating Dynamic URLs in Flask with url_for()

Flask Tip:

In Flask, the url_for() function can be passed an argument to specify the variable part of a URL.

👇

# Flask View Function with Variable Routing (Python)
@stocks_blueprint.route('/stocks/<id>')
def stock_details(id):
    stock = Stock.query.filter_by(id=id).first_or_404()
    return render_template('stocks/stock_details.html', stock=stock)


# Jinja Template (HTML)
<ul>
  {% for stock in stocks %}
    <li>
      <a href="{{ url_for('stocks.stock_details', id=stock.id) }}">{{ stock.stock_symbol }}</a>
    </li>
  {% endfor %}
</ul>
