python, flask and mysql

Question

I would like help in just one thing

@app.route('/getdata', methods =['GET', 'POST'])
#@requires_auth
def get_data():

    config = {
        'user': 'user',
        'password': 'password.',
        'host': '127.0.0.1',
        'database': 'database',
        'raise_on_warnings': True,
        'use_pure': False,
    }

    cnx = mysql.connector.connect(**config)

    cur = cnx.cursor()

    cur.execute("SELECT hash FROM hash_files")


     rows = cur.fetchall()
     response = [row[0] for row in rows]

    return jsonify(response)


    cnx.close()

I get this error "tuple indices must be integers, not str" can someone help me please?

I got that error before, but now I have this one

Sorry for the long error, I didin't knew if you need it all so I send like this

I had de program working with sqlite3 but I needed to use mysql so to get all the data on the web api and the other program getting the data to an array and it's not working now

@ShwSvn you're trying to call the api using a different script and you're posting the trace back of that script. Please post the trace back from your original program. — anupsabraham, Oct 18 '17 at 21:31
The traceback you've posted says that you're trying to json decode the response you're getting from the API. When your API isn't returning you a json object at all. — anupsabraham, Oct 18 '17 at 21:32
The error seems to happen during the `mysql.connector.connect()` call. Do you perhaps have any unicode characters in the hostname? This seems to be an encoding error that happens while processing a failed connection attempt. — mata, Oct 18 '17 at 21:59

.fetchall() function returns a list of tuple. So row is a tuple and you can't do row['hash']. That is why you're getting the error tuple indices must be integers, not str.

To access the values in the tuple, you need to use index: row[0]

Edit:

For fixing the decode error, you need to read this. Since it is a long answer to post here and someone else has answered it very well, I'm not typing it all here.

Like that? I changed the post But know I'm getting the other error that I posted UnicodeDecodeError UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe3 in position 46: ordinal not in range(128) – ShwSvn Oct 18 '17 at 21:29

No, the stack trace shows that the error doesn't happen when getting the results but during `connect()` – mata Oct 18 '17 at 21:55
I don't know, I restarted the pycharm and it was fixed with this change of row[0] Thanks a lot to everyone – ShwSvn Oct 18 '17 at 22:09
