I'm trying to get the data from this html form, through flask and store it in python variables so that I can access and process later.
In the python code I have req = request.formand that returns a dictionary which contains all the info I need but I can't acces it outside the form_input() function.
Is there anyway I can do this ?
Thanks
python code
from flask import Flask, request, redirect, render_template
app = Flask(__name__)
path = r'C:\Users\tiberiu.ghimbas\PycharmProjects\pythonProject\form.html'
lista = []
app.testing = True
client = app.test_client()
@app.route('/')
def home():
return render_template('form.html')
@app.route('/submit_form', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def form_input():
if request.method == "POST":
req = request.form
last_name = request.form['lname']
first_name = request.form['fname']
email = request.form['email']
department = request.form['departament']
data_angajare = request.form['data_angajare']
return redirect(request.url)
return render_template('form.html')
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
