I was trying to create a simple form using html and python, and I found the flask library helpful for that, but it seems I did something wrong.
file: login.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<!-- HTML template for the login form -->
<form method="post" action="/login">
<label for="username">Username:</label><br>
<input type="text" id="username" name="username"><br>
<label for="password">Password:</label><br>
<input type="password" id="password" name="password"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
file: app.py
from flask import Flask, render_template, request
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/')
def home():
return render_template('login.html')
@app.route('/login', methods=['POST'])
def login():
# Get the username and password from the form submission
username = request.form['username']
password = request.form['password']
# Validate the username and password
if username == 'admin' and password == 'secret':
return 'Logged in successfully'
else:
return 'Invalid username or password'
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(debug=True)
Using my vscode terminal, I typed python app.py and got a massive error log:
