I have a small log browser. It retrieves and displays a list of previously logged records depending on user\'s input. It does not update anything.
The code is very s
The common way to do P/R/G in Flask is this:
@app.route('/log', methods=('GET', 'POST'))
def log():
form = LogForm()
if form.validate_on_submit():
# process the form data
# you can flash() a message here or add something to the session
return redirect(url_for('log'))
# this code is reached when the form was not submitted or failed to validate
# if you add something to the session in case of successful submission, try
# popping it here and pass it to the template
return render_template('log.html', form=form)
By staying on the POSTed page in case the form failed to validate WTForms prefills the fields with the data entered by the user and you can show the errors of each field during form rendering (usually people write some Jinja macros to render a WTForm easily)
