Flask Blueprint
Better way to create blueprint
Requirements:
Python 2.7 or higher
PIP installation
pip install flask-blueprint
Easy Installation
from flask_blueprint import Blueprint
from flask import Flask
flask_app = Flask(import_name, instance_relative_config=True)
Blueprint(app=flask_app, root_path=['path/to/module'])
flask.run()

Module routing
create a folder Home where you point your module directory
~/module-directory/
|-- /module_name
|-- __init__.py
|-- methods.py
|-- routes.py
NOTE:: __init__.py must be ALWAYS included in the folder in order to detect the model folder as a module
methods.py
from flask import make_response
class Methods:
@staticmethod
def index():
return make_response("Welcome module", 200)
@staticmethod
def create():
return make_response("Welcome POST method", 200)
@staticmethod
def update():
return make_response("Welcome PUT method", 200)
@staticmethod
def destroy():
return make_response("Welcome DELETE method", 200)
routing.py
from flask import Blueprint
from module.welcome.methods import Methods
""" blueprint module for url handler """
__method__ = Blueprint(__name__, __name__)
"""
ROUTES:
routing for base directory module
name, slug, function, methods
"""
__routes__ = [
("welcome", "/", Methods)
]
Variable Rules
http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/0.12/quickstart/#variable-rules
__routes__ = [
("posts", "/<int:post_id>", Methods)
]
from flask import make_response
class Methods:
@staticmethod
def index(post_id=None):
return make_response("get post ID: {}".format(post_id), 200)
@staticmethod
def create(name=None):
return make_response("POST method for post ID: {}".format(post_id), 200)
@staticmethod
def update(name=None):
return make_response("PUT method for post ID: {}".format(post_id), 200)
@staticmethod
def destroy(name=None):
return make_response("DELETE method for post ID: {}".format(post_id), 200)
Custom Routing using function
from flask import Blueprint
from module.welcome.methods import Methods
""" blueprint module for url handler """
__method__ = Blueprint(__name__, __name__)
"""
ROUTES:
routing for base directory module
name, slug, function, methods
"""
__routes__ = [
("welcome", "/", Methods.my_new_function, ['GET', 'POST', 'PUT', 'DELETE'])
]
