how to create flask api in python code example

Example 1: simple flask app

# Extremely simple flask application, will display 'Hello World!' on the screen when you run it
# Access it by running it, then going to whatever port its running on (It'll say which port it's running on).
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def hello_world():
    return 'Hello, World!'

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()

Example 2: how to make a flask server in python

# This is the code
# Find me on discord ZDev1#4511
# We shouldn't install flask in the terminal, it is already imported
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

# route
@app.route('/')
# route function
def home():
  # send 'hey!'
  return 'hey!'

# listen
if __name__ == "__main__":
  app.run(port=3000)
  # if you need to make it live debuging add 'debug=True'
  # app.run(port=3000, debug=True)
  
 # Hope you enjoyed ;)

Example 3: python flask rest api

from flask import Flask
from flask_restful import Resource, Api

app = Flask(__name__)
api = Api(app)

class HelloWorld(Resource):
    def get(self):
        return {'hello': 'world'}

api.add_resource(HelloWorld, '/')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

Example 4: python flask rest api

from flask import Flask
from flask_restful import reqparse, abort, Api, Resource

app = Flask(__name__)
api = Api(app)

TODOS = {
    'todo1': {'task': 'build an API'},
    'todo2': {'task': '?????'},
    'todo3': {'task': 'profit!'},
}


def abort_if_todo_doesnt_exist(todo_id):
    if todo_id not in TODOS:
        abort(404, message="Todo {} doesn't exist".format(todo_id))

parser = reqparse.RequestParser()
parser.add_argument('task')


# Todo
# shows a single todo item and lets you delete a todo item
class Todo(Resource):
    def get(self, todo_id):
        abort_if_todo_doesnt_exist(todo_id)
        return TODOS[todo_id]

    def delete(self, todo_id):
        abort_if_todo_doesnt_exist(todo_id)
        del TODOS[todo_id]
        return '', 204

    def put(self, todo_id):
        args = parser.parse_args()
        task = {'task': args['task']}
        TODOS[todo_id] = task
        return task, 201


# TodoList
# shows a list of all todos, and lets you POST to add new tasks
class TodoList(Resource):
    def get(self):
        return TODOS

    def post(self):
        args = parser.parse_args()
        todo_id = int(max(TODOS.keys()).lstrip('todo')) + 1
        todo_id = 'todo%i' % todo_id
        TODOS[todo_id] = {'task': args['task']}
        return TODOS[todo_id], 201

##
## Actually setup the Api resource routing here
##
api.add_resource(TodoList, '/todos')
api.add_resource(Todo, '/todos/<todo_id>')
