Flask render_template context not showing in URL












0















I am trying to pass params to the URL in flask, but I can not get them to show up for anything.



@logout.route('/logout')
def logout_page():
current_provider = current_oauth_user.get_provider()
return render_template('index.html', provider=current_provider)


I expect to see /logout?provider=facebook but I just get /logout



Right now I am doing this:



@logout.route('/logout')
def logout_page():
provider = request.args.get('provider')
current_provider = current_oauth_user.get_provider()
if not provider and current_provider:
return redirect(url_for('logout.logout_page',
provider=current_provider))
return render_template('index.html')


but that just seems so terrible.

    You have some misunderstandings. Your backend cannot control route, but browser can. What you see /logout is that browser accesses. You cannot directly change it to /logout?provider=facebook. Even redirect is just asking browser to redirect, browser itself has the control to choose redirect or not.

You should return some value using '/logout' path.
So at first, you use render_template(index.html) under def main(). Then you create def logout_page() and return some value ( in your case is current_provider).



@app.route('/')
def main():
return render_template('index.html')

@app.route('/logout')
def logout_page():
current_provider = current_oauth_user.get_provider()
return current_provider

if __name__=="__main__":
app.run(port=8000)
