Flask-Classful

Flask-Classful is an extension that adds class-based views to Flask. Class-based views are a way to encapsulate specific context and behavior for routes and methods, complementing Flask's blueprints. They provide a more powerful system than Flask's own MethodView.

A Basic Example

This example defines a few routes by defining methods on a subclass of flask_classful.FlaskView.

# example.py
import random
from flask import Flask, abort
from flask_classful import FlaskView

quotes = [
    "A noble spirit embiggens the smallest man! ~ Jebediah Springfield",
    "If there is a way to do it better... find it. ~ Thomas Edison",
    "No one knows what he can do till he tries. ~ Publilius Syrus"
]

app = Flask(__name__)

class QuotesView(FlaskView):
    def index(self):
        return "<br>".join(quotes)

    def get(self, id):
        id = int(id)

        if id < len(quotes):
            return quotes[id]

        abort(404)

    def random(self):
        return random.choice(quotes)

QuotesView.register(app)
$ flask -A example run --debug
