防止Flask在URL中显示'.html'

Question

I'm working on a project, using Flask. Apart from the index page, all other pages have '.html' extension displayed at the end of their URL (for example 127.0.0.1:5000/mypage.html ), which is normal. For some reasons, i do not want the extension displayed, i prefer the URL displays with the extension (like this 127.0.0.1:5000/mypage . Here's what i have:

Flask

@app.route('/mypage', methods=['POST', 'GET'])
def mypage():
    return render_template('/mypage.html')

HTML

<a href="mypage.html">Mypage</a></li>

I'll appreciate any help with this.

Answer 1

Following the documentation: Creating URLs in Flask , you can do this like this, and you are pretty much good to go.

Please Note: Do not use / inside the render_template

@app.route('/mypage', methods=['POST', 'GET'])
def index():        
    return render_template('mypage.html')

If you want to hardcode the url, you can use url_for() . But as the documentation says:

Flask can generate URLs using the url_for() function of the flask package. Hardcoding URLs in the templates and view functions is a bad practice .

HTML

<a href="/mypage">Mypage</a></li>
