Flask With Swagger Log input and output

Question

I am using Flask with swagger to create an apis system. Which has json as entry and exit points.

from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
Swagger(app)

@app.route('/some_url', methods=['POST'])
def get_output():
    return json.dumps({"status":"Success"})

The Input for above is eg

{"username":username,"password":password,}

Like Above I have several other methods either GET or POST.

Is it possible to log the entry exit points Eg as in Above Example I should be able to log following

• {"username":username,"password":password,} as entry point
• {"status":success} as exit point.

As well if some error should be able to log it. Looking forward for right way of doing same.

Answer 1

There are some decorators can help you to achieve that.

You can log request.path , request.head , request.args , request.form , request.data in @app.before_request .

You can log response.data in @app.after_request .
