Get response from Flask-RESTPlus in csv

Question

I have created and REST API using Flask-RESTPlus. I am getting response in json and its fine. Now I have a new requirement to specify Response content type as csv or json.

I checked API doc there is nothing mentioned !!

Is it possible to get reponse in csv using Flask-RESTPlus ??

Answer 1

I was able to get output in csv . It took some time though

@api.representation('text/csv') def data_csv(data, code, headers): '''Get result in csv ''' resp = make_response(convert_data(data), code) resp.headers.extend(headers) return resp
