Connecting to sqlite3 database from Flask application and printing data on a webpage
Question
I'm using sqlite3 database, conda environment and python Flask to create a simple web app that displays the users from a db table.
from flask import Flask, render_template
import sqlite3
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("/")
def index():
db = sqlite3.connect("data.db", check_same_thread=False)
rows = db.execute("SELECT * FROM users").fetchall()
db.commit()
return render_template("index.html", rows=rows)
index.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>Users</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Users</h1>
<ul>
{% for row in rows %}
<li>{{row["name"]}}, {{row["email"]}}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</body>
</html>
There's no error but when running the app on localhost no list is displayed on the page. There's only the heading and the bullet point. So I guess db.execute is returning an empty object.
Can anyone please tell me what's going wrong? Thanks!

You have to open cursor before fetch result
def index():
db = sqlite3.connect("data.db")
cursor = db.cursor()
rows = cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM users").fetchall()
cursor.close()
return render_template("index.html", rows=rows)
ps rows is not dictionary it is tuple , use zip to convert to dict : if you have just two colums in users rows=[dict(zip(('name', 'email'), row)) for row in rows]
