Yes, Blueprints are the right way to do it. What you are trying to do can be achieved like this:
Main.py
from flask import Flask
from AccountAPI import account_api
app = Flask(__name__)
app.register_blueprint(account_api)
@app.route("/")
def hello():
return "Hello World!"
if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
AccountAPI.py
from flask import Blueprint
account_api = Blueprint('account_api', __name__)
@account_api.route("/account")
def accountList():
return "list of accounts"
If this is an option, you might consider using different URL prefixes for the different APIs/Blueprints in order to cleanly separate them. This can be done with a slight modification to the above register_blueprint
call:
app.register_blueprint(account_api, url_prefix='/accounts')
