I'm currently working on a pyramid project, however I can't seem to submit POST data to the app from a form.
I've created a basic form such as:
<form method="post" role="form" action="/account/register">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="email">Email address:</label>
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="email" placeholder="you@domain.com">
<p class="help-block">Your email address will be used as your username</p>
</div>
<!-- Other items removed -->
</form>
and I have the following route config defined:
# projects __init__.py file
config.add_route('account', '/account/{action}', request_method='GET')
config.add_route('account_post', '/account/{action}', request_method='POST')
# inside my views file
@view_config(route_name='account', match_param="action=register", request_method='GET', renderer='templates/account/register.jinja2')
def register(self):
return {'project': 'Register'}
@view_config(route_name='account_post', match_param="action=register", request_method='POST', renderer='templates/account/register.jinja2')
def register_POST(self):
return {'project': 'Register_POST'}
Now, using the debugger in PyCharm as well as the debug button in pyramid, I've confirmed that the initial GET
request to view the form is being processed by the register method, and when I hit the submit button the POST
request is processed by the *register_POST* method.
However, my problem is that debugging from within the *register_POST* method, the self.request.POST
dict is empty. Also, when I check the debug button on the page, the POST request is registered in the list, but the POST data is empty.
Am I missing something, or is there some other way of access POST data?
Cheers,
Justin
