Hey, I try to login by using this function:
@general_app.route('/signin', methods=['POST'])
def login():
status_code = 400
response = "login details invalid"
form = json.loads(request.data.decode('utf-8'))# gets password and email inserted by user
user = User.query.filter_by(email=form['email']).first()
if user is not None: #checks if email exists in database
if utils.verify_password(form['password'],user.password) and user.confirmed is True: #if password match and user is authenticated
user.active = True #I still don't know if this attribute is useful
db.session.commit()
status_code = 200
response = {'access_token' : guard.encode_jwt_token(user)} #encode token
return json.jsonify(response), status_code
After few tries, I managed to locate the problem, everytime I try to use request.data
it throws an exception, no idea why, because when I run it locally it works flawlessly.
I couldn't figure what's causing it, any ideas?.
by the way, reauest
object is fine, I tried code like if request.method == 'POST'
and it works, so I'm clueless.
Thank you.
