12,755 PointsMethod not allowed when trying to add builder route?
I have been trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong here... I even deleted my workspace and started fresh with a new template for the course and still get this error after naming the bear.
"Method Not Allowed
The method is not allowed for the requested URL."
here is what I have for code I am sure its something simple that I have just missed but I can not find it:
import json
from flask import (Flask, render_template, redirect,
url_for, request, make_response)
from options import DEFAULTS
app = Flask(__name__)
def get_saved_data():
try:
data = json.loads(request.cookies.get('character'))
except TypeError:
data = {}
return data
@app.route('/')
def index():
return render_template('index.html', saves=get_saved_data())
@app.route('/builder')
def builder():
return render_template(
'builder.html',
saves=get_saved_data(),
options=DEFAULTS
)
@app.route('/save', methods=['POST'])
def save():
response = make_response(redirect(url_for('builder')))
data = get_saved_data()
data.update(dict(request.form.items()))
response.set_cookie('character', data)
return response
app.run(debug=True, host='0.0.0.0', port=8000)

or /
.
