So I have the api route here where we can add an user to my server
@app.route('/api/adduser', methods = ['POST']) # This is a post method because the user needs to be able to add info
def adding_stuff():
request_data = request.get_json() # Gets the info from the table and converts to JSON format
new_fname = request_data['firstname']
new_lname = request_data['lastname']
conn = create_connection("", "", "", "")
sql = "INSERT INTO restaurantusers (firstname, lastname) VALUES ('%s', '%s');" % (new_fname, new_lname) # This sql statement will then be uploaded to the databse to add a new record
execute_query(conn, sql) # This will execute the query
return 'Post worked'
Then I have a NodeJs server running with the api that is selected when the form is filled out
app.post('/add_people', function(req, res){
axios.get('http://127.0.0.1:5000/api/adduser')
.then((response)=>{
var restlist = response.data.results;
console.log(restlist);
// Now we will execute the results in the page named thanks
});
});
Lastly the form looks like this
<form action="/add_user" method="post">
<input type = "text" firstname = "firstname">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">
<h1>Lets add our last name </h1>
<form action="/add_user" method="post">
<input type = "text" lastname = "lastname">
<input type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">
</form>
What is missing or what can I add so that the user is actually added to the server?
