IMPORTANT NOTICE:

This project has been forked to Flask-RESTX <https://github.com/python-restx/flask-restx>_
and will be maintained by by the python-restx <https://github.com/python-restx>_
organization. Flask-RESTPlus should be considered unmaintained.

The community has decided to fork the project due to lack of response from the
original author @noirbizarre. We have been discussing this eventuality for
almost a year <https://github.com/noirbizarre/flask-restplus/issues/593>_.

Things evolved a bit since that discussion and a few of us have been granted
maintainers access to the github project, but only the original author has
access rights on the PyPi project. As such, we been unable to make any actual
releases. To prevent this project from dying out, we have forked it to continue
development and to support our users.

Flask-RESTPlus is an extension for Flask_ that adds support for quickly building REST APIs.
Flask-RESTPlus encourages best practices with minimal setup.
If you are familiar with Flask, Flask-RESTPlus should be easy to pick up.
It provides a coherent collection of decorators and tools to describe your API
and expose its documentation properly using Swagger_.

Compatibility

Flask-RestPlus requires Python 2.7 or 3.4+.

Installation

You can install Flask-Restplus with pip:

… code-block:: console

$ pip install flask-restplus

or with easy_install:

… code-block:: console

$ easy_install flask-restplus

Quick start

With Flask-Restplus, you only import the api instance to route and document your endpoints.

… code-block:: python

from flask import Flask
from flask_restplus import Api, Resource, fields

app = Flask(__name__)
api = Api(app, version='1.0', title='TodoMVC API',
    description='A simple TodoMVC API',
)

ns = api.namespace('todos', description='TODO operations')

todo = api.model('Todo', {
    'id': fields.Integer(readOnly=True, description='The task unique identifier'),
    'task': fields.String(required=True, description='The task details')
})


class TodoDAO(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.counter = 0
        self.todos = []

    def get(self, id):
        for todo in self.todos:
            if todo['id'] == id:
                return todo
        api.abort(404, "Todo {} doesn't exist".format(id))

    def create(self, data):
        todo = data
        todo['id'] = self.counter = self.counter + 1
        self.todos.append(todo)
        return todo

    def update(self, id, data):
        todo = self.get(id)
        todo.update(data)
        return todo

    def delete(self, id):
        todo = self.get(id)
        self.todos.remove(todo)


DAO = TodoDAO()
DAO.create({'task': 'Build an API'})
DAO.create({'task': '?????'})
DAO.create({'task': 'profit!'})


@ns.route('/')
class TodoList(Resource):
    '''Shows a list of all todos, and lets you POST to add new tasks'''
    @ns.doc('list_todos')
    @ns.marshal_list_with(todo)
    def get(self):
        '''List all tasks'''
        return DAO.todos

    @ns.doc('create_todo')
    @ns.expect(todo)
    @ns.marshal_with(todo, code=201)
    def post(self):
        '''Create a new task'''
        return DAO.create(api.payload), 201


@ns.route('/<int:id>')
@ns.response(404, 'Todo not found')
@ns.param('id', 'The task identifier')
class Todo(Resource):
    '''Show a single todo item and lets you delete them'''
    @ns.doc('get_todo')
    @ns.marshal_with(todo)
    def get(self, id):
        '''Fetch a given resource'''
        return DAO.get(id)

    @ns.doc('delete_todo')
    @ns.response(204, 'Todo deleted')
    def delete(self, id):
        '''Delete a task given its identifier'''
        DAO.delete(id)
        return '', 204

    @ns.expect(todo)
    @ns.marshal_with(todo)
    def put(self, id):
        '''Update a task given its identifier'''
        return DAO.update(id, api.payload)
