I am following the Udacity course here: https://classroom.udacity.com/courses/ud388/lessons/4628431284/concepts/53174719510923
I am trying to run their python program using Flask. I started vagrant with vagrant ssh
I then tried to run that python file by typing python api_server.py. But when I go to http://0.0.0.0:5000/ on my browser, I get:
Not Found
The requested URL was not found on the server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.
Then I tried typing curl 'http://127.0.0.1:5000' in vagrant but got the error
vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-32:~$ curl 'http://127.0.0.1:5000'
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 5000: Connection refused
The api_server.py file is below:
#THIS IS A WEBSERVER FOR DEMONSTRATING THE TYPES OF RESPONSES WE SEE FROM AN API ENDPOINT
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
#GET REQUEST
@app.route('/readHello')
def getRequestHello():
return "Hi, I got your GET Request!"
#POST REQUEST
@app.route('/createHello', methods = ['POST'])
def postRequestHello():
return "I see you sent a POST message :-)"
#UPDATE REQUEST
@app.route('/updateHello', methods = ['PUT'])
def updateRequestHello():
return "Sending Hello on an PUT request!"
#DELETE REQUEST
@app.route('/deleteHello', methods = ['DELETE'])
def deleteRequestHello():
return "Deleting your hard drive.....haha just kidding! I received a DELETE request!"
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.debug = True
app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=5000)
