So you got Flask working! Now for the error there, instead of

return messages

in e(), try

return tuple(messages)

(I do not know why Flask allows you to send tuples.)

[abobobobobbom]

either Flask does not allow

, or the tuple is invalid

[warped_wart_wars]

Oh. It's the latter. Try returning str(messages) instead.

[abobobobobbom]

it worked!

[abobobobobbom]

nevermind... (i appended 3 to messages first)

CORS issue, fix:

[abobobobobbom]

unless i have to use the call() block

I added "WarpedWartWars here!" multiple times. But I'm getting a tripled message:

[abobobobobbom]

(DELAYED DUE TO 2 CONSCUTIVE REPLIES THINGY)

@warped_wart_wars better add a delete from messages then xd

[abobobobobbom]

@warped_wart_wars weird... do not know how to fix that

[warped_wart_wars]

Oh and to prevent caching of the output, try this:

[warped_wart_wars]

Oh and to make it JSON-friendly, can you have it import json (standard lib, no need to install it) then, instead of str(messages), use json.dumps(messages)?

[abobobobobbom]

@warped_wart_wars

caching of the output

what?

[warped_wart_wars]

I was getting ['3'] whenever I checked the output, even though the adding worked. So I added that bit to make the URL unique every time.

[warped_wart_wars]

"?" isn't getting saved, even url encoded, so I'll see what Python's urllib module can do about that.

Edit: Can you add from urllib.parse import unquote, then, in append(), have

messages.append(unquote(input))

?

[abobobobobbom]

i did

[abobobobobbom]

@warped_wart_wars please stop replying with the server

[warped_wart_wars]

The problem was actually in my code.

[abobobobobbom]
