flask.views http_method_funcs Example Code

http_method_funcs is an immutable Python set within the flask.views module of the Flask project. It contains strings of the HTTP methods "get", "post", "head", "options", "delete", "put", "trace", and "patch", which is useful for checking if an HTTP method is valid by comparing it against the items in this set.

MethodView and View are a couple of other callables within the flask.views package that also have code examples.

These subjects go along with the http_method_funcs code examples:

Example 1 from flask-restx

Flask RESTX is an extension that makes it easier to build RESTful APIs into your applications. Flask RESTX aims for minimal configuration to get basic APIs running for existing applications and it exposes endpoint documentation using Swagger.
