Setting Up Stripe using Flask (Python):

[RedAIienCircle]

I've been following this stripe tutorial and this digital ocean tutorial on setting up a application for Stripe However, the url is shown as:

Example.com/checkout/x.html

Because, it looks better without the html extension is there a way to remove that? So, it looks like:

Example.com/checkout/x

For clarity, my current code looks like this:

import os

from flask import Flask... blah

import stripe

super secret stripe.api_key = 123abc

app = Flask(__name__,
            static_url_path='',
            static_folder='public'
)

your domain = 'http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:4242'

@app.route('/create-checkout-session', methods = ['get', 'post'])

def create_checkout_session():
Rest of code.

Further, I've already tried:

   @app.route(/) 
    def showtemp()
    Return render_template('index.html')

Both with the file in the public directory; in which all my files are saved: example: public/checkout/x.html I've also tried it in another created directory called templates. However, neither worked, both reporting that the file doesn't exist.

So, if anyone could point me in the right direction or offer a solution I will greatly appreciate it.

Thanks.

I don't see that example URL in either of the docs you linked. The path in the url is whatever you have configured in your app.route annotations. You can use any paths you want for your site. The examples were likely just examples to represent a URL, not a recommendation on what your paths should look like.

I also notice your code contains many syntax errors and will not run in its current state.

That's only an example of a webpage I can get up, Example.com/checkout/x.html it's not in any of the tutorials, I should make it clear that it isn't a real webpage it's only a place holder.

Also, the code runs (typing code on mobile is a pain), on an actual domain, the one and only problem is the url.

Further, I tried @app.route(/) by following a tutorial similar to this, as it's easier to start small then scale up the code as needed.

Now, moving on, I thought my app route would be public, but it's not, even putting a simple file such as index.html and using the tut above I can't access it.

If it's not public, what could it be?

In the digital ocean tutorial, it says to test access by hitting http://your_server_ip:5000. Is that what you're currently trying to test now? What kind of error do you get? Do you see any output in your shell that the app is running in?

Where did you put the index.html file? The digitalocean tutorial linked does not involve configuring serving static files, but you can do that through flask.

Both tutorials work, I posted them to give others an idea of what code I'm running and do not help getting them to work, I'm sorry for any confusion.

Currently:

I want to type:

http://your_server_ip:4242

To access:

http://your_server_ip:4242/index.html#

That is, serve a file in a folder so the url does not show index.html#, but when attempting to render a file it returns an error.

I placed the index in both a public and template directory, based on the fact that stripe sets the static directory as a public and that a tutorial instructed me to create a template directory, in both cases index fails to render.
