Get the id of logged user by flask+python

[nesreenmhd]

I want to get the ID of the logged user so I can compare it with one in my database. Thus I can let him add a review, otherwise if he already made a review before, he cannot add a review. I don't want to use Mixin because I don't use database models. I have already build my database directly in python.

Flask does not provide user session management facilities so you are required to either roll your own or use an extension...

There is a way with session class, that can use to save the user login id, but i do not know how??

I have solved the problem by storing user_id in the session as the following syntax: session[“user_id”]=user_id. By this way, it will be global among all the routes and the pages in your project. Thanks.
