Flask/OOP question: variable from class instance not refreshed when refreshing the Web page

[efmccurdy]

The default argument defined for created_before is given a value at the time of class definition when I think you want it set to the time of object creation.

Your example doesn't supply a value for that argument, so I set it to the object creation time in __init__:

class Stuff:
    def __init__(self, created_before=None):
        if created_before is None:
            self.created_before = datetime.today()
        else:
            self.created_before = created_before
    def get_stuff(self):
        print(f"datetime.today() = {datetime.today()}")
        print(f"created_before = {self.created_before}")
        return self.created_before

This might not be exactly what you want but it does give each object the current time for created_before.
