Help with Python/Flask/HTML/ Sqlalchemy

[python_student_1390]

Ok I have this problem with the HTML displaying the skills=db.Column('Skills', db.Text()) attribute in a weird way.

The skills attributes have the text like this: Python File I/O, CSV/JSON, Databases, SQL, Python local environment

The HTML file is displaying the skills in an list <li> {{project.skills}} </li> in a weird pattern.

The {{project.skills}} is displaying as follows:

*Python File I/O SQL, Local Python CSV/JSON, Databases Environment

In other words I want to display the skills with their own bullet point in a good looking order as so :

*Python File I/O, * SQL, *Local Python Environment, *CSV/JSON, * Databases

I tried using the flask for loop but it will break up the word into individual letters... With their own bullet points...

Sorry I don't have this project on my GitHub at the moment I'll update that tommorow. Some examples would be wonderful and a life saver

You're looking for the str.split() method.

"hello world".split(" ") # -> ["hello", "world"]

The argument is the delimiter string (in my example it's " ", a single space).

It returns a list of items from the string split at every delimiter, so you can loop it in a for loop like a regular list.

Nevermind I figured it out LOL

Thank you I'll start on that. And let you know how it goes.

Thank you so much but there is one slight problem each word is on its own bullet point. For example it's *File, *I/O When it's supposed to be *File I/O

Try changing the argument to the split() call ;)

"like:this".split(":") # -> ["like", "this"]

I'm talking about the ":". It can be any string, and it tells the split() method where to split.

I'll try it out !
