Delete row in Sqlite database using Python Flask and jQuery












-1














I can't get this to work. I simply need users to be able to delete rows in a table using a button. I don't want the UI to reset or scroll so I am using ajax via jQuery.



In app.py:



from flask import Flask
from flask import Flask, render_template, request
import sqlite3

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
@app.route('/delete', methods=['POST'])

def delete():
con = sqlite3.connect('ships.db')
cur = con.cursor()
cur.execute('DELETE FROM `liners` WHERE liner_ip = "' + request.form['id'] + '"')
cur.commit()
con.close()


In index.html:



$( document ).ready(function() {
$( 'a.delete' ).click( function( e ) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: '/delete',
data: $('form').serialize(),
type: 'POST',
success: function(response) {
console.log(response);
},
error: function(error) {
console.log(error);
}
});
});
});

<form action="/delete" method="post" role="form">
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="{{row['liner_ip']}}">
<a href="#" class="btn btn-danger delete">DELETE</a>
</form>


The row does not get deleted and the response code is 200. So I don't know what the issue is. I can confirm that the form gets populated properly and the ajax request is made.



Can anyone point me to a sample that does this?
