Import

Now in order to use our new poembot.py functionality in our web application we need to import it into our application.

At the top of app.py (after the from Flask line) add this line:

import poembot

Now your module is ready to use within your web application.

# app.py

from flask import Flask, render_template, redirect, url_for, jsonify
import poembot

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def hello():
    return "Hello world!"

@app.route('/poem')
def poem():
    return "A great poem will be here!"

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)
