Hii Anthony i have the following in my db:-
db.define_table('person',Field('name'),Field('birthdate','date'))
db.define_table('dog',Field('name'),Field('owner',db.person),Field('info','text'))
and api.py is my controller :-
@request.restful()
def get_person():
def GET(id):
person = db.person(id)
return person.as_dict() if person else None
def POST(owner,name,info):
return db.dog.validate_and_insert(owner=owner,name=name,info=info)
return locals()
i want to make the POST request to insert the data in database (by using
the browser).
