I have the following route definition in my Flask app's server.py:
@app.route('/nearby/<float:lat>/<float:long>')
def nearby(lat, long):
for truck in db.trucks.find({'loc': {'$near': [lat, long]}}).limit(5):
if truck.has_key('loc'):
del truck['loc']
return json.dumps(trucks)
But when I go to http://localhost:5000/nearby/37.7909470419234/-122.398633589404
, I get a 404.
The other routes work fine, so it's an issue with this one. What am I doing wrong here?
Since the built in FloatConverter can only handle positive numbers, I pass the coordinates as strings, and use Python's float() method to convert them to floats.
