I want to implement frontend to send logout request to the flask backend below,
from flask_login import login_required, logout_user
@app.route('/auth/logout', methods=['POST'])
@login_required
def logout():
logout_user()
return "success", 200
I only know I should include the credential information inside the POST data.
However, even I read through the document: https://flask-login.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ and google on the internet, I didn't find a working example of frontend code that works with this kind of backend API
Is there anyone who can provide a simple frontend code example to call this backend api with credential included, thanks!
I got a practical code example for sending request to this API:
fetch('https://app_hostname.com/auth/logout', {
credentials: 'include',
method: 'POST',
mode: 'cors',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Accept': 'application/json',
'X-XSRF-TOKEN': getCookieValue('XSRF-TOKEN')
}
});
CURL command should be:
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json, 'Accept': 'application/json', 'X-XSRF-TOKEN: xxxx'" 'https://app_hostname.com/auth/logout'
