Nicely done, Amber! Perhaps during a break week, you can finish up Wave 6.

Things to consider:

  • Keep your responses as consistent and predictable as possible. If you start with jsonify, then use it all the way through (where possible).
  • Don't forget your status codes. Several of them are missing form your responses.
  • There are some places we could pull out code into helper functions in order to keep routes shorter.

This works, but it is more Pythonic to combine this:

    if "title" not in request_body:

request_body = request.get_json()
is_valid_goal = "title" in request_body
if not is_valid_goal:
abort(make_response({"details": "Invalid data"}, 400))

How could we make this error message more descriptive for the user to understand what is missing? Maybe we can say that title is missing or something!

goals = Goal.query.all()

goals_response = [goal.goal_to_dict() for goal in goals]
return jsonify(goals_response)

Oops, don't forget your status code! Technically, it will add one by default, but consider being explicit and always adding the status code.

goals_response = [goal.goal_to_dict() for goal in goals]
return jsonify(goals_response)

@goal_bp.route("/<goal_id>", methods=["GET"])

👍

response_body = {
"goal": goal.goal_to_dict()
}
return response_body

Careful here! While this does work, it is very different form the previous routes you've done. Try to keep them as consistent as possible. If you used jsonfy in a previous route response, do it for all of them (with the few exceptions that there may be)

response_body = {
"task": task.task_to_dict()
}
return response_body

Try to keep your responses as consistent as possible. Since you've used jsonify previously, continue using it throughout.

return jsonify(response_body), 200

response_body = {
"task": task.task_to_dict()
}
return jsonify(response_body)

Oops, you forgot your status code! It will implicitly return a status code, but we should add it ourselves to be in control of what is returned

This would be a good candidate for a helper function

return jsonify(response_body)

Good job working with the documentation to find a solution! 👍

I believe abort has an implicit return, so we can combine these two lines together:

        abort(make_response({"message": f"{task_id} not found"}, 404))
