Question :
Where do I define the domain to be used by url_for() in Flask?
When I call url_for('index')
it will generate '/'
but there are times where I’d like it to generate 'domain.tld/'
instead. I can’t find in the documentation where I would specify this. Do I just need to do 'domain.tld/%s' % url_for('index')
?
Answer #1:
url_for
takes an _external
keyword argument that will return an absolute (rather than relative) URL. I believe you will need to set a SERVER_NAME
config key with your root domain to make it work correctly.
