Menu
Before asking the question i want to mention that i am aware of the fact that i can use django instead to make the app, but i need to use falcon and nothing else.
i am just looking for an approach
lets take a very simple scenario so that i can understand how data flows between various parts of the app.
i have a simple login page using html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<form action="***what-do-i-put-here***">
<fieldset>
<legend>Personal information:</legend>
First name:<br>
<input type="text" name="firstname" value="Mickey">
<br>
Last name:<br>
<input type="text" name="lastname" value="Mouse">
<br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</fieldset>
</form>
</body>
</html>
i run it using simpleHTTpServer present by default in python.
now i create a very basic falcon app with just one responder "on_post()" which just replies back with the data that it recieved from the form,
i am using uWsgi on localserver to host my falcon app. how do i the make these two different pieces of code to interact with each other i mean in the html form ,what we do in case of Php is we define the name of php file under "actions" tag .how do we do this in falcon.
a very simple and small working example is highly appreciated

Here is a working example!
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="http://127.0.0.1:8000" method="post">
<input type="text" name="name">
<button type="submit" name="btn">Submit</button>
</form>
</body>
</html>
Falcon code:
import falcon
from wsgiref import simple_server
class Resource(object):
def on_post(self, req, resp):
resp.status = falcon.HTTP_200
resp.body = req.params['name']
app = api = falcon.API()
app.req_options.auto_parse_form_urlencoded = True
api.add_route('/', Resource())
if __name__ == '__main__':
http = simple_server.make_server('127.0.0.1', 8000, app)
http.serve_forever()
