Flask: why having path converter in root route doesn't work?
static_url_path conflicts with routing. Flask thinks that path after / is reserved for static files, therefore path converter didn't work. See: URL routing conflicts for static files in Flask dev server
works flawless for me:
from flask import Flask, render_templateapp = Flask(__name__)@app.route('/')def index(): return render_template('index.html')@app.route('/page/<path:page>')def article(page): return render_template('page.html')if __name__ == "__main__": app.debug = True app.run()I can access: http://localhost/ -> index and http://localhost/page/<any index/path e.g.: 1> -> article
