These snippets should be added to automatically import the request function when used so that the error doesn't occur.

Undefined name "request"

Example

• Error case

  # fsup (Snippet)
    
  from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
  
  @app.route('/upload', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
  def upload_file():
      if request.method == 'POST':  # -> Error: Undefined name Request
          f = request.files['the_file'] # -> Error: Undefined name Request
          f.save('/path/to/save/' + secure_filename(f.filename))

• Solution

  # fsup (Snippet)
    
  from flask import request # Solution -> Import request
  from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
  
  @app.route('/upload', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
  def upload_file():
      if request.method == 'POST':  
          f = request.files['the_file'] 
          f.save('/path/to/save/' + secure_filename(f.filename))

Importance

• Ensure the snippet works from the start and avoid errors in the future.
• Maintains integrity.
• Ensures snippets are consistent

Conclusion

Even though it's a minor error, it can cause some confusion if the user doesn't notice it immediately, so handling it wouldn't be a bad idea.
It's a pleasure to contribute this information to the package. Don't hesitate to contact me if you need me.
