Blueprint name collisions (#1474 issue reopening )

[K-7]

The issue in the following link still persists #1474

Even after changing the endpoint, still the issue persists.

Package Verison
Flask-Admin==1.5.2
Flask == 1.0.2

Initialisation code
admin_control = Admin(name='Saiva', endpoint='bp_admin')
admin_control.init_app(app, index_view=admin.AdminView())

Here Iam overriding the Admin view

Kindly help me out

Not sure if it's the right way, but when I use endpoint I specify a name and endpoint value.

# in app/auth/__init.py
from app import db
from app.auth.admin_views import SomeView

def init_admin(f_admin):
    f_admin.add_view(SomeView(db.session, endpoint='create some view', name='Create SomeView'))

Then in my create_app

# in app/__init__.py
def create_app(.....):
    # all the other blueprint registration. 

    ### Admin setup
    from app.auth.routes import MyAdminIndexView
    f_admin = Admin(
        app,                                   # flask app name
        name='Some Dashboard', 
        index_view=MyAdminIndexView(url='/'),
        base_template='my_master.html',
        template_mode='bootstrap3')
        
        
  
    from app.auth import init_admin           # import my views    
    init_admin(f_admin)                        # this call must be after all blueprints
    ###  END ADMIN IMPORT

    return app

Your issue looks like you're specifying the endpoint and name when you instantiate Admin and you should be doing it when you add your views (the conflict is in your views).

You were right, thank you for that. Below I have indicated the changes that I did ie. adding endpoint while adding a view

Initialise the module
admin_control = Admin(name='App', url='/admin')
admin_control.init_app(app, index_view=admin.AdminView())

class AdminView(AdminIndexView):
def is_accessible(self):
if not current_user.is_active or not current_user.is_authenticated or not current_user.is_admin:
return False
return True
def inaccessible_callback(self, name, **kwargs):
# redirect to login page if user doesn't have access
return redirect(url_for('bp_user.login'))
`

Add views
admin_control.add_view(UserView(User, db.session, endpoint="user"))
admin_control.add_view(RoleView(Role, db.session, endpoint="role"))

But after making these changes I am getting a new issue. Below I have attached an screenshot
pertaining to it. The menu shows up as Alchemy query object rather than a string

Kindly let me know what wrong am I doing !!

Not sure, but you're add view call is passing in the model, in my case im excluding the model User and defining the constructor to do this:

class UserView(sqla.ModelView):
    can_export = True

    def __init__(self, session, **kwargs):
        # Just call parent class w  ith predefined model.
        super(UserView, self).__init__(User, session, **kwargs)

looks like your init_admin is also different I only pass in the flask_admin = Admin() call.

Ok But i want my AdminView to inherit AdminIndexView and pass model in add view. Not sure where I am going wrong

@K-7 maybe this helps:

It's my Flask-Admin setup showing some inheritance.
