Generate a link with utf-8 values and passing it to a Flask route [closed]

Answer 1

I'm trying to reproduce your issue but I think that you should provide more information.

I've tried the setup below and the file named Νικόλαος Βέργος.pdf is correctly returned by /redirect/.

app.py

from flask import render_template
from flask import Flask
from flask import request, send_from_directory
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def home():
    filename='Νικόλαος Βέργος.pdf'
    return render_template('home.html', filename=filename)

@app.route('/redirect/')
def redirect():
    if request.args:
        filename = request.args.get('filename')
        filepath = '/static/files/'
        return send_from_directory(filepath, filename, as_attachment=True)

templates/home.html
