Render Jinja after jQuery AJAX request to Flask

Question

I have a web application that gets dynamic data from Flask when a select element from HTML is changed. of course that is done via jquer

Answer 1

Okay, I got it.

Simply, I made an external html file and added the required jinja template to it.

{% for object in object_list %}
   {{object.name}}
{% endfor %}

then in my Flask file I literally returned the render_template response to the jquery ( which contained the HTML I wanted to append )

objects_from_db = getAllObjects()
return jsonify({'data': render_template('the_temp.html', object_list=objects_from_db)}

And then simply append the HTML from the response to the required div to be updated.
