Within a Flask app, I have the following ajax call:
$.ajax({
url: "{{ url_for( 'bookings.get_customer' ) }}",
type: "POST",
data: nameArray,
success: function( resp ){
console.log( resp )
}
})
As you can see, I am passing an array against which I will search my mongo database, which will either return or not return a customer.
So, the python def that is responsible for handling this ajax call is:
@bookings.route( '/get_customer', methods=[ 'POST' ] )
def get_customer():
name = {}
for key, value in request.form.items():
name[ key ] = value
customer_obj = customer_class.Customer()
results = customer_obj.search_customer( name )
return results
For argument's sake, let's say the customer_obj call returns the following list:
[{'customer': {
u'first_name': u'Dave',
u'tel': u'0121212121458',
u'country': u'UK',
u'address2': u'Townington',
u'address3': u'Cityville',
u'email': u'[email protected]',
u'postcode': u'A10 5BC',
u'address1': u'10 High Street',
u'second_name': u'Smith'
},
'customer_id': u'DaveSmithA10 5BCCat_Vegas1346244086'
}]
When I try to return this to the ajax call as
return results
I get the following error:
TypeError: 'list' object is not callable
Here is the traceback:

Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
