My app.py contains a call to calculate() in logic.py: import os from flask import Flask, jsonify from flask_restful import Api, Resource, request from logic import calculate app = Flask(__name__) api = Api(app) class calculate (Resource): def get(self): print("Calculation requested") output = calculate() print(output) return output api.add_resource(calculate, '/calculate') if __name__ == "__main__": app.run() import json def calculate(input): dic = {"aha": "Aha... " + input, "buaha": "Haha!"} print("Returning...") return json.dumps(dic) I've noticed several unexpected issues but I can't diagnose it properly (only relying on examples like this, this and this).
