This works by adding another Flask-RESTful class implementation:
class JobSearch(Resource): def post(self): skills = request.form['skills'] print("Request for jobs with the following skills: " + skills) host = 'localhost' if os.environ.get('ES_HOST'): host = os.environ.get('ES_HOST') print("ElasticSearch host: " + host) es = Elasticsearch(hosts=[host]) search_definition = { "query": { "match": { "JSON.skills": { "query": skills, "operator": "AND" } } }, "_source": ["ID"] } try: result = es.search(index="joblistings", doc_type="job-listing", body=search_definition) print(result) return result except: return sys.exc_info()[0]api.add_resource(JobSearch, '/', '/joblistings/search')
This class implements a post method as a resource ...
