TypeError: key <built-in function id> 不是字符串

Question

我正在使用 flask 及其 flask-restful 扩展来制作一个简单的 restful-api。我无法将数据填充到带有用户 ID（参考）的问题表中。

model.py文件如下：

class User(UserMixin, SurrogatePK, Model):

    __tablename__ = 'users'
    username = Column(db.String(80), unique=True, nullable=False)
    email = Column(db.String(80), unique=True, nullable=False)
    #: The hashed password
    password = Column(db.String(128), nullable=True)
    created_at = Column(db.DateTime, nullable=False, default=dt.datetime.utcnow)

    def __init__(self, username, email, password=None, **kwargs):
        db.Model.__init__(self, username=username, email=email, **kwargs)
        if password:
            self.set_password(password)
        else:
            self.password = None

    def set_password(self, password):
        self.password = bcrypt.generate_password_hash(password)

    def check_password(self, value):
        return bcrypt.check_password_hash(self.password, value)

    def generate_auth_token(self, expiration = 600):
        s = Serializer('secret_key', expires_in = expiration)
        return s.dumps({ 'id': self.id })

    @staticmethod
    def verify_auth_token(token):
        s = Serializer('secret_key')
        try:
            data = s.loads(token)
        except SignatureExpired:
            return None # valid token, but expired
        except BadSignature:
            return None # invalid token
        user = User.query.get(data['id'])
        return user
    def __repr__(self):
        return '<User({username!r})>'.format(username=self.username)

class Question(SurrogatePK, Model):
    __tablename__ = 'questions'
    text = Column(db.String(400), nullable=True)
    created_at = Column(db.DateTime, nullable=True, default=dt.datetime.utcnow)

    user_id = ReferenceCol('users', nullable=True)
    user = db.relationship('User', backref='question_users')

    def __init__(self, text, created_at, user, **kwargs):
        db.Model.__init__(self, text=text, user=user, **kwargs)

    def __repr__(self):
        return '<Question({text})>'.format(text=self.text)

我使用flask-httpauth的HTTPBasicAuth对用户进行身份验证，并使用以下装饰器将用户信息存储到全局变量g：

@auth.verify_password
def verify_password(username_or_token, password):
    # first try to authenticate by token
    user = User.verify_auth_token(username_or_token)
    if not user:
        # try to authenticate with username/password
        user = User.query.filter_by(username = username_or_token).first()
        if not user or not user.check_password(password):
            return False
    g.user = user
    return True

最后，我的视图文件。 视图文件如下所示：

questionlist_fields = {
    'text':fields.String,
    'uri':fields.Url
}

class QuestionListAPI(Resource):
    decorators = [auth.login_required]
    def __init__(self):
        self.reqparse = reqparse.RequestParser()
        self.reqparse.add_argument('text', type=str, required=True,
            help='No Question Title Provided', location='json')
        super(QuestionListAPI, self).__init__()
    def post(self):
        args = self.reqparse.parse_args()

        #----------the code causing error-----------------#
        question = Question.create(text=args.text,
                                    created_at=datetime.utcnow(),
                                    user=g.user)
        #-------------------------------------------------#

        return {id:marshal(question, questionlist_fields)}
api.add_resource(QuestionListAPI, '/api/questions', endpoint='questions')

错误日志如下：

抱歉，代码行太长了。我只是不知道是什么导致了问题。

Answer 1

你的问题出在这一行：

return {id:marshal(question, questionlist_fields)}

我想你想要这个：

return {'id': marshal(question, questionlist_fields)}

在某些语言中，尤其是 JavaScript，所有 dict 键都是字符串，并且语法允许您去掉引号。

在 Python 中，dict 键可以是任何你想要的。^* 如果你想要一个字符串，你需要引号。如果你只是传递id，你只是说你希望密钥是变量id中的任何东西。由于您没有名为 id 的局部变量，因此您得到的是内置变量。

这仍然是完全有效的，即使它不是你想要的，也不是很有用。

但是，当您从 JSON API 上的 Flask post 方法返回 dict 时，它会被编码为 JSON。 JSON 只允许 dict 键的字符串，而不是函数。因此出现错误。

_{* 嗯，不完全是。它们可以是任何hashable，不包括像list 这样的可变类型，以及出于其他原因不想用作键的一些其他类型。}
