Great! Now that we have the Blueprint, it's time to create the actual Api instance and register the resources for it.

I am getting error while registering

api.py 
from flask import Flask
from resources.ingredients import ingredients_api
from resources.recipes import recipes_api

app = Flask(__name__)
app.register_blueprint(ingredients_api)
app.register_blueprint(recipes_api,url_prefix='/api/v1/')



if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run()
resources/ingredients.py 
from flask import Blueprint
from flask.ext.restful import Resource,Api

import models


class IngredientList(Resource):
    def get(self):
        return 'IngredientList'


class Ingredient(Resource):
    def get(self, id):
        return 'Ingredient'
ingredients_api=Blueprint("resources.ingredients",__name__)
api=Api(ingredients_api)
api.add_resource(
    IngredientList,
    '/api/v1/ingredients',
    endpoint='ingredients'
)
api.add_resource(
    Ingredient,
    '/ingredients/<int:id>',
    endpoint='ingredient'
)
resources/recipes.py 
from flask import Blueprint
from flask.ext.restful import Resource,Api

import models


class RecipeList(Resource):
    def get(self):
        return 'RecipeList'


class Recipe(Resource):
    def get(self, id):
        return 'Recipe'
recipes_api=Blueprint("resources.recipes",__name__)
app=Api(recipes_api)
api.add_resource(
    RecipeList,
    '/api/v1/recipes',
    endpoint='recipes'
)
api.add_resource(
    Recipe,
    '/recipes/<int:id>',
    endpoint='recipe'
)
