Now, inside of UserList.post, check that the "password" and "confirm_password" args are equal to each other. If they're not, raise an Exception. If they are equivalent, go ahead and create the user and send it back.
from flask import Blueprint
from flask.ext.restful import Resource, Api, reqparse, marshal_with, fields
import models
user_fields = {
'username': fields.String
}
class UserList(Resource):
def __init__(self):
self.reqparse = reqparse.RequestParser()
self.reqparse.add_argument(
'username',
required=True,
location=['form', 'json']
)
self.reqparse.add_argument(
'password',
required=True,
location=['form', 'json']
)
self.reqparse.add_argument(
'confirm_password',
required=True,
location=['form', 'json']
)
super().__init__()
@marshal_with(user_fields)
def post(self):
args = self.reqparse.parse_args()
if args.get('password') == args.get('confirm_password'):
user = models.User.create(**args)
return marshal(user, user_fields), 201
return make_response(json.dumps({'error': 'Password and confirm_password do not match'}), 400)
users_api = Blueprint('resources.users', __name__)
api = Api(users_api)
api.add_resource(UserList, '/api/v1/users')

Treehouse TeacherAt least from your code above, it seems like your post method and @marshal_with are not inside of your class. If you tab it over so it's inside of your class it should pass.
