post id comes from post model. Say i had a table with all posts and wanted to display them and also wanted the user to be able to look at each individual post. see below
# this is just an example
@app.route('/post/<int:myid>')
def post():
post = models.Post.get(id=myid) # to get an individual post i need to supply the route with an id
return render('post.html',post=post)
home.html
lets assume here i have supplied an array called posts with all the posts to home template
{% for post in posts%} # looping through each post
<a href="{{url_for('post',myid=post.id)}}">post.title</a> # getting the id for each post and then navigate to post detail page
{% endfor %}
post.html
<p>post.title</p>
<p>post.content</p>
hope this helps
