USER'S GUIDE

This part of the documentation, which is mostly prose, begins with some background information about Flask-WTF, then focuses on step-by-step instructions for getting the most out of Flask-WTF.

  Installation

The Python Packaging Guide contains general information about how to manage your project and dependencies.

  Released version

Install or upgrade using pip.

pip install -U Flask-WTF

  Development

The latest code is available from GitHub. Clone the repository then install using pip.

git clone https://github.com/wtforms/flask-wtf
pip install -e ./flask-wtf

Or install the latest build from an archive.

pip install -U https://github.com/wtforms/flask-wtf/archive/main.tar.gz

  Quickstart

Eager to get started? This page gives a good introduction to Flask-WTF. It assumes you already have Flask-WTF installed. If you do not, head over to the Installation section.

  Creating Forms

Flask-WTF provides your Flask application integration with WTForms. For example:

from flask_wtf import FlaskForm
from wtforms import StringField
from wtforms.validators import DataRequired
class MyForm(FlaskForm):
    name = StringField('name', validators=[DataRequired()])

NOTE: From version 0.9.0, Flask-WTF will not import anything from wtforms, you need to import fields from wtforms.

In addition, a CSRF token hidden field is created automatically. You can render this in your template:

<form method="POST" action="/">
    {{ form.csrf_token }}
    {{ form.name.label }} {{ form.name(size=20) }}
    <input type="submit" value="Go">
</form>

If your form has multiple hidden fields, you can render them in one block using hidden_tag().

<form method="POST" action="/">
    {{ form.hidden_tag() }}
    {{ form.name.label }} {{ form.name(size=20) }}
    <input type="submit" value="Go">
</form>

  Validating Forms

Validating the request in your view handlers:

@app.route('/submit', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def submit():
    form = MyForm()
    if form.validate_on_submit():
        return redirect('/success')
    return render_template('submit.html', form=form)

Note that you don't have to pass request.form to Flask-WTF; it will load automatically. And the convenient validate_on_submit will check if it is a POST request and if it is valid.

If your forms include validation, you'll need to add to your template to display any error messages. Using the form.name field from the example above, that would look like this:

{% if form.name.errors %}
    <ul class="errors">
    {% for error in form.name.errors %}
        <li>{{ error }}</li>
    {% endfor %}
    </ul>
{% endif %}

Heading over to Creating Forms to learn more skills.

  Creating Forms

  Secure Form

Without any configuration, the FlaskForm will be a session secure form with csrf protection. We encourage you not to change this.

But if you want to disable the csrf protection, you can pass:

form = FlaskForm(meta={'csrf': False})

You can disable it globally—though you really shouldn't—with the configuration:

WTF_CSRF_ENABLED = False

In order to generate the csrf token, you must have a secret key, this is usually the same as your Flask app secret key. If you want to use another secret key, config it:

WTF_CSRF_SECRET_KEY = 'a random string'

  File Uploads

The FileField provided by Flask-WTF differs from the WTForms-provided field. It will check that the file is a non-empty instance of FileStorage, otherwise data will be None.

from flask_wtf import FlaskForm
from flask_wtf.file import FileField, FileRequired
from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
class PhotoForm(FlaskForm):
    photo = FileField(validators=[FileRequired()])
@app.route('/upload', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def upload():
    form = PhotoForm()
    if form.validate_on_submit():
        f = form.photo.data
        filename = secure_filename(f.filename)
        f.save(os.path.join(
            app.instance_path, 'photos', filename
        ))
        return redirect(url_for('index'))
    return render_template('upload.html', form=form)

Similarly, you can use the MultipleFileField provided by Flask-WTF to handle multiple files. It will check that the files is a list of non-empty instance of FileStorage, otherwise data will be None.

from flask_wtf import FlaskForm
from flask_wtf.file import MultipleFileField, FileRequired
from werkzeug.utils import secure_filename
class PhotoForm(FlaskForm):
    photos = MultipleFileField(validators=[FileRequired()])
@app.route('/upload', methods=['GET', 'POST'])
def upload():
    form = PhotoForm()
    if form.validate_on_submit():
        for f in form.photo.data:  # form.photo.data return a list of FileStorage object
            filename = secure_filename(f.filename)
            f.save(os.path.join(
                app.instance_path, 'photos', filename
            ))
        return redirect(url_for('index'))
    return render_template('upload.html', form=form)

Remember to set the enctype of the HTML form to multipart/form-data, otherwise request.files will be empty.

<form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    ...
</form>

Flask-WTF handles passing form data to the form for you. If you pass in the data explicitly, remember that request.form must be combined with request.files for the form to see the file data.

form = PhotoForm()
# is equivalent to:
from flask import request
from werkzeug.datastructures import CombinedMultiDict
form = PhotoForm(CombinedMultiDict((request.files, request.form)))

  Validation

Flask-WTF supports validating file uploads with FileRequired, FileAllowed, and FileSize. They can be used with both Flask-WTF's and WTForms's FileField and MultipleFileField classes.

FileAllowed works well with Flask-Uploads.

from flask_uploads import UploadSet, IMAGES
from flask_wtf import FlaskForm
from flask_wtf.file import FileField, FileAllowed, FileRequired
images = UploadSet('images', IMAGES)
class UploadForm(FlaskForm):
    upload = FileField('image', validators=[
        FileRequired(),
        FileAllowed(images, 'Images only!')
    ])

It can be used without Flask-Uploads by passing the extensions directly.

class UploadForm(FlaskForm):
    upload = FileField('image', validators=[
        FileRequired(),
        FileAllowed(['jpg', 'png'], 'Images only!')
    ])

  Recaptcha

Flask-WTF also provides Recaptcha support through a RecaptchaField:

from flask_wtf import FlaskForm, RecaptchaField
from wtforms import TextField
class SignupForm(FlaskForm):
    username = TextField('Username')
    recaptcha = RecaptchaField()

This comes with a number of configuration variables, some of which you have to configure.
RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC_KEY | required A public key.
RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE_KEY | required A private key.
RECAPTCHA_API_SERVER | optional Specify your Recaptcha API server.
RECAPTCHA_PARAMETERS | optional A dict of JavaScript (api.js) parameters.
RECAPTCHA_DATA_ATTRS | optional A dict of data attributes options. https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/display#javascript_resource_apijs_parameters

Example of RECAPTCHA_PARAMETERS, and RECAPTCHA_DATA_ATTRS:

RECAPTCHA_PARAMETERS = {'hl': 'zh', 'render': 'explicit'}
RECAPTCHA_DATA_ATTRS = {'theme': 'dark'}

For your convenience, when testing your application, if app.testing is True, the recaptcha field will always be valid.

And it can be easily setup in the templates:

<form action="/" method="post">
    {{ form.username }}
    {{ form.recaptcha }}
</form>

We have an example for you: recaptcha@github.

  CSRF Protection

Any view using FlaskForm to process the request is already getting CSRF protection. If you have views that don't use FlaskForm or make AJAX requests, use the provided CSRF extension to protect those requests as well.

  Setup

To enable CSRF protection globally for a Flask app, register the CSRFProtect extension.

from flask_wtf.csrf import CSRFProtect
csrf = CSRFProtect(app)

Like other Flask extensions, you can apply it lazily:

csrf = CSRFProtect()
def create_app():
    app = Flask(__name__)
    csrf.init_app(app)

NOTE: CSRF protection requires a secret key to securely sign the token. By default this will use the Flask app's SECRET_KEY. If you'd like to use a separate token you can set WTF_CSRF_SECRET_KEY.

  HTML Forms

When using a FlaskForm, render the form's CSRF field like normal.

<form method="post">
    {{ form.csrf_token }}
</form>

If the template doesn't use a FlaskForm, render a hidden input with the token in the form.

<form method="post">
    <input type="hidden" name="csrf_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}"/>
</form>

  JavaScript Requests

When sending an AJAX request, add the X-CSRFToken header to it. For example, in jQuery you can configure all requests to send the token.

<script type="text/javascript">
    var csrf_token = "{{ csrf_token() }}";
    $.ajaxSetup({
        beforeSend: function(xhr, settings) {
            if (!/^(GET|HEAD|OPTIONS|TRACE)$/i.test(settings.type) && !this.crossDomain) {
                xhr.setRequestHeader("X-CSRFToken", csrf_token);
            }
        }
    });
</script>

In Axios you can set the header for all requests with axios.defaults.headers.common.

<script type="text/javascript">
    axios.defaults.headers.common["X-CSRFToken"] = "{{ csrf_token() }}";
</script>

  Customize the error response

When CSRF validation fails, it will raise a CSRFError. By default this returns a response with the failure reason and a 400 code. You can customize the error response using Flask's errorhandler().

from flask_wtf.csrf import CSRFError
@app.errorhandler(CSRFError)
def handle_csrf_error(e):
    return render_template('csrf_error.html', reason=e.description), 400

  Exclude views from protection

We strongly suggest that you protect all your views with CSRF. But if needed, you can exclude some views using a decorator.

@app.route('/foo', methods=('GET', 'POST'))
@csrf.exempt
def my_handler():
    # ...
    return 'ok'

You can exclude all the views of a blueprint.

csrf.exempt(account_blueprint)

You can disable CSRF protection in all views by default, by setting WTF_CSRF_CHECK_DEFAULT to False, and selectively call protect() only when you need. This also enables you to do some pre-processing on the requests before checking for the CSRF token.

@app.before_request
def check_csrf():
    if not is_oauth(request):
        csrf.protect()

  Configuration
WTF_CSRF_ENABLED | Set to False to disable all CSRF protection. Default is True.
WTF_CSRF_CHECK_DEFAULT | When using the CSRF protection extension, this controls whether every view is protected by default. Default is True.
WTF_CSRF_SECRET_KEY | Random data for generating secure tokens. If this is not set then SECRET_KEY is used.
WTF_CSRF_METHODS | HTTP methods to protect from CSRF. Default is {'POST', 'PUT', 'PATCH', 'DELETE'}.
WTF_CSRF_FIELD_NAME | Name of the form field and session key that holds the CSRF token. Default is csrf_token.
WTF_CSRF_HEADERS | HTTP headers to search for CSRF token when it is not provided in the form. Default is ['X-CSRFToken', 'X-CSRF-Token'].
WTF_CSRF_TIME_LIMIT | Max age in seconds for CSRF tokens. Default is 3600. If set to None, the CSRF token is valid for the life of the session.
WTF_CSRF_SSL_STRICT | Whether to enforce the same origin policy by checking that the referrer matches the host. Only applies to HTTPS requests. Default is True.
WTF_I18N_ENABLED | Set to False to disable Flask-Babel I18N support. Also set to False if you want to use WTForms's built-in messages directly, see more info here. Default is True.

  Recaptcha
RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC_KEY | required A public key.
RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE_KEY | required A private key. https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin
RECAPTCHA_PARAMETERS | optional A dict of configuration options.
RECAPTCHA_HTML | optional Override default HTML template for Recaptcha.
RECAPTCHA_DATA_ATTRS | optional A dict of data- attrs to use for Recaptcha div
RECAPTCHA_SCRIPT | optional Override the default captcha script URI in case an alternative service to reCAPtCHA, e.g. hCaptcha is used. Default is 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js'
RECAPTCHA_DIV_CLASS | optional Override the default class of the captcha div in case an alternative captcha service is used. Default is 'g-recaptcha'
RECAPTCHA_VERIFY_SERVER | optional Override the default verification server in case an alternative service is used. Default is 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify'

  Logging

CSRF errors are logged at the INFO level to the flask_wtf.csrf logger. You still need to configure logging in your application in order to see these messages.

  How to contribute to Flask-WTF

Thank you for considering contributing to Flask-WTF!

  Support questions

Please don't use the issue tracker for this. The issue tracker is a tool to address bugs and feature requests in Flask-WTF itself. Use one of the following resources for questions about using Flask-WTF or issues with your own code:

•   The #get-help channel on our Discord chat: https://discord.gg/pallets

•   The mailing list flask@python.org for long term discussion or larger issues.

•   Ask on Stack Overflow. Search with Google first using: site:stackoverflow.com flask-wtf {search term, exception message, etc.}

  Reporting issues

Include the following information in your post:

•   Describe what you expected to happen.

•   If possible, include a minimal reproducible example to help us identify the issue. This also helps check that the issue is not with your own code.

•   Describe what actually happened. Include the full traceback if there was an exception.

•   List your Python, Flask-WTF, and WTForms versions. If possible, check if this issue is already fixed in the latest releases or the latest code in the repository.

  Submitting patches

If there is not an open issue for what you want to submit, prefer opening one for discussion before working on a PR. You can work on any issue that doesn't have an open PR linked to it or a maintainer assigned to it. These show up in the sidebar. No need to ask if you can work on an issue that interests you.

Include the following in your patch:

•   Use Black to format your code. This and other tools will run automatically if you install pre-commit using the instructions below.

•   Include tests if your patch adds or changes code. Make sure the test fails without your patch.

•   Update any relevant docs pages and docstrings. Docs pages and docstrings should be wrapped at 72 characters.

•   Add an entry in CHANGES.rst. Use the same style as other entries. Also include .. versionchanged:: inline changelogs in relevant docstrings.

  First time setup

•   Download and install the latest version of git.

•   Configure git with your username and email.

    $ git config --global user.name 'your name'
    $ git config --global user.email 'your email'

•   Make sure you have a GitHub account.

•   Fork Flask-WTF to your GitHub account by clicking the Fork button.

•   Clone the main repository locally.

    $ git clone https://github.com/wtforms/flask-wtf
    $ cd flask-wtf

•   Add your fork as a remote to push your work to. Replace {username} with your username. This names the remote "fork", the default WTForms remote is "origin".

    $ git remote add fork https://github.com/{username}/flask-wtf

•   Create a virtualenv.

    $ python3 -m venv env
    $ . env/bin/activate

    On Windows, activating is different.

    > env\Scripts\activate

•   Upgrade pip and setuptools.

    $ python -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools

•   Install the development dependencies, then install Flask-WTF in editable mode.

    $ pip install -r requirements/dev.txt && pip install -e .

•   Install the pre-commit hooks.

    $ pre-commit install

  Start coding

•   Create a branch to identify the issue you would like to work on. If you're submitting a bug or documentation fix, branch off of the latest ".x" branch.

    $ git fetch origin
    $ git checkout -b your-branch-name origin/1.0.x

    If you're submitting a feature addition or change, branch off of the "main" branch.

    $ git fetch origin
    $ git checkout -b your-branch-name origin/main

•   Using your favorite editor, make your changes, committing as you go.

•   Include tests that cover any code changes you make. Make sure the test fails without your patch. Run the tests as described below.

•   Push your commits to your fork on GitHub and create a pull request. Link to the issue being addressed with fixes #123 in the pull request.

    $ git push --set-upstream fork your-branch-name

  Running the tests

Run the basic test suite with pytest.

$ pytest

This runs the tests for the current environment, which is usually sufficient. CI will run the full suite when you submit your pull request. You can run the full test suite with tox if you don't want to wait.

$ tox

  Running test coverage

Generating a report of lines that do not have test coverage can indicate where to start contributing. Run pytest using coverage and generate a report.

$ pip install coverage
$ coverage run -m pytest
$ coverage html

Open htmlcov/index.html in your browser to explore the report.

Read more about coverage.

  Building the docs

Build the docs in the docs directory using Sphinx.
