[Flask] Flask server returns html response

[Corey Boyle]

Perhaps setup an error handler that would return JSON?


@main.app_errorhandler(500)
def internal_server_error(e):
"""Handel 500 errors."""
if (request.accept_mimetypes.accept_json and not
request.accept_mimetypes.accept_html):
response = jsonify({'error': 'internal server error'})
response.status_code = 500
return response
return render_template('500.html'), 500

everything works fine but when I pass an invalid request it returns html
response.  Can some please guide me to return json responses instead of
html ones. Thank you in advance.
