FLASK PYTHON: TypeError: object of type 'int' has no len()

Time:12-03

I am trying to make an upload form with Flask where the user needs to fill in the information needed, upload a photo, and also to pick a category provided from the database by using QuerySelectField.

When I submit the form, I get TypeError: object of type 'int' has no len().

The goal was to have different events of various types. Like cafes, Restaurants, etc. I think the problem is at if formupload.validate_on_submit():

The Error

CodePudding user response:

The problem might be from the fields in your model. You have to use NumberRange for IntergerField instead of using Length which is for a string

Please try

price = IntegerField(label='Price:', validators=[DataRequired(), NumberRange(min=1, max=10)])
