DataError: (psycopg2.DataError) invalid input syntax for integer

Question

I'm trying to add Flask-Login to my Flask-Python app but I'm having this error and I don't know why. I guess thats my user.loader that isnt correct but the idea is to load the user based on the ID or email.

Any idea what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Regards

You're using User.query.get(uid) where you need to use filter or filter_by:

@login_manager.user_loader
def user_loader(user_email):
    """Given *user_id*, return the associated User object.

    :param unicode user_id: user_id (email) user to retrieve
    """
    return User.query.filter_by(email=user_email).first()

get() takes a Primary Key (which would be user id in this case) and returns it, filter is what you need here if you're trying to limit on a column value.
