Hello everybody,
I hang time again on a problem I have written with flask a restapi which works so far now I would like expand with conditional mysql queries. However, the question how I access the Variable “id” in the MYSQL “Select” . Thanks for your help

#!/usr/bin/python

from flask import Flask
from flask_restful import Resource, Api
from flask_restful import reqparse
from flask.ext.mysql import MySQL



mysql = MySQL()
app = Flask(__name__) 

# MySQL configurations
app.config['MYSQL_DATABASE_USER'] = 'xxx'
app.config['MYSQL_DATABASE_PASSWORD'] = 'xxxx'
app.config['MYSQL_DATABASE_DB'] = 'xxxxx'
app.config['MYSQL_DATABASE_HOST'] = 'localhost'


mysql.init_app(app)

api = Api(app)

class test(Resource):
def post(self):
    try:
        # Parse the arguments

        parser = reqparse.RequestParser()
        parser.add_argument('ID', type=str, help='Id of Item')
        args = parser.parse_args()

        id = str(args['ID'])
        conn = mysql.connect()
        cursor = conn.cursor()
        cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM `PowerSystem` WHERE ID=$(id)")
        items_list=[];
        for item in data:
            i = {
                'ID':str(item[0]),
                'Timestamp':str(item[1]),
                'batteryVoltage':str(item[2]),
                'batteryCurrent':str(item[3]),
                'solarVoltage':str(item[4]),
                'solarCurrent':str(item[5]),
                'loadVoltage':str(item[6]),
                'loadCurrent':str(item[7]),
                'batteryPower':str(item[8]),
                'solarPower':str(item[9]),
                'loadPower':str(item[10]),
                'batteryCharge':str(item[11])
            }
            items_list.append(i)

        return {'StatusCode':'200','Items':items_list}

        except Exception as e:
        return {'error': str(e)}


api.add_resource(test, '/test')


 if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(debug=TRUE,host='0.0.0.0')

app.run(debug=TRUE,host='0.0.0.0')

how is this line correct

 cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM `PowerSystem` WHERE ID=$(id)")

so that onlz the mysql data with the respective id is send

actual

 {"error": "(1305, u'FUNCTION xxxxx.$ does not exist')"}

is send back

but the result should like

{{
  "Items": [
{
  "batteryVoltage": "3.612",
  "solarVoltage": "4.725",
  "loadCurrent": "308.4",
  "ID": "112",
  "loadPower": "1.527",
  "loadVoltage": "4.952",
  "batteryCurrent": "283.2",
  "Timestamp": "2017-05-11 13:04:18",
  "solarCurrent": "191.2",
  "solarPower": "0.903",
  "batteryCharge": "24.86",
  "batteryPower": "1.023"
},
  ],
  "StatusCode": "200"
}

Thanks :)
