Bite 344. Return an HTML response
Login and get codingYou use FastAPI primarily to build APIs, but it can also be used as a web framework (although we think Django is a better option for this).
You can install Jinja2 and return a template response as shown here.
However on our platform we work with single test and exercise files so in this Bite you will return an
HTMLResponsewith embedded HTML (docs). The effect will be the same though: the food log of a user in a nice html table!
Food Added Servings Calories (kcal) egg 2022-03-13 11:02:37.500968 1.5 x piece 117.0 oatmeal 2022-03-13 11:02:37.500968 2.0 x 100 grams 672.0
We provided theshow_foods_for_userendpoint stub, add the logic to build up the HTML for the response. For your convenience we already added some template constants you can use:HTML_TEMPLATEandTABLE_ROW.Here is what the final HTML response would look like as per the tests:
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<title>Food log for Julian</title>
</head>
<body>
<table>
<thead>
<th>Food</th>
