Hello im creating a easy to use Local host database where the database builds itself on your pc so it can be accessed with or without internet and in the reading side of it i send through the varibles to the Module code from my test code but after reading it im not sure how to send the contence back to the reader. Any ideas?

Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

well of course

#

you're not returning anything

#

from your read function

#

so it'll return None

How can i update the variable "Content" to send back over to the user?

dreamy crane
#

so you want the variable Test to have the values of Content?

Ye so what it is is you send over the key which is connected to a file and when you send that DB.Read(Key = "testKey"), the Module looks for that key in its data folder and reads what is connected in that key (Which should output as "Test") but im not sure how to send what the Content of that key is back to the test.py

in your read function change the last line from return to return Content
