Great work on Task List, Sana! You earned a 🟢 on this project!
From your code, I can see that you've got a nice handle on Flask and SqlAlchemy. Good to see you consistently using jsonify and I'd encourage you to reuse your instance method to_json() in your Goal and Task classes to help keep your methods concise
I added a few comments about using list comprehension and some refactors you could make to avoid repetition. For example, implementing a create class method for Goal and Task and a validate helper function will DRY your code up.
I noticed you have a couple of commits, I'd encourage you to practice making smaller frequent commits - perhaps a commit after you finish a route or create a model, or even after you complete a wave.
Let me know if you have any questions. Congrats on finishing Unit 2!

Nice error handling here! We can't assume that clients will send valid requests to our API so we have to anticipate a scenario where the req doesn't have the keys your method will need to access.

You can create a routes directory under the app directory and then put goal_routes.py and task_routes.py in it to keep your project structure organized

Nice work using nullable=False here

Nice work using nullable=False here

Consider using a more descriptive name for this variable, something like task_dict
| if sort_query == "asc": | ||
| tasks = Task.query.order_by(Task.title.asc()).all() | ||
| elif sort_query == "desc": | ||
| tasks = Task.query.order_by(Task.title.desc()).all() |

with order_by() you don't need to use chain .all() to the end of this statement.

In addition to error handling in POST requests, PUT requests would also be more robust with error handing to make sure we don't have unhandled KeyErrors

👍 having this imported helper method keeps your method nice and short
| task = Task.query.get(task_id) | ||
|
|

| if not task: | ||
| return abort(make_response({"message": f"Task {task_id} is not found"}, 404)) |

When you start to see repeated code or repeated patterns of code, it's usually a good indicator that a helper function can be created and used
| assert response.status_code == 200 | ||
| assert "goal" in response_body | ||
| assert response_body == { | ||
| "goal": { | ||
| "id": 1, | ||
| "title": "Updated Goal Title", | ||
| } | ||
| } | ||
|
|
||
| goal = Goal.query.get(1) | ||
| assert goal.title == "Updated Goal Title" |
