How does Python Flask handle database requests?
Flask supports a database-powered application (RDBS). Such a system requires creating a schema, which needs piping the schema.sql file into the sqlite3 command. So, we need to install the sqlite3 command in order to create or initiate the database in Flask.
 
Flask allows to request for a database in three ways :
 
before_request() : They are called before a request and pass no arguments.
after_request() : They are called after a request and pass the response that will be sent to the client.
teardown_request() : They are called in a situation when an exception is raised and responses are not guaranteed. They are called after the response has been constructed. They are not allowed to modify the request, and their values are ignored.
