Find the Nearest Haunted House and Get Spooked!

Welcome to our Python Flask GPS guide! In this guide, we’ll show you how to use Python and Flask to create a web application that can find the nearest haunted house to your current location. We’ll also show you how to create a map to visualize the data.

To get started, we’ll need to install Flask. We can do this by running the following command:

Next, we’ll create a file called app.py in our project directory. We’ll add the following code to this file:

In this code, we’ve imported the necessary modules from Flask and defined our Flask application. We’ve also defined two routes: “/” and “/nearby”. The “/” route will render the index.html template, which will contain a form for the user to enter their current location. The “/nearby” route will take the user’s current location and find the nearest haunted house.

Next, we’ll create the index.html template. We’ll add the following code to this file:

In this template, we’ve added some conditional logic to render either the nearest haunted house or a “No haunted houses found” message.

Finally, we’ll need to implement the logic to find the nearest haunted house. We’ll do this in the nearby() function:

In this function, we first get the user’s current location.

If the user didn’t specify a location, we default to the coordinates for San Francisco.

Next, we need to implement the logic to find the nearest haunted house.

This will involve querying a database of haunted houses and finding the one closest to the user’s current location.

Now that we have our application built, we can run it locally to test it out. We can do this by running the following command:

If we enter our current location and submit the form, we should see the nearest haunted house displayed on the page.

We can also visualize this data on a map. To do this, we’ll need to sign up for a free API key from Google Maps. Once we have our API key, we can add the following code to our app.py file:

In this code, we’ve added a new route, “/map”. This route will render the map.html template, which will display a map of the user’s current location and the nearest haunted house.

Next, we’ll create the map.html template. We’ll add the following code to this file:

In this template, we’ve added a div with an id of “map”. We’ve also added a script that will create a map and add markers for the user’s current location and the nearest haunted house. Finally, we’ve added a script tag that will load the Google Maps API.

Now that we have our map template set up, we can go back to our app.py file and add the following code to the map() function:
