Existing code modification:

• use DictCursor in MySQL initialization
• remove dictionary=True from cursor
• use json package to convert dictionary items to json format

app.py:

import json
from flask import Flask
from flaskext.mysql import MySQL
from pymysql.cursors import DictCursor

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['MYSQL_DATABASE_USER'] = 'root'
app.config['MYSQL_DATABASE_PASSWORD'] = '123'
app.config['MYSQL_DATABASE_DB'] = 'practice_db'
app.config['MYSQL_DATABASE_HOST'] = 'localhost'
mysql = MySQL(cursorclass=DictCursor)
mysql.init_app(app)
conn = mysql.connect()

@app.route("/", methods=['GET'])defhome():
    email_address = 'dummy@example.com'
    cursor = conn.cursor();
    cursor.execute(
            'SELECT * FROM user_table WHERE email = (%s)', (email_address,)
        )
    users = cursor.fetchall()
    return json.dumps(users)

app.run(debug=True)
