Allowing custom choices in form_choices?

[vincentwhales]

I really like using form_choices to guide my user into inputting into the create form.

However, it's limiting in the sense that my users can't use anything else not defined in form_choices.

Is there a way to have form_choices with an extra option, i.e. "Enter your own" so that users can input custom choices?

(I know form_choices is intended to limit what a user can enter. However, another use case will be to allow some flexibility in allowing our users enter a custom option)

from flask import Flask, render_template, request

app = Flask(__name__)

# Sample choices
choices = ['Option 1', 'Option 2', 'Option 3']

@app.route('/', methods=['GET'])
def index():
    return render_template('index.html', choices=choices)

@app.route('/process_form', methods=['POST'])
def process_form():
    selected_choice = request.form['choice']
    if selected_choice == 'custom':
        custom_input = request.form['customInput']
        # Handle custom input logic here
        return f"Custom input received: {custom_input}"
    else:
        # Handle selected choice logic here
        return f"Selected choice: {selected_choice}"

    app.run(debug=True)
