Let us move to working part of this trade button in this all you have to do is install flask and give a name as filenam.py and follow the code below:


from flask import Flask,render_template

app=Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/m')
def market():
    return render_template('tradeupstox.html')
if __name__=='__main__':
    app.run()

So from the above we can see that a render template is there which says tradeupstox.html for that you need to create an folder as templates and save this html+javascript in that folder as follows:

<upstox-tradebutton trade button-name=one></upstox-tradebutton>
     <script type="text/javascript">
         var upstoxTradesConfig = {
             "button-name": {
                 "one": [{
                     "token": 2885,
                     "symbol": "RELIANCE",
                     "exchange": "NSE",
                     "series": "EQ",
                     "quantity": 1,
                     "side": "buy",
                     "complexity": "simple",
                     "orderType": "m",
                     "position": "i",

                 }]
             }
         }
     </script>
