Flask route handler that renders the main workspace interface template for authenticated users.

Purpose

This function serves as the entry point to the application's main workspace interface. It is a Flask view function that handles GET requests to the '/workspace' route and requires user authentication via the 'require_auth' decorator. The function renders and returns the 'new_workspace.html' template, which likely contains the primary user interface for document editing, data analysis, and other workspace features.

Source Code

def workspace():
    """Main workspace interface"""
    return render_template('new_workspace.html')

Return Value

Returns a rendered HTML template (new_workspace.html) as a Flask Response object. This template contains the main workspace user interface with all necessary JavaScript, CSS, and HTML structure for the application's primary functionality.

Dependencies

• flask

Required Imports

from flask import render_template

Usage Example

# In a Flask application file
from flask import Flask, render_template
from functools import wraps

app = Flask(__name__)
app.secret_key = 'your-secret-key'

# Define require_auth decorator
def require_auth(f):
    @wraps(f)
    def decorated_function(*args, **kwargs):
        # Check if user is authenticated
        if 'user_id' not in session:
            return redirect(url_for('login'))
        return f(*args, **kwargs)
    return decorated_function

# Define the workspace route
@app.route('/workspace')
@require_auth
def workspace():
    """Main workspace interface"""
    return render_template('new_workspace.html')

# Access the workspace
# Navigate to: http://localhost:5000/workspace
# (after successful authentication)

Best Practices

• Ensure the 'new_workspace.html' template file exists in the templates directory before deploying
• The require_auth decorator should handle authentication failures gracefully with proper redirects
• Consider adding error handling for template rendering failures
• Ensure proper session configuration for authentication to persist across requests
• Consider passing context variables to the template if workspace needs user-specific data
• Use Flask's url_for() function when linking to this route from other templates
• Implement proper CSRF protection for any forms in the workspace template
• Consider adding logging to track workspace access for security auditing
• Ensure the route is protected by HTTPS in production environments
