streamlit

I'm using streamlit on my localhost for a POC - I got to know of this from replit - for demos streamlit is perfect. Is it possible to run streamlit on OpalStack shared servers ?

anjanesh when trying to determine if you can run something on Opalstack:

Check its system requirements and then compare that to what's available on your Opalstack server. If they are compatible or if the dependency can be built on your Opalstack server then move to the next step.
Check its installation documentation to see if it requires root access. If it does then there's a chance that you won't be able to run it on Opalstack but it still might be possible.
If it does not require root access then you will probably be able to run it on Opalstack.

I think it doesn't require root access since its all pip install.
But my main concern is to how we can run streamlit run main.py when creating an application ? Python/uWsgi ?

anjanesh if you're using uwsgi then you don't run the app via its own run command, you instead configure uwsgi to serve the app's WSGI handler.

If you can find them, the deploy docs for streamlit might have more information.

I checked the Streamlit documentation, according to them WSGI is not supported: https://docs.streamlit.io/knowledge-base/deploy/does-streamlit-support-wsgi-protocol

Since WSGI is not supported you will not be able to run the app via uWSGI. Instead you'll run the app directly on its assigned port. According to the documentation at https://docs.streamlit.io/develop/concepts/configuration/options you can set the port with a command line flag when starting the app like so (replacing NNNNN with your port):

streamlit run /home/user/apps/streamlit/yourapp.py --server.port NNNNN

You can use your existing Python/uWSGI app for this, just don't run the bundled uwsgi server, instead run streamlit on the assigned port as shown above.

Thanks again for your amazing support - got it working.

nohup streamlit run myapp/vision.py --server.port 12345 2>&1 &

Apparently Gemini API isn't available in Germany region whereas I'm at opal5 which is in Frankfurt.
