Streamlit Component for Comments

Streamlit Comments Component

This component display comments / notes in your app. I am using it in combination with a streamlit form to collect user feedback. The feedback is saved in an sql table.

Check out the live demo!

Installation

To install st_comments, you can use pip:

pip install st_comments

Usage

To use the st_comments component, you just need to import it in your Streamlit script and call it like any other Streamlit function:

from st_comments import st_comments

def st_comments(comments,delete_keyword="", max_height="500px",custom_css="",key="st_comments",min_height="100px",
                custom_font_awesome_url = "https://kit.fontawesome.com/c7cbba6207.js", delete_user="all")

Parameters

• comments: List of comments to be displayed. Default: []
  

#Example Input:
comments = [
    {"id": 1, "user": "User 1", "date": "2023-01-01", "text": "Comment 1"},
    {"id": 2, "user": "User 2", "date": "2023-01-02", "text": "Comment 2"},

    {"id": 6, "user": "User 3", "date": "2023-01-03", "text": "Comment 3"},
]

• delete_keyword: Text that will be displayed in the delete button (accepts HTML). Default: ""
  

• max_height: Maximum height of the component. Default: "500px"
  

• custom_css: Custom CSS to be applied to the table. Can just be a string like .MuiTableCell-root {color:red;} Default: "". The text will be rendered in <style> tags above the component.
  

• key: Key of the component. Default: "st_comments"
  

• min_height: Minimum height of the component. Default: "100px"
  

• custom_font_awesome_url: URL of the font awesome library. Default: "https://kit.fontawesome.com/c7cbba6207.js".
  

• delete_user: If "all", all users can delete all comments. If "own", users can only delete their own comments. Default: "all", if "none" no comments can be deleted
  

Note worthy

"Deleting" a will not actually delete anything. What happens is that the comments will not be visible in the frontend anymore and that the component returns a the orginial input with the deleted comment missing.
