A hidden streamlit component that allows client side (javascript) to trigger events on the server side (python) and vice versa

Project description

Streamlit Bridge PyPI License

Two Streamlit components that allow client side (javascript) to send data to the server side (python) and render HTML content without being processed by Markdown.

Introduction

These two components offer more flexibility in creating Streamlit applications by allowing you to easily incorporate HTML and JS.

Here are some examples:

  1. List of inline buttons Streamlit inline buttons

    import streamlit as st
    from st_bridge import bridge, html
    
    data = bridge("my-bridge", default="no button is clicked")
    
    html("""
    <button onClick="stBridges.send('my-bridge', 'button 1 is clicked')">Button 1</button>
    <button onClick="stBridges.send('my-bridge', 'button 2 is clicked')">Button 2</button>
    <button onClick="stBridges.send('my-bridge', 'button 3 is clicked')">Button 3</button>
    """)
    
    st.write(data)
    
  2. Timer

Installation

pip install streamlit-bridge

API

Bridge Component

def bridge(
    name: str,
    default: Optional[Any] = None,
    key: Optional[str] = None,
):
    """Create a new instance of "Streamlit Bridge", allowing call from the client to
    the server.

    Everytime JS client send data to the server, streamlit will trigger a rerun and the data
    is returned by this function.

    Args:
        name: unique name of the bridge to identify the bridge Javascript's call will send data to
        default: the initial return value of the component before the user has interacted with it.
        key: streamlit component's id
    """

To send data from the client to a corresponding bridge component with <bridge-name>, use the function: window.stBridges.send(<bridge-name>, <data>); or window.parent.stBridges.send(<bridge-name>, <data>); if you are running it inside an component (i.e., running inside an iframe).

HTML Component

def html(html: str, iframe: bool = False, key: Optional[str]=None) -> None:
    """Render HTML in Streamlit without being processed by Markdown.

    Args:
        html: HTML to render
        iframe: whether to render the HTML in an iframe or in the main document.
                By default streamlit component is rendered inside an iframe, so by
                setting it to false, we allow the HTML to rendered in the main document.
        key: streamlit component's id
    """
    pass

Development

  • To build a streamlit component after modifying them:
    • visiting their folder: st_bridge/<component>
    • run yarn install; yarn build
  • To test a component interactively, set _RELEASE = False in st_bridge/<component>.py and run streamlit run st_bridge/<component>.py
  • To release, build the streamlit components first, then run poetry publish --build.
