Create a Shinylive sharelink for Python Shiny apps — shinylive_py

Generates a shareable URL for Python Shiny applications that can run in the browser using Shinylive. The app files are encoded and embedded in the URL.

Usage

shinylive_py_link(files, mode = "editor", header = TRUE, base_url = NULL)

Arguments

files: Named list where names are filenames and values are file content as character strings. For single-file apps, can also pass a character string as the app.py content.
mode: Shinylive mode: "editor" (show code editor) or "app" (show app only)
header: Logical. Whether to show header in app mode (default: TRUE)
base_url: Custom Shinylive base URL. If NULL, uses default Shinylive URL

Value

shinylive_link object containing the Shinylive URL and metadata

Examples

# Simple single-file Python Shiny app
app_code <- '
from shiny import App, render, ui

app_ui = ui.page_fluid(
    ui.h2("Hello Shinylive!"),
    ui.input_slider("n", "N", 0, 100, 20),
    ui.output_text_verbatim("txt"),
)

def server(input, output, session):
    @output
    @render.text
    def txt():
        return f"n*2 is {input.n() * 2}"

app = App(app_ui, server)

link <- shinylive_py_link(app_code, mode = "app")
