Create a Streamlit site

Streamlit doesn't have built-in support for Jupyter notebooks, so you need to create a .py file to be the entry point for the app. You'll have to be logged into DataLabs. We'll assume you have already saved your Streamlit app into a file named app.py in your storage, and installed Streamlit into a Conda environment called my-env.

In your project, navigate to Sites:

Choose Create Site and fill out the form. Set Source Path to the directory containing your Streamlit file, such as /data/notebooks/jupyterlab-notebook, and set Filename to the name of the file itself, such as app.py. Also set the Conda environment path to point to the environment with Streamlit installed, in this example /data/conda/my-env.

Once the environment and storage are set up, the Streamlit app runs in the same Conda environment as any notebooks using that environment, and has filesystem access to the whole store. This means that it can access any data files and assets that are present in the store.
