This is more of a question than anything, i am using pglet for my application and it took me a while to build it with such and i also want to use gauth but without using Flask to first create another webpage and then redirect etc. Additionally, storing things like the account id in cache or something would be awesome aswell but that is another thing haha. I apologies if i sound stupid or anything with my question, i most likely am being such.

Any ideas would be appreciated!

At present, the current pglet limitations are listed as: Pages

• {account_name} can be anything.
• Anonymous client can create up to 10 pages per hour.
• Once a page is created from a certain IP it must be updated from the same IP; otherwise page name could not be reused untill the page is expired and its name reclaimed.
• Shared page lifetime is limited to 6 hours since the last time it was updated.
• App page lifetime is limited to 60 minutes since the last time any app session was updated.

Sessions

• Anonymous client can create up to 10 app sessions per hour.
• App page session lifetime is limited to 60 minutes since the last time it was accessed or updated.
• When a host client serving an app page is disconnected all app sessions are immediately invalidated. That's a convenient "feature" during beta-testing because when user restarts the app and refreshes the page in the browser they'll start a new session.

Page size

• Maximum size of a page or app session is limited to 1 MB.

As an administrator running a pglet server it would be very useful if some/all of these options could be configured via a config file.

The value added would be that it would allow an administrator more flexibility and control over the performance/constraints that the pglet app can offer according to the resources of the server it is on.

As a possible solution I would suggest something like https://github.com/spf13/viper as a mature solution for golang app config via config files and environment variables. It supports multiple file formats for your config files e.g. JSON, YAML, INI etc.

This would also allow users to deploy different configs for e.g. dev/test/staging/prod environments

Is there a way to run arbitrary HTML code in pglet? As an example streamlit has that ability via an option "run_unsafe_html"

In particular I am interested in embedding videos.

run greeter.sh at https://pglet.io/docs/tutorials/bash/ I got below duplicated multiple line errors:

pglet.sh: line 217: .events: No such file or directory

As an administrator installing pglet, I would like to have the flexibility to determine my own location e.g. /usr/local/bin/ for the application binary and any application data to be installed (respecting my permissions).

The value added would be that it gives me the control to organize binaries and application data on my operation system according to my own desire or to conform to constraints placed on me by a third party.

A simple solution would be that the installation script would check an environment variable e.g. $PGLET_INSTALL_DIR is set, and install to that location, and if it is not set then it falls back to the application developers chosen location.

The only implication with this is that in future if any user-specific files are needed by pglet then it should look for them from standardized locations and again fall back if needed. as a suggested solution pglet installations could conform to the XDG base dir standard ( see freedesktop.org or the arch wiki )

so for example it could check: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pglet/ $XDG_DATA_HOME/pglet/ $XDG_CACHE_HOME/pglet/ and fall back as necessary.

I was very confused for about 20 minutes today as to why my pglet pages were going to console.pglet.io and not my local machine. It wasn't until I happened to go to the blog page and saw the default behavior had changed and I needed to set PGLET_LOCAL to true (or similar in the python code)

There may be other places that need to be updated, but I haven't searched for them

Hi,

I'm new to pglet. I have the latest version 0.4.6 and I'm trying the simplest code possible that I could find:

import pglet from pglet import Text

page = pglet.page("my-app", local=True) # this page will start a local Pglet server page.add(Text('Hello, localhost!'))

I'm using python3 and it was installed with pip3. The error is always:

python3 hello.py 1 err 17:36:03 FATA[2021-12-08T17:36:12+01:00] Gave up connecting to Client service after 20 attemps Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/eperez/Documents/workspace/python/pglet/hello.py", line 4, in <module> page = pglet.page("my-app", local=True) # this page will start a local Pglet server File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pglet/pglet.py", line 42, in page exe_result = subprocess.check_output(pargs).decode("utf-8").strip() File "/usr/local/Cellar/[email protected]/3.9.8/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/subprocess.py", line 424, in check_output return run(*popenargs, stdout=PIPE, timeout=timeout, check=True, File "/usr/local/Cellar/[email protected]/3.9.8/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/lib/python3.9/subprocess.py", line 528, in run raise CalledProcessError(retcode, process.args, subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pglet/bin/darwin-amd64/pglet', 'page', 'my-app', '--local', '--all-events']' returned non-zero exit status 1.

I'm using Mac OS (latest version too) and I just want to work with local server on my machine.

Thank you.

I've gotten to the Python tutorial step in which we create the reusable TodoApp class and when I run the code I get the following error:

level=fatal msg="Connect app error: Page name is already taken"

I tried writing my own code following the example and then copied the example code, and the result was the same in both cases.

Do I need to create a config file to make this work, or should it work on its own?

Cheers, todo.txt

When a Close command is sent, the event loop tries to reopen the closed event pipe. We remove the event pipe filename during the closing function and then check for an empty filename during the event loop.

Currently

Seems that the on_change event of Textbox is triggered by the input js event (i.e. while typing), and not triggered by the change js event (e.g. while pressing enter or navigating away from the control. You can experiment with this here.

Issue

If I want to clean up the control value in the event handler, e.g. stripping extra white space from beginning and end. As the event is triggered on input, with this cleaning operation I can no longer enter whitespace, i.e. the space between words, without resorting to gymnastics like first typing the words together and then going back to insert the space.

Request

It would be nice if we have on_input and on_change separately, corresponding to the standard HTML/js logic for clarity. This same would apply to all controls using the HTML <input> tag as the underlying element (SpinButton etc.)

This might break some of the current samples, but the fix should be relatively simple in most cases, just add the same handler to on_input that you might now have for on_change.

Bumps terser from 4.8.0 to 4.8.1.
