AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'update'

[Boukman]

Trying to create a web app using streamlit and fastai, I get the following error when I click on “classify.”

***AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'update'***

Weirdly enough, I tried the exact same method last year with no trouble. Could anyone suggest a solution.

Here is the traceback below:

Hi @Boukman -

Posting the code that generated this error would be helpful, as the traceback appears to be referring to one of the packages you are using.

Best,
Randy

Hi Randy, Thank you for the follow-up.

Here it is below:

%%writefile app.py

import numpy as np
from skimage.io import imread
from skimage.transform import resize

path = Path()
learn_inf = load_learner(path/'sclassifier.pkl')
class Predict:
    def __init__(self, filename):
        self.learn_inference = load_learner(Path()/filename)
        self.img = self.get_image_from_upload()
        if self.img is not None:
            self.display_output()
            self.get_prediction()
    
    @staticmethod
    def get_image_from_upload():
        uploaded_file = st.file_uploader("Upload Files",type=['png','jpeg', 'jpg'])
        if uploaded_file is not None:
            return PILImage.create((uploaded_file))
        return None

    def display_output(self):
        st.image(self.img.to_thumb(500,500), caption='Uploaded Image')

    def get_prediction(self):

        if st.button('Classify'):
            pred, pred_idx, probs = self.learn_inference.predict(self.img)
            st.write(f'Prediction: {pred}; Probability: {probs[pred_idx]:.04f}')
        else: 
            st.write(f'Click the button to classify') 

if __name__=='__main__':

    file_name='sclassifier.pkl'

    predictor = Predict(file_name)

@randyzwitch Is that enough information?

[Boukman]

Here is a bit more information @randyzwitch

When I run the classifier within Google Colab it works fine and makes the correct predictions.

The problem starts when I try to run the classifier on a browser using streamlit and ngrok. As soon as I click ‘classify’ I get the long error message posted above.

Below in the picture files is all of the code I use in Google Colab (in order) after successfully testing the classifier and before I get the error when I try using it in a web browser. In fact here, I’ll include the link to the classifier so you can test it out for yourself and see the error in realtime, although Colab may shut it down at any point so might not be running when you read this.

Unfortunately, I don’t have any experience trying to run Streamlit from a notebook and using ngrok.
