Hi,

my streamlit app contains some nodejs modules like vega-lite vega-cli canvas.  
Usually I install them via npm install during the setup (npm install …). How to deploy this on streamlit-sharing?

A requirement.txt would not be sufficient. I don’t host these files via github since they are coming from  
external and are dynamically changing modules.

How to achieve that?  
Thanks

Hi @Jschaef, welcome to the Streamlit community!

I have to say, I don’t believe we’ve planned for that use case. Do you have a public repo that I can share with our product managers, so they can understand what your app looks like?

Best,  
Randy

Hi Randy,

sorry for the late response. My repo is: [GitHub - jschaef/sar\_file\_analyzer: graphical analyzis of sar files](https://github.com/jschaef/sar_file_analyzer/).  
I just thought this would be easy to achieve and I have just missed how to do it.  
But now I learn that this use case was not planned/implemented.

Thanks for your support and for this awesome frame work,  
Jochen
