Streamlit + docker not working

[Maria_Isabel_Meneses]

Hi,
I´m trying to dockerize an app made with streamlit but I´ve tried for four days so far and nothing has worked for me.
It takes ages to build the image and when I try to run it, it returns: /bin/sh: 1: streamlit: not found .
This is my docker file (This is my first time using docker )

FROM continuumio/miniconda3

ENV LC_ALL=C.UTF-8

ENV LANG=C.UTF-8

RUN mkdir -p /root/.streamlit

RUN bash -c 'echo -e "\

WORKDIR /ModelosComercio

EXPOSE 8501

ADD environment.yml .

RUN conda env create --file environment.yml

CMD streamlit run ModelosStreamlit.py

Any help will be apreciated.

Thanks

Hi @Maria_Isabel_Meneses,

Thanks for posting!

Have you checked out our new doc on deploying with Docker?

Not actually but I´m working with conda. Would it be the same if instead of “environment.yml” I try to install “requirements.txt” with pip?
I´ve tried with pip and I get the same error so I don´t really know how to handle this pip/conda thing

[Maria_Isabel_Meneses]

I´ve just follow the new doc and I get this error when I try to do it with my project: docker: Error response from daemon: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: exec: “streamlit”: executable file not found in $PATH: unknown.

What can I do?

unable to start container process: exec: “streamlit”: executable file not found in $PATH: unknown.

Have you tried following the doc (i.e. using the exact Dockerfile and docker run command in the doc and using pip and requirements.txt instead of conda?

How to use Streamlit in Docker

Thanks for the response! I made that change and it gave me a more helpful error message: docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:346: starting container process caused "exec: \"streamlit\": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown. ERRO[0001] error waiting for container: context canceled I suppose this means that my conda environment is not getting installed/activated properly. From what I understand, they can be tricky to configure with Docker. I’…

How to use Streamlit in Docker

For anyone else who may run into the same issue, here was my solution: I was not able to get my conda environment working with Docker, so I resorted to using pip with the following requirements.txt file: altair==3.3.0 joblib==0.13.2 pandas==0.25.1 numpy==1.17.2 scikit-learn==0.21.3 matplotlib==3.1.1 streamlit==0.51.0 Then, I created a simpler Dockerfile, inspired by this blog: # base image FROM python:3.7 # streamlit-specific commands RUN mkdir -p /root/.streamlit RUN bash -c 'echo -e "\ [g…

Yes, I´ve tried with pip and requirements.txt. Same result

I’m at a loss as I’m unable to reproduce the behavior. I’ll defer to the rest of the community for solutions

The problem is that it can’t find the streamlit executable. In the case of installing streamlit with conda, the streamlit executable will be in miniconda3/bin/streamlit

Hi all, I got the same error with a warning message: add the directory root/.local/bin to the path, ‘/root/.local/bin’ which is not on PATH..

I added
ENV PATH=“${PATH}:/root/.local/bin” to the Dockerfile and I was able to run streamlit from within the docker file successfully.

I am not able to keep the docker container with my streamlit app running. The example works fine, but when I pull data using snowflake.connector, the container closes as soon as the query completes (and before all the other stuff I have in my app).
in Dockerfile:
FROM python:3.9-slim
in requirements.txt:
snowflake-connector-python~=2.7.2

I tried putting a decorator above the function to pull the data (@st.experimental_memo(persist=True))
I tried ChatGPT’s idea to add a while True: sleep(1) at the end of the script.

Any other suggestions?
