try copypasting the st_on_hover_tabs folder to place where .exe is created.
Hello everyone,
So I tried this method for the executable but I encountered a problem when I want to launch the executable. When I just the terminal to launch it I have no problem it launch [on server.port 8501] but when I double click on it, it deployed on server port 3000 telling me:
2023-05-12 18:12:39.928 DEBUG streamlit.web.server.server: Starting server...
2023-05-12 18:12:39.929 DEBUG streamlit.web.server.server: Serving static content from the Node dev server
2023-05-12 18:12:39.937 DEBUG streamlit.web.server.server: Server started on port 8501
2023-05-12 18:12:39.938 DEBUG streamlit.runtime.runtime: Runtime state: RuntimeState.INITIAL -> RuntimeState.NO_SESSIONS_CONNECTED
2023-05-12 18:12:40.212 DEBUG git.cmd: Popen(['git', 'version'], cwd=/Users/c.bajan, universal_newlines=False, shell=None, istream=None)
2023-05-12 18:12:40.250 DEBUG git.cmd: Popen(['git', 'version'], cwd=/Users/c.bajan, universal_newlines=False, shell=None, istream=None)
I even check with: lsof -ti tcp:8501 | xargs kill to be sure to have nothing on this port but no change.
Does someone else encountered this issue and tell me what to do?
@charlesmyu Thanks a lot it works like a charm with streamlit 1.22 and pyinstaller 5.10 .
@littletuna Thanks too for the import, that’s indeed an odd behaviour.
But do you have a problem with session.state ? since the app is first read in python and not with streamlit, we can get this error:
2023-05-23 09:26:43.640 WARNING streamlit.runtime.state.session_state_proxy: Session state does not function when running a script without `streamlit run`
Any work around this ? Execept using Global variables ?
I just replied to post on Stack Exchange about bundling a Streamlit app into an executable. I know this feature request is linked way, way up in this topic, but I feel like it’s very underrated given how often I see this issue.
Anyone who wants Streamlit to be easier to package into a self-contained executable, please vote on this feature request so the devs can track its popularity.
Feel free to comment about your use case/scenario that makes it a desirable feature for you over some local server deployment. If the devs know people want it (and why they want it) that will increase the likelihood of it getting attention.

@charlesmyu thanks for the info, it really saved so much time for the newer versions of streamlit
However, I’m getting problems with streamlit 1.22, pyinstaller 5.11. If my app doesn’t use st.table, I’m fine, but if I use st.table, I’m stuck.
It works when run with python, but when I run pyinstaller, it complains of missing hidden import “pyarrow.compat”. which is fine until I use st.table, at which point it throws exception:

Any advice would be appreciated. Meanwhile, I’m going to convert it to a markdown table so it would work, but would much prefer st.table
