Hello Group, Adam Kennedy here from the Andrews Forest LTER in Oregon, USA. I recently read your 2020 paper on Wiz and wanted to test an install of the web-based app on the Andrews Forest webpage (https://andrewsforest.oregonstate.edu/data/streaming). I have the local instance running on the included Iris dataset on a Windows 10 machine (py 3.7.x and would like to build out a full featured instance using data from our streaming/realtime logger output.

Is there an active user group that focuses on continued development and troubleshooting of this app? I'd like to get involved if there is something like that.

Thanks in advance, Adam

Hi Adam,

Thanks for your interest in the app. Currently, we upkeep the version of the app in the paper. We have daily users of that app, mostly from the academic community. A few users have forked this repository to build their own apps, but there is not much activity in this repo. Each full featured app will have unique requirements when deployed. The Dash community forum page has lots of contributions and will be much more useful than any user group from this repo anyway.

Realtime outputs in a Dash app are relatively straightforward to do using the dcc.Interval() component. You can read about using that for live updates here. We use that component in one of our examples to "stream" live data in a plot as it is recorded.

If you only want live data for a handful of plots or logger outputs, you can either embed Dash into your current website or it may be easier to use JavaScript alone to retrieve and display plots/logger output.

Hey thanks again for this. Sounds like a good plan. Can you send out a password to the online version you upkeep? I've only been able to access the local version and the examples. Have a great rest of your week.
