Top-level package for Fast Dash.

FastDash

Fast Dash app object containing automatically generated UI components and callbacks.

This is the primary Fast Dash data structure. Can be thought of as a wrapper around a flask WSGI application. It has in-built support for automated UI generation and sets all parameters required for Fast Dash app deployment.

        Args:
            callback_fn (func): Python function that Fast Dash deploys. \
                This function guides the behavior of and interaction between input and output components.

            layout (str, optional): App layout style. Currently supports 'base' and 'sidebar'. Defaults to sidebar.

            mosaic (str): Mosaic array layout, if sidebar layout is selected.

            inputs (Fast component, list of Fast components, optional): Components to represent inputs of the callback function.\
                Defaults to None. If `None`, Fast Dash attempts to infer the best components from callback function's type \
                hints and default values. In the absence of type hints, default components are all `Text`.

            outputs (Fast component, list of Fast components, optional): Components to represent outputs of the callback function.\
                Defaults to None. If `None`, Fast Dash attempts to infer the best components from callback function's type hints.\
                In the absence of type hints, default components are all `Text`.

            output_labels(list of string labels or "infer" or None, optional): Labels given to the output components. If None, inputs are\
                set labeled integers starting at 1 (Output 1, Output 2, and so on). If "infer", labels are inferred from the function\
                signature. Defaults to infer.

            title (str, optional): Title given to the app. If `None`, function name (assumed to be in snake case)\
                is converted to title case. Defaults to None.

            title_image_path (str, optional): Path (local or URL) of the app title image. Defaults to None.

            subheader (str, optional): Subheader of the app, displayed below the title image and title\
                If `None`, Fast Dash tries to use the callback function's docstring instead. Defaults to None.


            github_url (str, optional): GitHub URL for branding. Displays a GitHub logo in the navbar, which takes users to the\
                specified URL. Defaults to None.

            linkedin_url (str, optional): LinkedIn URL for branding Displays a LinkedIn logo in the navbar, which takes users to the\
                specified URL. Defaults to None.

            twitter_url (str, optional): Twitter URL for branding. Displays a Twitter logo in the navbar, which takes users to the\
                specified URL. Defaults to None.

            navbar (bool, optional): Display navbar. Defaults to True.

            footer (bool, optional): Display footer. Defaults to True.

            about (Union[str, bool], optional): App description to display on clicking the `About` button. If True, content is inferred from\
                the docstring of the callback function. If string, content is used directly as markdown. \
                `About` is hidden if False or None. Defaults to True.

            theme (str, optional): Apply theme to the app.All available themes can be found at https://bootswatch.com/. Defaults to JOURNAL. 

            update_live (bool, optional): Enable hot reloading. If the number of inputs is 0, this is set to True automatically. Defaults to False.

            port (int, optional): Port to which the app should be deployed. Defaults to 8080.

            mode (str, optional): Mode in which to launch the app. Acceptable options are `None`, `jupyterlab`, `inline`, 'external`.\
                Defaults to None.

            minimal (bool, optional): Display minimal version by hiding navbar, title, title image, subheader and footer. Defaults to False.

            disable_logs (bool, optional): Hide app logs. Sets logger level to `ERROR`. Defaults to False.

            scale_height (float, optional): Height of the app container is enlarged as a multiple of this. Defaults to 1.

            run_kwargs (dict, optional): All values from this variable are passed to Dash's `.run` method.

    Function decorator / wrapper for Fast Dash.

    Args:
        callback_fn (func): Python function that Fast Dash deploys. \
            This function guides the behavior of and interaction between input and output components.

        layout (str, optional): App layout style. Currently supports 'base' and 'sidebar'. Defaults to sidebar.

        mosaic (str): Mosaic array layout, if sidebar layout is selected.

        inputs (Fast component, list of Fast components, optional): Components to represent inputs of the callback function.\
            Defaults to None. If `None`, Fast Dash attempts to infer the best components from callback function's type \
            hints and default values. In the absence of type hints, default components are all `Text`.

        outputs (Fast component, list of Fast components, optional): Components to represent outputs of the callback function.\
            Defaults to None. If `None`, Fast Dash attempts to infer the best components from callback function's type hints.\
            In the absence of type hints, default components are all `Text`.

        output_labels(list of string labels or "infer" or None, optional): Labels given to the output components. If None, inputs are\
            set labeled integers starting at 1 (Output 1, Output 2, and so on). If "infer", labels are inferred from the function\
            signature. Defaults to infer.

        title (str, optional): Title given to the app. If `None`, function name (assumed to be in snake case)\
            is converted to title case. Defaults to None.

        title_image_path (str, optional): Path (local or URL) of the app title image. Defaults to None.

        subheader (str, optional): Subheader of the app, displayed below the title image and title\
            If `None`, Fast Dash tries to use the callback function's docstring instead. Defaults to None.


        github_url (str, optional): GitHub URL for branding. Displays a GitHub logo in the navbar, which takes users to the\
            specified URL. Defaults to None.

        linkedin_url (str, optional): LinkedIn URL for branding Displays a LinkedIn logo in the navbar, which takes users to the\
            specified URL. Defaults to None.

        twitter_url (str, optional): Twitter URL for branding. Displays a Twitter logo in the navbar, which takes users to the\
            specified URL. Defaults to None.

        navbar (bool, optional): Display navbar. Defaults to True.

        footer (bool, optional): Display footer. Defaults to True.

        about (Union[str, bool], optional): App description to display on clicking the `About` button. If True, content is inferred from\
            the docstring of the callback function. If string, content is used directly as markdown. \
            `About` is hidden if False or None. Defaults to True.

        theme (str, optional): Apply theme to the app.All available themes can be found at https://bootswatch.com/. Defaults to JOURNAL. 

        update_live (bool, optional): Enable hot reloading. If the number of inputs is 0, this is set to True automatically. Defaults to False.

        port (int, optional): Port to which the app should be deployed. Defaults to 8080.

        mode (str, optional): Mode in which to launch the app. Acceptable options are `None`, `jupyterlab`, `inline`, 'external`.\
            Defaults to None.

        minimal (bool, optional): Display minimal version by hiding navbar, title, title image, subheader and footer. Defaults to False.

        disable_logs (bool, optional): Hide app logs. Sets logger level to `ERROR`. Defaults to False.

        scale_height (float, optional): Height of the app container is enlarged as a multiple of this. Defaults to 1.

        run_kwargs (dict, optional): All values from this variable are passed to Dash's `.run` method.
