Deploying a Streamlit app

The snow streamlit deploy command creates a new Streamlit object inside your chosen database and schema. By default, this command looks for a main file called streamlit_app.py in your current working directory.

Prerequisites

Before deploying a Streamlit app with Snowflake CLI, you should meet the following prerequisites:

  • Ensure that you have a local Streamlit app with the correct directory structure and snowflake.yml project definition file must exist.

  • Ensure that your account has the correct privileges as described in Privileges required to create and use a Streamlit app.

  • Ensure that you can create or have access to a named stage where you can upload your Streamlit app files.

How to deploy a Streamlit app

The snow streamlit deploy command uploads local files to a stage and creates a new Streamlit object inside your chosen database and schema. Your project definition file should specify the main Python file and query warehouse.

  • --replace: Replaces the specified Streamlit app, if it already exists.

  • --open: Opens the Streamlit app in your default browser after deploying the app.

By default the command automatically deploys the environment.yml file and the content of the pages/ directory, if any of those exists. You can use different files by using command line options.
