Trigger the objects Update

[mamaral]

I have a function that checks every minute if the database info has been update, and if so, it execute another function that updates the dataframe.
After that i would like to update the objects, but if i do so with dcc.interval, i would have to do it every x seconds, and that is anoying since if someone is working in the dashboard and has any modal open, it will close it on refresh. I would like to reduce to the minimun possible the objects update. Is there a way that i could make a function that would force the objects update?

Hi @mamaral welcome!

This might be interesting, if I understand you correctly.

New websocket component: DashSocketIO

Hello everyone I have just created a new dash component dash-socketio, to go hand-in-hand with flask-socketio. It allows to do some pretty cool things with Dash like notifying the user of progress while a callback is running, or streaming outputs while a callback is still running. See below a GIF of usage.py in the repo. This is a toy example with the above 2 usecases implemented. [dash-socketio-usage] Hopefully this can be useful to some of the community!

Hi,
Tkx for the reply. It sounds interesting, but do you know a way that could be used within the same app? I only need to make de callback to execute without user intervention.

Hello @mamaral,

The first link that @AIMPED gave operates from within the same application.
