Hi everyone,
I’m building an application that allows users to work with and update a dataset (id=‘src_data’) that is persistent across all pages within the Dash app. To do this I simply used a dcc.store + dynamically loaded page layout; while I can access the data across all pages, I’m unable to update the data at each page, in-fact, I don’t even get an indication that the callback has been triggered, I also end up in a quasi-infinite loading state. (quasi because I terminate it after 10-20 minutes)
My real code is a bit too bulky to post so I’ve recreated a simple snippet from the multipage app documentation that mirrors the fundamentals of what I’m trying to achieve. In theory, what I would like is for the src_data to be updated/appended whenever the user clicks on the submit button, present in both pages.
So in this example, user navigates to page 1 selects ‘SFO’ from the dropdown then hits submit resulting in src_data = [‘SFO’], user goes to page 2 hits submit on “YUL” resulting in src_data = [‘SFO’,‘YUL’] etc.
Could anyone provide me with some guidance? It would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you all!
Jon
