How to add input elements inside popups and table cells for user interaction?

[anilsathyan7]

Currently, we can add put_xxx elements inside popups and tables(even buttons). But how can we do the same with input elements eg:- checkbox or select inside a table/popup and access these results through python?

You can use the pin feature introduced in latest dev version.

DOC: https://pywebio.readthedocs.io/en/dev/pin.html

Note that you need install latest dev version.

Can we pin file_upload input?

[wang0618]

Just let you know that the pin feature is included to the new stable version of PyWebIO.

PS: file_upload() does not have a pin widget, because every time you use the pin object to get the pin widget value, PyWebIO need to query it from the front-end in real time, which means a big performance overhead for file_upload().
