issue with trying to use shinylive to create static version of application

[jamieRowen]

Just watched the talk on shiny live. Tried it out on a test application and ran into a couple of issues.

On first run of shiny static test_app/ site i got an error:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/jamie/.cache/shiny/shinylive'

I was able to resolve this by creating the shiny directory in .cache which didn't previously exist.

Following that, running the above which kicks off a download of shiny live I get

Creating directory /home/jamie/.cache/shiny/shinylive
/home/jamie/.cache/shiny/shinylive/shinylive-0.0.1dev does not exist.

I could resolve this using

wget https://pyshiny.netlify.app/shinylive/shinylive-0.0.1dev.tar.gz

then unpacking into ~/.cache/shiny/shinylive

Yikes, sorry to hear that you ran into this. I’ll try to get this fixed today.

[jamieRowen]

No worries, if I had more time just now I would dig into it a bit more. Enjoyed the talk.

I have a PR that fixes the directory creation issue, but I wasn't able to reproduce the downloading error.

[jamieRowen]

Thanks winston. I have tried this and I can no longer recreate the download error. I was trying this just as you were announcing shiny live, I suspect there were probably a few people downloading at the same time. I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

Either way, seems to be ok and thanks for your prompt response
