Starlette backend does not appear to be working #1948
Description
Bug Report
I'm trying to migrate some custom FastAPI code over to the new perspective Starlette backend, but am not seeing any data updates or any evidence of the tables in a simple html frontend.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Run the example starlette backend
- Create a simple perspective JS frontend:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Title</title>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@finos/perspective"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@finos/perspective-viewer"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@finos/perspective-viewer-datagrid"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@finos/perspective-viewer-d3fc"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script>
window.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", async function () {
const websocket = perspective.websocket("ws://localhost:8080/websocket");
const table = await websocket.open_table("data_source_one");
const viewer = document.getElementById("viewer");
await viewer.load(table);
});
</script>
<perspective-viewer id="viewer"></perspective-viewer>
</body>
</html>Expected Result:
Can see datagrid with data in browser
Actual Result:
Empty datagrid without any schema, no exceptions.
Environment:
Backend
perspective-python==1.6.3fastapi==0.79.1starlette==0.19.1
Frontend:
- CDN
Additional Context:
I can see the websocket connection being established, and data in the backend. The frontend js code connects to the socket and seemingly loads the table, but the viewer does not update.
