How do I SAVE a file?

Anvil Q&A

I am building a knowledgebase chatGPT chatbot. I am indexing the knowledgebase. How do I save it so that anyone else that uses the app can use?

2

Is that content in a file? If so you can put the file(s) in a data table.

3

Its an index file for the chat. Typically I save it as a pickle and load it as a pickle (when I use streamlit), what would be the equivalent here?

4

Have you looked at Files, Media and Binary Data?

5

You can pickle it and save it in a media column in a table.

I am somewhat new here… yes, I saw that… but did not see how to save a file. I saw how to load a file. Did I miss it? Do you know of a simple example to point me to?

I am somewhat new here… can you point me to an example by any chance?

I have a variable I created named “db” and I want to save it and then load it.

Thank you for the link, but I am still not seeing how to pickle the file and then saving it.
