Populating Repeating Panel with Dataframe

Anvil Q&A
1

Is it possible to show contents of data frame in a repeating panel. I’m thinking something like this:

self.repeating_panel_1.items = dataframe

So far I have been putting my data into a datatable and then doing:

self.repeating_panel_1.items = app_tables.table1.search()

This way has been pretty slow and hoping for a faster way.

Thanks!

Yes absolutely.

I’m on my phone right now so I can’t check on the exact details; however, you can convert your dataframe to a list of dicts and pass that to your repeating panel.

The repeating panel will never know the difference :wink:.

I think you go:
my_list = df.to_dict(orient=“records”)

Something like that. A quick Google or forum search should help you get the rest of the way.

You still have to do the appropriate data binding of course.
