The VS code Shiny extension for python never loads the app with large datasets. about shiny-vscode HOT 5 CLOSED

Does it take more than 10 seconds for the app to load? If so it’s probably this line, that gives up after 10 seconds:

Maybe it should never time out, but each new attempt to launch should cancel all previous attempts? Or we could simply increase the timeout to something more conservative—10sec is pretty stingy.

yes, it takes more than 10 seconds to load the dataset and extracting only 10 rows. The thing is that I'm connecting to a databricks server so the connection and loading takes a little bit of time.

One further comment, the app never appears on the right sample browser, it's just stuck after the "INFO" message

If I restrict the query to only get 10 rows from source instead of having the entire data set, then the query takes less than 10 seconds approx and the app does load

We close existing Shiny terminals with a new launch attempt (a new click on the Play button, not an auto-reload), which I imagine would have the same effect as cancelling previous attempts, right? In which case, upping the timeout is more reasonable.

We could also do something like wait 15 seconds and then ask the user via a dialog box if they want to keep waiting or kill the app.

@gadenbuie Killing the console would prevent multiple Shiny processes from starting, but I don’t think it will stop openBrowserWhenReady—oooh but maybe that’s the ideal fix. openBrowserWhenReady can be notified or can query whether its owning terminal is still open, and if not, don’t open the browser. What do you think?
