I am deploying streamlit app from my github repo. In my app.py ffprobe is required to run. When running locally I installed it and kept in my local directory. But the ffprobe.exe is 493MB hence I cannot upload it to GitHub site. Is there any way i can access ffprobe in my streamlit deployment. I tried adding ffprobe,ffmpeg in my reqirements.txt but it doesn't work. My local version works properly.
Exactly, putting package names in packages.txt will allow the underlying Linux server to install it.
The following Docs page provides further information on other methods of installing App dependencies:
