File Uploader never resets (not None for every session) #1686
Description
Summary
Once uploaded a file, no matter whether the server was restarted or the app just rerun or the caches cleared - the file_uploder still saves the last uploaded file!
Steps to reproduce
up = st.empty()
message = st.empty()
up.file_uploader('Please, choose .csv file', type="csv")
upload = st.button("Upload!")
if not up :
message.info("Please upload a file of type: .csv" )
return
else:
message.info("File received" )
Expected behavior:
Obviously, when the app is opened, before the user has uploaded the file the message "Please upload a file of type: .csv" should be shown since no file was uploaded.
Actual behavior:
Yet, each time" File received" is shown (you can also display the contents). This is very undesired behavior since the files are private and must be shown only to the owner. Clear caches, restart server, disabling pychache etc. did not help. Disabling pychache only helps for the first run after server restart. In fact, short of creating (renaming) the uploader and starting again, I see no way to clear this uploader. Since my server has to run all the time without restarting, it would be very nice, if you fix this issue!
Is this a regression?
That is, did this use to work the way you expected in the past?
yes
