Scholar-Watcher
A web app for watching the authors' google scholar, which is based on scholarly and streamlit.
## Features
- Fetch the **citations and changes** of the registered authors. (Support default daily update and force update)
- Display details and Chart Analysis of **Focus Authors**.
- Support add/modify **the registered authors**. (Now disabled for the security concern)
- Display the **latest K publications** of **Focus Authors**.
## Demo
- View demo through this [demo-link](https://qgrain-scholar-watcher-1--scholar-watcher-holt9c.streamlitapp.com/):
## Self-Host
Generally, there is only one hosted Scholar-Watch needed for each group, as they can customize their own registered authors in their fields. So here is the way for self-host.
```bash
# (recommended)create a conda env, you should install conda/miniconda first
conda create -n streamlit python=3.7
conda activate streamlit
# install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
# config the config.ini
# make sure your host could visit Google Scholar. maybe https_proxy needed.
## (1) if host server could, then set mode = server
## (2) if host server could not, then set https_proxy and set mode = local
# run Scholar-Watcher app
streamlit run 1_🏠_Scholar_Watcher.py # which is the home page
```
