Send a quick multiple-choice poll to a live remote audience.
- Install the dependencies:
$ python3 -m venv venv
$ source venv/bin/activate
(venv) $ pip3 install -r requirements.txt
- Start the server:
(venv) python3 poll.py
- Go to
http://localhost:8000
- Create a poll by entering the title and options.
- Copy the poll URL (not the admin URL!) and send it to your audience (eg. via videoconference chat).
- Go to the poll results page.
Polls are stored in RAM. Unless the BACKUP_FILE
environment variable is set, all polls will be
lost when the service is stopped. To enable backups:
$ BACKUP_FILE=polls.json python3 poll.py
Also, there is a limit on the amount of polls stored (currently set at 100), so old ones will be eventually evicted.
