Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

message

✓ from streamlit_chat import message

✗ from st_chat import message

The package is imported as streamlit_chat, not st_chat

Minimal example displaying two chat messages (bot and user).

import streamlit as st from streamlit_chat import message message("Hello, I am a chatbot!", key="chat1") message("Hi there!", is_user=True, key="chat2")

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe `message` component requires a unique `key` for each call, or Streamlit will raise a DuplicateKey error.

fix

Always pass a unique `key` string (e.g., f"msg_{i}") to each `message()` call.

affects: all

deprecatedThe package uses the old Streamlit component API and may not be compatible with newer Streamlit versions (>=1.27).

fix

Consider using native Streamlit chat elements (`st.chat_message`, `st.chat_input`) instead.

affects: >=1.27

gotchaAvatars are fetched from DiceBear API; network issues can cause avatars to fail silently.

fix

Set custom avatars via the `avatar_style` and `seed` parameters, or ensure internet access.

affects: all

Errors

Common errors & fixes

DuplicateWidgetID: There are multiple identical st_chat_message widgets with the same key.

Each `message()` call must have a unique key.

fix

Use dynamic keys: `message("text", key=f"msg_{i}")`.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'st_chat'

Incorrect import path. The correct module is 'streamlit_chat'.

fix

Run `import streamlit_chat` instead of st_chat.
