load data from external databases with the desktop app

Hi,

is it possible to load data from the internet with the desktop application?

I have this type of error:
AttributeError: module 'http.client' does not have attribute 'HTTPSConnection'
Traceback:
File 'streamlit/runtime/scriptrunner/script_runner.py', line 542, in _run_script
File '/home/pyodide/streamlit_app.py', line 13, in
db = deta.Base("XXX")

i am working on connecting the desktop app to an external database, do you know of any other way for the app to load data? I tried putting an excel file on the streamlit_app directory while building and while it loads the data it dosent save the data as i imagine it only loads an image (kinda like docker) so i thought connecting an external database would allow to CRUD. please let me know if you loading data from external databases also allows you to write back into it
