Connecting App Inventor to a Local Host

[Christine Ng]

Hi, 

I would like to create an app whereby:

1) I can download images (they are charts) from a localhost and have it output in my app

2) These images will change based on a simulator (in python) 

For eg. I am working in healthcare. when I have a patient that visits me, I want to input some values into the app which will be run by a simulator and charts will be produced into my app. However, I do not wish to have these images connected to an internet connection for privacy issues. --> hence i want to use a local host where I want it connected to the app inventor. 

May I know if this is possible?

Do you have a wifi login to your local healthcare network?

From this point it should just be a case of knowing the internal urls to call ?

use the web component

of course you have be connected to your local network to be able to download from there
