Hello,

After the recent update made by the hugging face on the space creation, i can’t able to create streamlit space using python code programmatically.

Before update, i used to create a repo space using the below code

```auto
create_repo("RentalPricePredictionBackend", 
        repo_type="space",  
        space_sdk="streamlit",  
        private=False 
    )

```

But now this code is not working, and there is no documentation or any article on this update made by hugging face - pls help me how to create a streamlit space on hf using programmatically with python

Thanks in advance

I’ve seen reports from other sources that streamlit-related operations on Hugging Face are malfunctioning. I just searched and it doesn’t seem to have been discontinued. So it must be a bug… @meganariley @Wauplin @pierric

If we’re just using Streamlit, we could probably use Docker Space, so maybe they’ve integrated it? Unclear.

The Streamlit template seems to be integrated under Docker.

I know that it was integrated under docker, but I want a way to create the docker streamlit space programmatically
