"""FilePicker for streamlit. 
Still doesn't seem to be a good solution for a way to select files to process from the server Streamlit is running on.
Here's a pretty functional solution. 
Usage:
```
import streamlit as st
from filepicker import st_file_selector
tif_file = st_file_selector(st, key = 'tif', label = 'Choose tif file')
```
