I have:

Fence[content_, length_] := Column[{
   Grid[Partition[Characters[content], UpTo[length]]],
   Grid[{Select[
      Flatten[Transpose[
        PadRight[
         Partition[Characters[content], 
          UpTo[length]], {Ceiling[Length[Characters[content]]/length],
           length}, "@@"]]], # != "@@" &]}]
   }]
Mani[content_] := 
 Manipulate[Fence[content, x], {x, 1, Length[Characters[content]], 1}]

Then test it in my desktop Mathematica and everything goes well:

So I deploy:

CloudDeploy[Mani["0123456789"], Permissions -> "Public"]
CloudObject["https://www.wolframcloud.com/objects/ea1707d8-8c50-4926-bfad-207c5c1c1430"]

But it seems doesn't evaluate my function(Fence):

Documentation and Details ans Options section for CloudDeploy are saying:

CloudDeploy[expr,...] automatically deploys all definitions needed to evaluate expr, much like CloudSave.

and as we can see, it's not the case here. Or, it's a feature of Manipulate which boxes definitions are got by FrontEnd so maybe evaluation doesn't apply here.

At the end, you can force them to be remembered by using SaveDefinitions:

Mani[content_] :=  Manipulate[
  Column@{Fence[content, x], DownValues@Fence}, 
  {x, 1, Length[Characters[content]], 1}, 
  SaveDefinitions -> True
]

  • $\begingroup$ I find my cloud app is very slow, how to optimize my code to get an more fluent app? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @Sayakiss You can't, each time something is meant to be updated it has to call cloud and send results to you. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ It's really disappointing... I think I should deploy a simple HTML page with a single JavaScript to do that task.. $\endgroup$
