In lt: Lightweight Tables via JSON Specs and JavaScript

Shiny Bindings for lt

Description

lt_output() creates a UI placeholder; render_lt() supplies the table spec from the server. Together they render an lt() table as a custom Shiny output — no renderUI() involved.

Usage

lt_output(outputId, ...)

render_lt(expr, env = parent.frame(), quoted = FALSE)

Arguments

outputId	Output variable name to read the table from.
...	Reserved for future use.
expr	An expression that returns an lt() object.
env	Environment in which to evaluate expr.
quoted	Whether expr is already quoted.

Value

lt_output() returns a Shiny UI element; render_lt() returns a render function.

Examples

if (interactive()) {
library(shiny)
ui = fluidPage(lt_output("tbl"))
server = function(input, output) {
  output$tbl = render_lt(lt(head(mtcars)) |> lt_header("Motor Trend"))
}
shinyApp(ui, server)
}
