profvis_ui: profvis UI for Shiny Apps

In profvis: Interactive Visualizations for Profiling R Code

profvis UI for Shiny Apps

Description

Use this Shiny module to inject profvis controls into your Shiny app. The profvis Shiny module injects UI that can be used to start and stop profiling, and either view the results in the profvis UI or download the raw .Rprof data. It is highly recommended that this be used for testing and debugging only, and not included in production apps!

Usage

profvis_ui(id)

profvis_server(input, output, session, dir = ".")

Arguments

id	Output id from profvis_server.
input, output, session	Arguments provided by shiny::callModule().
dir	Output directory to save Rprof files.

Details

The usual way to use profvis with Shiny is to simply call profvis(shiny::runApp()), but this may not always be possible or desirable: first, if you only want to profile a particular interaction in the Shiny app and not capture all the calculations involved in starting up the app and getting it into the correct state; and second, if you're trying to profile an application that's been deployed to a server.

Examples

# In order to avoid "Hit <Return> to see next plot" prompts,
# run this example with `example(profvis_ui, ask=FALSE)`

if(interactive()) {
  library(shiny)
  shinyApp(
    fluidPage(
      plotOutput("plot"),
      actionButton("new", "New plot"),
      profvis_ui("profiler")
    ),
    function(input, output, session) {
      callModule(profvis_server, "profiler")

      output$plot <- renderPlot({
        input$new
        boxplot(mpg ~ cyl, data = mtcars)
      })
    }
  )
}
