Introducing the r2fireworks R package: add celebratory fireworks to page"

In r2fireworks: Enhance Your 'Rmarkdown' and 'shiny' Apps with Dazzling Fireworks Celebrations

The goal of this new R package is to provide functions that allow the addition of fireworks to an Rmarkdown or Shiny app

Constitutes the following functions:

  - [x] useFireworks : include needed scripts in UI

  - [x] showFireworks: start the fireworks

  - [x] removeFireworks: remove the fireworks

Two sample apps

# simple example with automatic start
library(shiny)
library(r2fireworks)

ui <- fluidPage(
  useFireworks(),
  shiny::tags$h1("Introducing r2fireworks"),
  shiny::tags$p("Celebrate 4th of July and my R package!!!")
)
server <- function(input, output, session) {
# optional. start fireworks on load
  showFireworks(particleCount = 30)
}

shinyApp(ui, server)


# example with start and stop buttons
library(shiny)
library(r2fireworks)

ui <- fluidPage(
  useFireworks(),
  shiny::tags$h1("Here is the starts"),
  shiny::tags$p("Celebrate 4th of July and my R package!!!"),
  actionButton("startFW","Show and Start Fireworks, with speed x1"),
  actionButton("startFWx4","Show and Start Fireworks, with speed x4"),
  actionButton("startFWspx4","Show Fireworks, with particle burst size 10000"),
  actionButton("stopFW","Remove Fireworks")
)

server <- function(input, output, session) {
  observeEvent(input$startFW,{
    showFireworks()
  })

  observeEvent(input$startFWx4,{
    showFireworks(speed = 4,particleCount = 50)
  })

  observeEvent(input$startFWspx4,{
    showFireworks(speed = 1,particleCount = 10000)
  })
  observeEvent(input$stopFW,{
    removeFireworks()
  })
}
