module_drawer: Drawer shell for module templates

In shidashi: A Shiny Dashboard Template Modular System with Chat Bot Support

Drawer shell for module templates

Description

Emits a minimal .shidashi-drawer container with a uiOutput placeholder inside, plus the drawer overlay. The drawer starts empty; module server code fills it dynamically via shiny::renderUI.

Typical usage in a ‘module-ui.html’ template:

  {{ shidashi::module_drawer() }}

Then in the module server:

  output$shidashi_drawer <- shiny::renderUI({
    shiny::tagList(
      shiny::h5("My settings"),
      shiny::p("Custom drawer content here.")
    )
  })

The ns() function from the module's template evaluation environment is used automatically so that the output ID is properly scoped to the module namespace.

Usage

module_drawer(output_id = "shidashi_drawer")

Arguments

output_id

character; the output ID for the uiOutput placeholder inside the drawer. Defaults to "shidashi_drawer".

Value

A shiny::tagList containing the drawer div and its overlay.
