shinyFiles 0.9.3

• Standard upkeep

shinyFiles 0.9.2

• Fixes for logical checks that may see a vector of length > 1 (https://github.com/thomasp85/shinyFiles/issues/159)
• PR from @sgvignali (https://github.com/thomasp85/shinyFiles/pull/164) to have shinySaveButton trigger an event that can be detected and used in JS code
• Fix to keep getVolumes working after WMIC.exe is deprecated (https://github.com/thomasp85/shinyFiles/issues/163). Thanks go to @Mailinnia
• Fixes to display modals correctly with BS4 (https://github.com/thomasp85/shinyFiles/issues/158). Thanks go to @ruthkr
• Fix long delay if a network drive is not mountable without VPN (https://github.com/thomasp85/shinyFiles/issues/155)

shinyFiles 0.9.0

• Security fix that ensures a user cannot bypass folder navigation limits (@lz100 issue #152, @bellma-lilly PR #153)
• Allow additional arguments to be passed to shinyFiles buttons and links (e.g., onclick)
• Fix for creating a new folder using the Create new folder > + button in shinyFileSave (https://github.com/thomasp85/shinyFiles/issues/142)
• Allow directory chooser to disable creating new directories (@dipterix #144). Extended to allow the same functionality when saving files

shinyFiles 0.8.0

• Increase in default height based on a experimentation by @SamGG. This works well with the new default detail view. Users can still adjust in CSS as discussed in https://github.com/thomasp85/shinyFiles/issues/134
• The default viewtype in the file browser has been changed to "detail". A new argument viewtype has been added to shinyFilesButton, shinyFilesLink, shinySaveButton, and shinySaveLink that should be one of "detail" (default), "list", or "icon"
• The default size of the modal has been set to modal-lg to provide a bit more room for file information in the "detail" view. This will, however, automatically adjust to smaller screens as needed
• Allow the user to type a path, including the filename. In filechoose, the file will be selected if it exists. In filesave, if the file does not exist, but the base directory does, the filename will be entered into the dialog. (@bellma-lilly, #129 and #131)

shinyFiles 0.7.5

• Check if "wmic" is accessible on Windows. If not, return a message to the user and a volumes vector with only the HOMEDRIVE
• Updated example in "showcase" mode. Also, demonstrates the use of as.integer to check if a file or directory has been selected

shinyFiles 0.7.4

• Use inherits rather than class(...) == ... (#123)

shinyFiles 0.7.3

• Check parent existence when attempting to navigate 'down' in directory selection to avoid down-arrow freeze (@AFriendlyRobot, #118)
• Return the epoch in milliseconds from the server (@keqiang, #113)

• Open a folder with the enter key (#63)
• Double click file to select and close modal (#74)
• Navigate file and folder selection with arrow keys
• Select with the Enter, i.e., a shortcut to click the select button. Enter should open a folder but select a file + close modal
• Save on Enter in textinput for file save modal (i.e., equivalent of clicking the select button)
• A refresh button to update the list of files and directories shown
• Refresh the file and folder information when a shinyFiles button is clicked
