conditionalJS: Run JS when condition is met

In shinyGizmo: Custom Components for Shiny Applications

Run JS when condition is met

Description

'conditionalJS' is an extended version of conditionalPanel. The function allows to run selected or custom JS action when the provided condition is true or false.

To see the possible JS actions check jsCalls.

Optionally call 'jsCallOncePerFlush' in server to assure the call is run once per application flush cycle (see. https://github.com/rstudio/shiny/issues/3668). This prevents i.e. running animation multiple times when 'runAnimation(once = FALSE)' is used.

Usage

jsCallOncePerFlush(session)

conditionalJS(ui, condition, jsCall, once = TRUE, ns = shiny::NS(NULL))

Arguments

session	Shiny session object.
ui	A 'shiny.tag' element to which the JS callback should be attached.
condition	A JavaScript expression that will be evaluated repeatedly. When the evaluated ‘condition' is true, 'jsCall'’s true ('jsCall$true') callback is run, when false - 'jsCall$false' is executed in application browser.
jsCall	A list of two ‘htmltools::JS' elements named ’true' and 'false' storing JS expressions. The 'true' object is evaluated when ‘condition' is true, ’false' otherwise. In order to skip true/false callback assign it to NULL (or skip). Use 'this' object in the expressions to refer to the 'ui' object. See jsCalls for possible actions.
once	Should the JS action be called only when condition state changes?
ns	The NS object of the current module, if any.

Examples

if (interactive()) {
  library(shiny)

  ui <- fluidPage(
    tags$style(".boldme {font-weight: bold;}"),
    sliderInput("value", "Value", min = 1, max = 10, value = 1),
    textOutput("slid_val"),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("Show me when slider value at least 3"),
      "input.value >= 3",
      jsCalls$show()
    ),
    hr(),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("Show me when value less than 3"),
      "input.value >= 3",
      jsCalls$show(when = FALSE)
    ),
    hr(),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("I'm disabled when value at least 4"),
      "input.value >= 4",
      jsCalls$disable()
    ),
    hr(),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("I'm disabled when value less than 4"),
      "input.value >= 4",
      jsCalls$disable(when = FALSE)
    ),
    hr(),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("I have class 'boldme' when value at least 5"),
      "input.value >= 5",
      jsCalls$attachClass("boldme")
    ),
    hr(),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("I change color when value at least 6"),
      "input.value >= 6",
      jsCalls$custom(
        true = "$(this).css('background-color', 'red');",
        false = "$(this).css('background-color', 'green');"
      )
    ),
    hr(),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("I change border when value at least 7"),
      "input.value >= 7",
      jsCalls$css(
        border = "dashed"
      )
    ),
    hr(),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("I'm disabled permanently when value at least 8"),
      "input.value >= 8",
      jsCalls$disable()["true"] # remove false condition
    ),
    hr(),
    conditionalJS(
      tags$button("I bounce when value at least 9"),
      "input.value >= 9",
      jsCalls$custom(true = runAnimation()),
      once = FALSE
    )
  )

  server <- function(input, output, session) {
    output$slid_val <- renderText({
      input$value
    })
    jsCallOncePerFlush(session)
  }

  shinyApp(ui, server)
}

if (interactive()) {
  library(shiny)
  library(shinyGizmo)

  ui <- fluidPage(
    textInput("name", "Name"),
    conditionalJS(
      actionButton("value", "Type name to enable the button"),
      "input.name != ''",
      jsCalls$disable(when = FALSE)
    )
  )

  server <- function(input, output, session) {}

  shinyApp(ui, server)
}
