shinyNotes

Shiny module for taking free-form notes and displaying them in a customizable UI.

The shinyNotes package provides an easy way to incorporate free-form note taking or discussion boards into your shiny application. The package includes a shiny module, shinynotes, that can be included in any shiny application to create a panel containing searchable, editable text broken down by section headers of your choice.

Installation

Once released, you may install the stable version from CRAN, or the development version using devtools:

# install from CRAN
install.packages('shinyNotes')

# or the development version, via devtools
devtools::install_github('danielkovtun/shinyNotes')

Usage

Demo Shiny Application

To start off, try running a demo Shiny application included with the package by running:

library(shinyNotes)
shinyNotes::runExample('demo')

Editing Notes

Notes can be directly modified by clicking the edit button and using the generated textAreaInput fields. To delete a note, simply remove all text from a textAreaInput and click save.

Adding Text Fields and Sections

You can add a new note to a section by clicking the "plus" button and selecting an existing category to add a note to. To add a new section header, fill in the inputs provided in the modalDialog.
