busy-start-up: Busy indicator at start up

In shinybusy: Busy Indicators and Notifications for 'Shiny' Applications

Busy indicator at start up

Description

Show a full-page busy indicator when application is initialized, then removed it after timeout, automatically or manually from server.

Usage

busy_start_up(
  loader,
  text = NULL,
  mode = c("timeout", "auto", "manual"),
  timeout = 500,
  color = "#112446",
  background = "#f0f0f0"
)

remove_start_up(timeout = 100, session = shiny::getDefaultReactiveDomain())

Arguments

loader	A spinner created with spin_epic or spin_kit or a simple HTML tag, to include a GIF (see examples).
text	Optional text to be displayed under the loading animation.
mode	How to remove the start-up page: "timeout", "auto" or "manual", see below for details.
timeout	Time (in milliseconds) to wait before removing the start-up page.
color	Color of text.
background	Background color.
session	Shiny session.

Details

Behavior according to mode argument:

• timeout: Busy indicator will be removed after the time (in milliseconds) specified in timeout.

• manual: Busy indicator will be removed with remove_start_up from server, timeout from busy_start_up is ignored in favor of that of remove_start_up.

• auto: Busy indicator is removed after JavaScript shiny:idle is triggered for the first time, timeout is taken into account.

When using timeout or auto, you can still remove the busy indicator with remove_start_up.

Value

HTML tag that can be included in UI definition.

Examples

# with timeout ------------------------------------------------------------

library(shiny)
library(shinybusy)

ui <- fluidPage(

  busy_start_up(
    loader = spin_epic("orbit", color = "#FFF"),
    text = "Loading...",
    timeout = 1500,
    color = "#FFF",
    background = "#112446"
  ),

  tags$h1("Ready to play!", class = "text-center")

)

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

}

if (interactive())
  shinyApp(ui, server)

# manual ------------------------------------------------------------------

library(shiny)
library(shinybusy)

ui <- fluidPage(

  busy_start_up(
    loader = spin_kit(
      spin = "cube-grid",
      color = "#FFF",
      style = "width:50px; height:50px;"
    ),
    text = "Loading...",
    mode = "manual",
    color = "#FFF",
    background = "#112446"
  ),

  tags$h1("Ready to play!", class = "text-center")

)

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

  # Remove after 3 seconds (+timeout)
  observe({
    Sys.sleep(3)
    remove_start_up(timeout = 200)
  })

}

if (interactive())
  shinyApp(ui, server)


# auto & GIF --------------------------------------------------------------

library(shiny)
library(shinybusy)

ui <- fluidPage(

  busy_start_up(
    loader = tags$img(
      src = "https://jeroen.github.io/images/banana.gif",
      width = 100
    ),
    text = "Loading...",
    mode = "auto"
  ),

  tags$h1("Ready to play!", class = "text-center"),
  plotOutput(outputId = "plot")

)

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

  output$plot <- renderPlot({
    Sys.sleep(2)
    plot(rnorm(100))
  })

}

if (interactive())
  shinyApp(ui, server)
