shinyWidgetOutput(outputId, name, width, height, package = name,
  inline = FALSE)

shinyRenderWidget(expr, outputFunction, env, quoted)

Arguments

outputId

output variable to read from

name

Name of widget to create output binding for

width, height

Must be a valid CSS unit (like "100%", "400px", "auto") or a number, which will be coerced to a string and have "px" appended.

package

Package containing widget (defaults to name)

inline

use an inline (span()) or block container (div()) for the output

expr

An expression that generates an HTML widget

outputFunction

Shiny output function corresponding to this render function.

env

The environment in which to evaluate expr.

quoted

Is expr a quoted expression (with quote())? This is useful if you want to save an expression in a variable.

Details

These functions are delegated to from within your widgets own shiny output and render functions. The delegation is boilerplate and always works the same for all widgets (see example below).

Value

An output or render function that enables the use of the widget within Shiny applications.

}

# shiny render function for a widget named 'foo'
renderFoo <- function(expr, env = parent.frame(), quoted = FALSE) {
  if (!quoted) { expr <- substitute(expr) } # force quoted
  htmlwidgets::shinyRenderWidget(expr, fooOutput, env, quoted = TRUE)
}
