In daqana/dqshiny: Enhance Shiny Apps with Customizable Modules

dqshiny

The goal of dqshiny is to provide highly customizable modules to enhance your shiny apps. Includes layout independent collapsable boxes and value boxes, a very fast autocomplete input, rhandsontable extensions for filtering and paging and much more.

Installation

dqshiny will be available on CRAN again soon, for now you can install the latest development version using:

remotes::install_github("daqana/dqshiny")

Example

There’s a package demo dqshiny-base-features demonstrating some functionalities. Or you can start with this short example to see some simple boxes in action:

library(shiny)
library(dqshiny)
shinyApp(
  ui = fluidPage(
    fluidRow(
      dq_box(
        title = "Say Hello to my children", collapsed = TRUE, fill = FALSE,
        dq_infobox("Hello", 2, "World", icon("hashtag"), bg_color = "black", color = "#D00"),
        dq_box(title = "Box in the box", bg_color = "red", width = 8, dq_space())
      )
    )
  ),
  server = function(input, output) {}
)

If you have a bigger amount of selectable choices and still don’t want to use textInputs you may have a look at this:

library(shiny)
library(dqshiny)
# create 100k random words
opts <- sapply(1:100000, function(i) paste0(sample(letters, 7), collapse=""))
shinyApp(
  ui = fluidPage(
    fluidRow(
      column(3,
        autocomplete_input("auto1", "Unnamed:", opts, max_options = 1000),
        autocomplete_input("auto2", "Named:", max_options = 1000,
          structure(opts, names = opts[order(opts)]))
        # feel free to test this with select... and may get yourself a coffee
        # , selectInput("sel", "Select:", opts)
      ), column(3,
        tags$label("Value:"), verbatimTextOutput("val1", placeholder = TRUE),
        tags$label("Value:"), verbatimTextOutput("val2", placeholder = TRUE)
      )
    )
  ),
  server = function(input, output) {
    output$val1 <- renderText(as.character(input$auto1))
    output$val2 <- renderText(as.character(input$auto2))
  }
)

If you ever encountered the wish to have a paged or filtered rHandsontable, this example could be quite interesting:

library(shiny)
library(dqshiny)
shinyApp(
  ui = fluidPage(dq_handsontable_output("myTable", 9L)),
  server = function(input, output, session) {
    hw <- c("Hello", "my", "funny", "world!")
    data <- data.frame(A = rep(hw, 500L), B = hw[c(2:4, 1L)], C = 1:500, D = 500:1)
    dq_render_handsontable("myTable", data,
      filters = c("Sel", "Text", NA, "Auto"), sorting = TRUE,
      page_size = c(17L, 5L, 500L, 1000L),
      col_param = list(list(col = 3L, format = "0.00")),
      cell_param = list(list(row = 2:9, col = 2L, readOnly = TRUE))
    )
  }
)
