coerceUI(id)

coerceServer(input, output, session, data, reactiveValuesSlot = "data")

`id`	Module id. See `callModule`.
`input, output, session`	standards `shiny` server arguments.²
`data`	A `data.frame` or a `reactive` function returning a `data.frame` or a `reactivevalues` with a slot containing a `data.frame` (use `reactiveValuesSlot` to identify that slot)
`reactiveValuesSlot`	If `data` is a `reactivevalues`, specify the name of the slot containing data.

a reactiveValues with two slots: data original data.frame with modified columns, and names column's names with call to coerce method.
