chatBox: Create a chat box for the main body of a dashboard.

In gyang274/ygdashboard: Create Dashboards with 'Shiny' and 'adminLTE'.

Description

A chatBox displays chatMessages as main box content, an optinal contactList on header, and an optional newMessage reminder on header. The contactList are created by chatContactList which in turn contains multiple chatContacts.

Create a chat contact list for the chat box header.

Usage

chatBox(..., textInputId, btnInputId, placeholder = "Type Message ...",
  title = "chatBox", status = "warning", solidHeader = FALSE,
  background = NULL, width = 6, height = NULL, admin = "Guang Yang",
  adminImg = paste0("ygdashboard", "-",
  as.character(utils::packageVersion("ygdashboard")), "/img/yg.jpg"),
  client = "Ex Machina", clientImg = paste0("ygdashboard", "-",
  as.character(utils::packageVersion("ygdashboard")), "/img/exmachina.jpg"),
  contactList = NULL, newMessage = NULL)

chatMessage(name, image, text, position = c("left", "right"),
  timestamp = "Just Now")

chatContactList(..., .list = NULL)

chatContact(name, image = NULL, date = "Just Now", text = NULL)

Arguments

...	For chat message, this should consist of chatMessages.
title	Optional title.
status	The status of the item This determines the item's background color. Valid statuses are listed in validStatuses.
solidHeader	Should the header be shown with a solid color background?
background	If NULL (the default), the background of the box will be white. Otherwise, a color string. Valid colors are listed in validColors.
width	The width of the box, using the Bootstrap grid system. This is used for row-based layouts. The overall width of a region is 12, so the default valueBox width of 4 occupies 1/3 of that width. For column-based layouts, use NULL for the width; the width is set by the column that contains the box.
height	The height of a box, in pixels or other CSS unit. By default the height scales automatically with the content.
.list	An optional list containing messages to put in the chatBox same as the ... arguments, but in list format. This can be useful when working with programmatically generated chatMessage.
...	For chat contacts, this should consist of chatContacts.
