dateRangeInput: Create date range input

In swatrin/shiny: Web Application Framework for R

Description

Creates a pair of text inputs which, when clicked on, bring up calendars that the user can click on to select dates.

Usage

dateRangeInput(
  inputId,
  label,
  start = NULL,
  end = NULL,
  min = NULL,
  max = NULL,
  format = "yyyy-mm-dd",
  startview = "month",
  weekstart = 0,
  language = "en",
  separator = " to ",
  width = NULL,
  autoclose = TRUE
)

Arguments

inputId	The input slot that will be used to access the value.
label	Display label for the control, or NULL for no label.
start	The initial start date. Either a Date object, or a string in yyyy-mm-dd format. If NULL (the default), will use the current date in the client's time zone.
end	The initial end date. Either a Date object, or a string in yyyy-mm-dd format. If NULL (the default), will use the current date in the client's time zone.
min	The minimum allowed date. Either a Date object, or a string in yyyy-mm-dd format.
max	The maximum allowed date. Either a Date object, or a string in yyyy-mm-dd format.
format	The format of the date to display in the browser. Defaults to "yyyy-mm-dd".
startview	The date range shown when the input object is first clicked. Can be "month" (the default), "year", or "decade".
weekstart	Which day is the start of the week. Should be an integer from 0 (Sunday) to 6 (Saturday).
language	The language used for month and day names. Default is "en". Other valid values include "ar", "az", "bg", "bs", "ca", "cs", "cy", "da", "de", "el", "en-AU", "en-GB", "eo", "es", "et", "eu", "fa", "fi", "fo", "fr-CH", "fr", "gl", "he", "hr", "hu", "hy", "id", "is", "it-CH", "it", "ja", "ka", "kh", "kk", "ko", "kr", "lt", "lv", "me", "mk", "mn", "ms", "nb", "nl-BE", "nl", "no", "pl", "pt-BR", "pt", "ro", "rs-latin", "rs", "ru", "sk", "sl", "sq", "sr-latin", "sr", "sv", "sw", "th", "tr", "uk", "vi", "zh-CN", and "zh-TW".
separator	String to display between the start and end input boxes.
width	The width of the input, e.g. '400px', or '100%'; see validateCssUnit().
autoclose	Whether or not to close the datepicker immediately when a date is selected.

Examples

## Only run examples in interactive R sessions
if (interactive()) {

ui <- fluidPage(
  dateRangeInput("daterange1", "Date range:",
                 start = "2001-01-01",
                 end   = "2010-12-31"),

  # Default start and end is the current date in the client's time zone
  dateRangeInput("daterange2", "Date range:"),

  # start and end are always specified in yyyy-mm-dd, even if the display
  # format is different
  dateRangeInput("daterange3", "Date range:",
                 start  = "2001-01-01",
                 end    = "2010-12-31",
                 min    = "2001-01-01",
                 max    = "2012-12-21",
                 format = "mm/dd/yy",
                 separator = " - "),

  # Pass in Date objects
  dateRangeInput("daterange4", "Date range:",
                 start = Sys.Date()-10,
                 end = Sys.Date()+10),

  # Use different language and different first day of week
  dateRangeInput("daterange5", "Date range:",
                 language = "de",
                 weekstart = 1),

  # Start with decade view instead of default month view
  dateRangeInput("daterange6", "Date range:",
                 startview = "decade")
)

shinyApp(ui, server = function(input, output) { })
