#' Update URL in browser's location bar
#'
#' This function updates the client browser's query string in the location bar.
#' It typically is called from an observer. Note that this will not work in
#' Internet Explorer 9 and below.
#'
#' For `mode = "push"`, only three updates are currently allowed:
#' \enumerate{
#' \item the query string (format: `?param1=val1¶m2=val2`)
#' \item the hash (format: `#hash`)
#' \item both the query string and the hash
#' (format: `?param1=val1¶m2=val2#hash`)
#' }
#'
#' In other words, if `mode = "push"`, the `queryString` must start
#' with either `?` or with `#`.
#'
#' A technical curiosity: under the hood, this function is calling the HTML5
#' history API (which is where the names for the `mode` argument come from).
#' When `mode = "replace"`, the function called is
#' `window.history.replaceState(null, null, queryString)`.
#' When `mode = "push"`, the function called is
#' `window.history.pushState(null, null, queryString)`.
#'
#' @param queryString The new query string to show in the location bar.
#' @param mode When the query string is updated, should the the current history
#' entry be replaced (default), or should a new history entry be pushed onto

#' context. The latter is useful if you want to navigate between states using

#' Enable bookmarking for a Shiny application
#'
#' @description
#'
#' There are two types of bookmarking: saving an application's state to disk on
#' the server, and encoding the application's state in a URL. For state that has
#' been saved to disk, the state can be restored with the corresponding state
#' ID. For URL-encoded state, the state of the application is encoded in the
#' URL, and no server-side storage is needed.
#'
#' URL-encoded bookmarking is appropriate for applications where there not many
#' input values that need to be recorded. Some browsers have a length limit for
#' URLs of about 2000 characters, and if there are many inputs, the length of
#' the URL can exceed that limit.
#'
#' Saved-on-server bookmarking is appropriate when there are many inputs, or
#' when the bookmarked state requires storing files.
#'
#' @details
#'
#' For restoring state to work properly, the UI must be a function that takes
#' one argument, `request`. In most Shiny applications, the UI is not a
#' function; it might have the form `fluidPage(....)`. Converting it to a
#' function is as simple as wrapping it in a function, as in
#' \code{function(request) \{ fluidPage(....) \}}.
#'
#' By default, all input values will be bookmarked, except for the values of
#' passwordInputs. fileInputs will be saved if the state is saved on a server,
#' but not if the state is encoded in a URL.
#'
#' When bookmarking state, arbitrary values can be stored, by passing a function
#' as the `onBookmark` argument. That function will be passed a
#' `ShinySaveState` object. The `values` field of the object is a list
#' which can be manipulated to save extra information. Additionally, if the
#' state is being saved on the server, and the `dir` field of that object
#' can be used to save extra information to files in that directory.
#'
#' For saved-to-server state, this is how the state directory is chosen:
#' \itemize{
#' \item If running in a hosting environment such as Shiny Server or
#' Connect, the hosting environment will choose the directory.
#' \item If running an app in a directory with [runApp()], the
#' saved states will be saved in a subdirectory of the app called
#' shiny_bookmarks.
#' \item If running a Shiny app object that is generated from code (not run
#' from a directory), the saved states will be saved in a subdirectory of
#' the current working directory called shiny_bookmarks.
#' }
#'
#' When used with [shinyApp()], this function must be called before
#' `shinyApp()`, or in the `shinyApp()`'s `onStart` function. An
#' alternative to calling the `enableBookmarking()` function is to use the
#' `enableBookmarking` *argument* for `shinyApp()`. See examples
#' below.
#'
#' @param store Either `"url"`, which encodes all of the relevant values in
#' a URL, `"server"`, which saves to disk on the server, or
#' `"disable"`, which disables any previously-enabled bookmarking.
#'
#' @seealso [onBookmark()], [onBookmarked()],
#' [onRestore()], and [onRestored()] for registering
#' callback functions that are invoked when the state is bookmarked or
#' restored.
#'
#' Also see [updateQueryString()].

#' Exclude inputs from bookmarking
#'
#' This function tells Shiny which inputs should be excluded from bookmarking.
#' It should be called from inside the application's server function.
#'
#' This function can also be called from a module's server function, in which
#' case it will exclude inputs with the specified names, from that module. It
#' will not affect inputs from other modules or from the top level of the Shiny
#' application.
#'
#' @param names A character vector containing names of inputs to exclude from
#' bookmarking.
#' @param session A shiny session object.
#' @seealso [enableBookmarking()] for examples.
#' @export

#' Add callbacks for Shiny session bookmarking events
#'
#' @description
#'
#' These functions are for registering callbacks on Shiny session events. They
#' should be called within an application's server function.
#'
#' \itemize{
#' \item `onBookmark` registers a function that will be called just
#' before Shiny bookmarks state.
#' \item `onBookmarked` registers a function that will be called just
#' after Shiny bookmarks state.
#' \item `onRestore` registers a function that will be called when a
#' session is restored, after the server function executes, but before all
#' other reactives, observers and render functions are run.
#' \item `onRestored` registers a function that will be called after a
#' session is restored. This is similar to `onRestore`, but it will be
#' called after all reactives, observers, and render functions run, and
#' after results are sent to the client browser. `onRestored`
#' callbacks can be useful for sending update messages to the client
#' browser.
#' }
#'
#' @details
#'
#' All of these functions return a function which can be called with no
#' arguments to cancel the registration.
#'
#' The callback function that is passed to these functions should take one
#' argument, typically named "state" (for `onBookmark`, `onRestore`,
#' and `onRestored`) or "url" (for `onBookmarked`).
#'
#' For `onBookmark`, the state object has three relevant fields. The
#' `values` field is an environment which can be used to save arbitrary
#' values (see examples). If the state is being saved to disk (as opposed to
#' being encoded in a URL), the `dir` field contains the name of a
#' directory which can be used to store extra files. Finally, the state object
#' has an `input` field, which is simply the application's `input`
#' object. It can be read, but not modified.
#'
#' For `onRestore` and `onRestored`, the state object is a list. This
#' list contains `input`, which is a named list of input values to restore,
#' `values`, which is an environment containing arbitrary values that were
#' saved in `onBookmark`, and `dir`, the name of the directory that
#' the state is being restored from, and which could have been used to save
#' extra files.
#'
#' For `onBookmarked`, the callback function receives a string with the
#' bookmark URL. This callback function should be used to display UI in the
#' client browser with the bookmark URL. If no callback function is registered,
#' then Shiny will by default display a modal dialog with the bookmark URL.
#'
#' @section Modules:
#'
#' These callbacks may also be used in Shiny modules. When used this way, the
#' inputs and values will automatically be namespaced for the module, and the
#' callback functions registered for the module will only be able to see the
#' module's inputs and values.
#'
#' @param fun A callback function which takes one argument.
#' @param session A shiny session object.
#' @seealso enableBookmarking for general information on bookmarking.
#'
#' @examples
#' ## Only run these examples in interactive sessions
