With the Shiny selectizeInput widget, the user can type in text as well as select a value from a list of values. Is there a way in R to read the current value of the text?
(Added)
I should make it clear that I want to be able to read the text the user enters before he has made a selection. As zimia points out, after he has made a selection, the value of whatever he selected becomes available as input$input_id (assuming that the selectize input has the id "input_id").
you can just use the input$input_id. See below
ui <- fluidRow(
selectizeInput("input1","Enter Text",choices=c("A","B") ,options = list(create=TRUE)),
textOutput("output1")
)
server<- function(input, output, session){
output$output1 <- renderText({
req(input$input1)
input$input1
})
}
Shiny's selectizeInput still gives access to the internal properties, methods and callbacks of Selectize.js through "options" argument of updateSelectizeInput. Selectize.js exposes callback "onType", so you can use like that:
updateSelectizeInput(
session,
'input1',
options = list(
onType = I('
text => Shiny.setInputValue("input1_searchText", text)
'),
onBlur = I('
() => Shiny.setInputValue("input1_searchText", null)
')
)
)
and consume it with observer:
observeEvent(input$input1_searchText, {
print(input$input1_searchText)
}, ignoreNULL = FALSE
)
Please, note, that I was also interested to know when the select looses focus and hence used "onBlur" event to set the search text to NULL.
I was thinking that there would be a solution at the level of R/shiny. But I have found a solution that uses javascript.
library(shiny)
js <- '
$(document).on("keyup", function(e) {
minChars = 4;
tag1 = document.activeElement.getAttribute("id");
val1 = document.activeElement.value;
if (tag1 == "input1-selectized") {
if (Math.sign(val1.length +1 - minChars) == 1) {
obj = { "val": val1 };
Shiny.onInputChange("valueEntered", obj);
}
}
});
'
ui <- fluidRow(
tags$script(js),
selectizeInput(
"input1",
"Enter text",
choices = c("A", "B"),
options = list(create = FALSE)),
textOutput("output1")
)
server <- function(input, output, session) {
output$output1 <- renderText({
req(input$valueEntered$val)
input$valueEntered$val
})
}
shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)
The javascript looks for text entered into the element with id "input1-selectized", and if the value is length 4 or more, sets the shiny variable "valueEntered" to an object with val = the text.
Then the observeEvent uses the shiny variable input$valueEntered to set the output text.
The reason in the javascript for using the Math.sign function rather than >, and the reason for nested if's is because for some reason, Shiny replaces infix operators such as > and && by their html equivalents, > and &&.
Note that if the selectizeInput widget has id "input1", then the corresponding text field has id "input1-selectized".
How can I create Vector Output in R Shiny code.
I read this stackechange question, but instead of using textbox, I am using colourpicker::colourInput
Working R code is in GitHub
How do I capture the checked boxes and store color values into a vector? If user unchecks a box, the color value should be removed.
Please give hint on doing this.
Below is animated screenshot and the function
CherryPickPalette <- function (name, name2=NULL, name3=NULL){
if ((nargs() < 2) || (nargs() > 3)){
stop("Enter 2 or 3 valid palettes. Run ListPalette() for list of palettes.")
}
if (nargs() == 2){
new_pal <- MergePalette(name,name2)
}
else if (nargs() == 3){
new_pal <- MergePalette(name,name2,name3)
}
if (interactive()){
shinyApp(
ui = fluidPage(
titlePanel("Cherry Pick Your Own Palette!"),
sidebarPanel (
colourpicker::colourInput("col","Choose colors","white", palette="limited", allowedCols = new_pal)),
mainPanel(
h5('Your custom colors',style = "font-weight: bold;"),
fluidRow(column(12,verbatimTextOutput("value"))))
),
server = function(input,output,session){
output$value<-renderPrint({
paste(input$col,sep=" ")
}
)
}
)
}
}
> CherryPickPalette("Jutti3","Kulfi","Gidha")
I have function that show modal with one input to change name that execute function when save button is clicked and I have validation bind to input:
editNameDialog <- function(input, value, name, save) {
showModal(modalDialog(
textInput("modalNewName", paste("Enter", name, ":"), value),
title = paste("Edit", name),
easyClose = TRUE,
footer = div(
modalButton("Cancel"),
actionButton("modalSaveName", "Save", class = "btn-primary")
)
))
validName <- function() {
nchar(input$newName) > 5
}
observeEvent(input$modalNewName, {
if (validName()) {
shinyjs::enable("modalSaveName")
} else {
shinyjs::disable("modalSaveName")
}
});
observeEvent(input$modalSaveName, {
save(input$modalNewName)
removeModal()
}, ignoreInit = TRUE, once = TRUE)
}
I call this function like this (from server.R):
editNameDialog(input, "default value", "enter name", function(value) {
other$name <- value
})
it work but when I execute the function two times the observer input$modalNewName is executed two times for each keypress. How can I remove the event before adding new one?
I've fixed the issue by adding validation in javascript:
function observeModalName() {
var save = $('#modalSaveName');
$('#modalNewName').off('keyup').on('keyup', function() {
var self = $(this);
if (self.val().length < 5) {
save.disable();
self.error({message: 'Name must be at least 5 characters long'});
} else {
save.enable();
self.error('remove');
}
});
}
and executed:
shinyjs::runjs("observeModalName()")
I would like to create dynamic tabs, where each time the user clicks a button, a new tab would be created. Each tab has the same content, with a variety of widgets that the user can use to select which sets of data to be plotted.
Currently, I am using the solution here to dynamically create my tabs, but with the change that lapply is calling a function that calls tabPanel and adds content to the tabs
`
renderUI({
some_data <- # Dataframe that data is extracted goes here
createTabs <- function(tabNum, some_data)
{
tabPanel(title = paste("Map", tabNum, sep=" "),
fluidRow(
column(
width = 3,
wellPanel(
#widgets are added here
}
mTabs <- lapply(0:input$map, createTabs, some_data)
do.call(tabsetPanel, mTabs)
})
`
And the methods of for loops posted here to create the plots on each tab.
However, it seems like instead of creating a new tab, the 2 solutions above both re-create all the existing tabs. So if there are currently 10 tabs open, all 10 tabs get re-created. Unfortunately, this also resets all the user settings on each tab (in addition to slowing down the app), and extra provisions must be taken as shown here , which further slows down the app because of the large number of input objects that must be created.
I saw a solution for menu items that seems to solve this problem by simply storing all the menu items in a list, and each time a new menu item is generated, it is simply added to the list so that all the other existing items don't need to be created. Is something like this possible for tabs and rendering plots as well?
This is the code:
newTabs <- renderMenu({
menu_list <- list(
menu_vals$menu_list)
sidebarMenu(.list = menu_list)
})
menu_vals = reactiveValues(menu_list = NULL)
observeEvent(eventExpr = input$placeholder,
handlerExpr = {
menu_vals$menu_list[[input$placeholder]] <- menuSubItem(paste("Saved Simulation", length(menu_vals$menu_list) + 1, sep = " "),
tabName = paste("saved_sim", length(menu_vals$menu_list) + 1))
})
If someone can explain to me what menu_list <- list(menu_vals$menu_list) is doing , why Rstudio says it must be inside a reactive expression, and why a new list called menu_vals is created with menu_list = null, it would be greatly appreciated as well :)
Edit: I think I was able to prevent the plots from being re-created each time a new tab is created and also bypass the need for a max number of plots using
observeEvent(eventExpr = input$map,
handlerExpr = {
output[[paste0("outputComparePlot",simNum,"-",input$map)]] <- outputComparePlot(sessionEnv, config, react, input, simNum, input$map) #This function contains the call to renderPlot
})
However, I still cannot figure out how to use this for creating tabs. I tried the same method but it didnt work.
I would like to present a solution that adds a feature to shiny which should have been implemented into shiny base long ago. A function to append tabPanels to existing tabsetPanels. I already tried similar stuff here and here, but this time, I feel like this solution is way more stable and versatile.
For this feature, you need to insert 4 parts of code into your shiny app. Then you can add any set of tabPanels each having any content to an existing tabsetPanel by calling addTabToTabset. Its arguments are a tabPanel (or a list of tabPanels) and the name (id) of your target tabsetPanel. It even works for navbarPage, if you just want to add normal tabPanels.
The code which should be copy-pasted, is inside the "Important!" comments.
My comments will probably not be enough to grasp what's really happening (and why, of course). So if you want to get more into detail, please leave a message and I will try to elaborate.

Probably thanks to #k-rohde, there's now natively available in Shiny a set of methods to add/remove/append tabs in a tabset:
library(shiny)
runApp(list(
ui=fluidPage(
fluidRow(
actionLink("newTab", "Append tab"),
actionLink("removeTab", "Remove current tab")
),
tabsetPanel(id="myTabs", type="pills")
),
server=function(input, output, session){
tabIndex <- reactiveVal(0)
observeEvent(input$newTab, {
tabIndex(tabIndex() + 1)
appendTab("myTabs", tabPanel(tabIndex(), tags$p(paste("I'm tab", tabIndex()))), select=TRUE)
})
observeEvent(input$removeTab, {
removeTab("myTabs", target=input$myTabs)
})
}
))
I would like to have a shiny website that keeps the dynamic choices in the URL as output, so you can copy and share the URL.
I took this code as an example:
https://gist.github.com/amackey/6841cf03e54d021175f0
And modified it to my case, which is a webpage with a navbarPage and multiple tabs per element in the bar.
What I would like is the URL to direct the user to the right element
in the first level tabPanel, and the right tab in the second level
tabPanel.
This is, if the user has navigated to "Delta Foxtrot" and then to
"Hotel", then changed the parameters to
#beverage=Tea;milk=TRUE;sugarLumps=3;customer=mycustomer, I would
like the URL to send the user to "Delta Foxtrot" -> "Hotel", instead
of starting at the first tab of the first panel element.
Ideally I would like a working example, since everything I tried so far hasn't worked.
Any ideas?

</script>
To test this, call runApp(port=5678) in the directory with your source files. By default, no parameters are specified in the URL, so this will default to the first navbar item and the first tab within that item. To test it with URL parameters, point your browser to: http://127.0.0.1:5678/?nav=Delta%20Foxtrot&tab=Hotel&beverage=Coffee. This should point you to the second navbar tab and the second tab in that navbar item with coffee as the selected beverage.
Here's an example demonstrating how to update the navbar selection, tabset selection, and widget selection using variables defined in the URL
ui <- navbarPage('TEST', id='page', collapsable=TRUE, inverse=FALSE,
# define a message handler that will receive the variables on the client side
# from the server and update the page accordingly.
