shiny+ggvis: how to add a line(median) to scatterplot? - r

Question

I have an reactive ggvis scatterplot (layer_points) in shiny.
Now i want to add an horizontal line and vertical line in the plot to resemble the median of the x/y axis.
i know how to calculate it, but not how to display it in same plot.
my code so far:
vis <- reactive({
# Lables for axes
xvar_name <- names(axis_vars)[axis_vars == input$xvar]
yvar_name <- names(axis_vars)[axis_vars == input$yvar]
xvar <- prop("x", as.symbol(input$xvar))
yvar <- prop("y", as.symbol(input$yvar))
gegevens %>%
ggvis(x = xvar, y = yvar) %>%
layer_points(size := 50, size.hover := 200,
fillOpacity := 0.2, fillOpacity.hover := 0.5,
stroke = ~bron, key := ~Project.ID) %>%
add_tooltip(gegevens_tooltip, "hover") %>%
add_axis("x", title = xvar_name, format='d', grid = FALSE) %>%
add_axis("y", title = yvar_name, format='d', grid = FALSE) %>%
add_legend("stroke", title = "Gegevens van:", values = c("A", "B")) %>%
scale_numeric("x", trans = "log", expand=0) %>%
scale_numeric("y", trans = "log", expand=0) %>%
scale_nominal("stroke", domain = c("A", "B"),
range = c("blue", "#aaa")) %>%
set_options(width = 600, height = 600)
})
vis %>% bind_shiny("plot1")
to calculate the median i use:
output$defects <- renderText ({
d <- median(gegevens()$Total.Defects.Delivered)
paste("de mediaan voor totaal aantal Defects is:", d)
})
Lots of thanks for helping.

Seems i misunderstood your example, but i got it working, just after i posted i couldn't. Well here is the solution:
vis <- reactive({
# Lables for axes
xvar_name <- names(axis_vars)[axis_vars == input$xvar]
yvar_name <- names(axis_vars)[axis_vars == input$yvar]
xvar <- prop("x", as.symbol(input$xvar))
yvar <- prop("y", as.symbol(input$yvar))
gegevens %>%
ggvis(x = xvar, y = yvar) %>%
layer_points(size := 50, size.hover := 200,
fillOpacity := 0.2, fillOpacity.hover := 0.5,
stroke = ~bron, key := ~Project.ID) %>%
add_tooltip(gegevens_tooltip, "hover") %>%
add_axis("x", title = xvar_name, format='d', grid = FALSE, properties = axis_props(labels = list(angle = 90, align = "left"))) %>%
add_axis("y", title = yvar_name, format='d', grid = FALSE) %>%
add_legend("stroke", title = "Gegevens van:", values = c("A", "B")) %>%
scale_numeric("x", trans = "log", expand=0) %>%
scale_numeric("y", trans = "log", expand=0) %>%
scale_nominal("stroke", domain = c("A", "B"),
range = c("blue", "#aaa")) %>%
set_options(width = 600, height = 600) %>%
layer_paths(data = gegevens, x = median(gegevens()$kolomname.i.want.the.median.from)), y = yvar ) %>%
layer_paths(data = gegevens, x = xvar, y = median(gegevens()$kolomname.i.want.the.median.from))
})
this gives me an cross in my plot by calculating the median of x and y, even if the user changes the original input. of course i need to find out how to get "kolomname.i.want.the.median.from" to be the x-/ or y-value.
but i now know how to get the lines in, and that was the question.
So thank you aosmith for the right direction.
