renderWordcloud: Render the Word Cloud Plotted by ECharts into Shiny Application

Description

renderWordcloud() function helps render the word cloud charts into Shiny applications.

Usage

renderWordcloud(div_id, data,
                shape = 'circle',
                grid_size = 5, sizeRange = c(15, 50),
                rotationRange = c(-45, 45),
                hyperlinks = NULL,
                running_in_shiny = TRUE)

Arguments

div_id

The division id users specified for this chart. The division will be specified in ui.R.

data

The data used for the plotting. It should be either a vector or a data.frame.

If it's a vector, it should be made up of all the elements you want to count and plot, like c("a", "a", "b", "a", "b", "c").

If it's a data.frame, the data must be made up of only two columns, "name" and "value". The "value" column must be numeric or integer.

shape

The shape of the word cloud. The valid values include "circle" (default value), "cardioid", "diamond", "triangle-forward", "triangle", "pentagon" and "star".

grid_size

The size of the grid in word cloud.

sizeRange

The font size range in the word cloud. It should be a vector of length two. The default value is c(15, 50).

rotationRange

The rotation angle range in the word cloud. It should be a vector of length two. The default value is c(-45, 45).

hyperlinks

Vector. Users can link each element in the chart to a hyperlink (URL like http://***.com). Please note this is only supported when the data is in data.frame format, and the length of the "hyperlinks" vector should be the same to the number of rows in the data given.

Note that if hyperlinks are available, the fonts in the pop-up window will be in skyblue color and italic style.

running_in_shiny

If we're actually running this in a Shiny library, or we're simply doing testing. Default valus is "TRUE". If "FALSE", the function will print what it's supposed to evaluate.

  # UI layout -------------------------------------------------
