shinyServer: Define Server Functionality

Description

Defines the server-side logic of the Shiny application. This generally involves creating functions that map user inputs to various kinds of output.

Usage

shinyServer(func)

Arguments

func
The server function for this application. See the details section for more information.

Details

Call shinyServer from your application's server.R file, passing in a "server function" that provides the server-side logic of your application.

The server function will be called when each client (web browser) first loads the Shiny application's page. It must take an input and an output parameter. Any return value will be ignored. It also takes an optional session parameter, which is used when greater control is needed.

See the http://rstudio.github.com/shiny/tutorial/{tutorial} for more on how to write a server function.

Examples

Run this code
# A very simple Shiny app that takes a message from the user
# and outputs an uppercase version of it.
shinyServer(function(input, output, session) {
  output$uppercase <- renderText({
    toupper(input$message)
  })
})

Run the code above in your browser using DataLab
