shiny (version 1.4.0.2)

conditionalPanel: Conditional Panel

Description

Creates a panel that is visible or not, depending on the value of a JavaScript expression. The JS expression is evaluated once at startup and whenever Shiny detects a relevant change in input/output.

Usage

conditionalPanel(condition, ..., ns = NS(NULL))

Arguments

condition

A JavaScript expression that will be evaluated repeatedly to determine whether the panel should be displayed.

...

Elements to include in the panel.

ns

The namespace() object of the current module, if any.

Details

In the JS expression, you can refer to input and output JavaScript objects that contain the current values of input and output. For example, if you have an input with an id of foo, then you can use input.foo to read its value. (Be sure not to modify the input/output objects, as this may cause unpredictable behavior.)

Examples

# NOT RUN {
## Only run this example in interactive R sessions
if (interactive()) {
  ui <- fluidPage(
    sidebarPanel(
      selectInput("plotType", "Plot Type",
        c(Scatter = "scatter", Histogram = "hist")
      ),
      # Only show this panel if the plot type is a histogram
      conditionalPanel(
        condition = "input.plotType == 'hist'",
        selectInput(
          "breaks", "Breaks",
          c("Sturges", "Scott", "Freedman-Diaconis", "[Custom]" = "custom")
        ),
        # Only show this panel if Custom is selected
        conditionalPanel(
          condition = "input.breaks == 'custom'",
          sliderInput("breakCount", "Break Count", min = 1, max = 50, value = 10)
