  open = NULL,
  session = shiny::getDefaultReactiveDomain()
)

inputId

The input slot that will be used to access the value.

label

Display label for the control, or NULL for no label.

• vector use a simple vector for better performance.

• named list / named vector in the same way as with shiny::selectInput()

• custom formatted list allowing to use more options, must correspond to virtual-select specifications

disable

Disable (TRUE) or enable (FALSE) the select menu.
