inshiny: Compact inline widgets for Shiny apps

R-CMD-check Codecov test coverage

inshiny provides a basic set of compact widgets for Shiny apps which occupy minimum space and appear “inline” with explanatory text.

Consult the Introduction vignette for a brief guide to inshiny.

Note that inshiny does not currently support use with Shiny’s uiOutput and renderUI.

Installation

You can install the development version of inshiny from GitHub with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("nicholasdavies/inshiny")

Example

This demonstrates the basic features of inshiny:

library(inshiny)
library(shiny)
library(bslib)

# Shiny UI
ui = page_fixed(
    theme = bs_theme(version = 5, preset = "quartz"),

    h1("A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens"),
    h2("Configurable Edition"),

    inline("It was the year of Our Lord ",
        inline_date("tale_date", "1775-07-01"),
        ". Spiritual revelations were conceded to ",
        inline_select("tale_country", c("England", "France", "Spain")),
        " at that favoured period, as at this. ",
        "Mrs. Southcott had recently attained her ",
        inline_number("tale_age", 25), "th blessed birthday, ",
        "of whom a prophetic private in the Life Guards had heralded the sublime appearance ",
        "by announcing that arrangements were made for the swallowing up of London and ",
        inline_text("tale_borough", "Westminster"), ". ",
        "Even the Cock-lane ghost had been laid only a round ",
        inline_slider("tale_years", 12, 2, 100), " of years, ",
        "after rapping out its messages, as the spirits of this very year last past ",
        "(supernaturally deficient in originality) ",
        inline_button("tale_button", "rapped out"), " theirs. ",
        "Mere messages in the earthly order of events had lately come to the ",
        "English Crown and People, from a congress of British subjects in ",
        inline_switch("tale_usa", FALSE, " THE USA", " America"), ": ",
        "which, strange to relate, have proved more important to the human race ",
        "than any communications yet received through any of the chickens ",
        "of the Cock-lane brood.")
