library(shiny)
library(reactable)
library(reactable.extras)

data <- data.frame(
  ID = 1:1000,
  SKU_Number = paste0("SKU ", 1:1000),
  Actions = rep(c("Updated", "Initialized"), times = 20),
  Registered = as.Date("2023/1/1")
)

ui <- fluidPage(
  # Include reactable.extras in your UI
  reactable_extras_dependency(),
  reactableOutput("my_table")
)

server <- function(input, output, session) {
  output$my_table <- renderReactable({
    # Create a reactable table with enhanced features
    reactable(
      data,
      columns = list(
        ID = colDef(name = "ID"),
        SKU_Number = colDef(name = "SKU_Number"),
        Actions = colDef(
          name = "Actions",
          cell = button_extra("button", class = "btn btn-primary")
        ),
        Registered = colDef(
          cell = date_extra("Registered", class = "date-extra")
        )
      )
    )
  })

  observeEvent(input$button, {
    showModal(modalDialog(
      title = "Selected row data",
      reactable(data[input$button$row, ])
    ))
  })
