How do I add input parameters for shinyjs::shinyjs.init() function in R?












0















I am modularizing my R Shiny app with custom Javascript functions using shinyjs package. I find defining parameters for js$functionName(params) useful and would like to also use it for shinyjs.init() that is automatically called when the app is initially loaded.



Clarification with JohnCoene's comment:



From the code below, I want to use customMessage defined within R used in shinyjs.init(). I want this because I have a pre-defined script that includes all hard-coded variables including HTML class names and IDs. I do not want to define another variable within shinyjs.init().



Please refer to the reproducible example using codes from the
shinyjs official page below:



library(shiny)
library(shinyjs)

customMessage <- 'The app has been launched'

jsCode <- '
shinyjs.init = function() {
alert("I want to have a custom parameter for shinyjs.init()!");
}

shinyjs.backgroundCol = function(params) {
var defaultParams = {
id : null,
col : "red"
};
params = shinyjs.getParams(params, defaultParams);
console.log(params);
var el = $("#" + params.id);
el.css("background-color", params.col);
}'

shinyApp(
ui = fluidPage(
useShinyjs(),
extendShinyjs(text = jsCode),
p(id = "name", "My name is Dean"),
p(id = "sport", "I like soccer"),
selectInput("col", "Colour:",
c("white", "yellow", "red", "blue", "purple")),
textInput("selector", "Element", ""),
actionButton("btn", "Go")
),
server = function(input, output) {
observeEvent(input$btn, {
js$backgroundCol(input$selector, input$col)
})
}
)

  • I'm unsure what you are trying to achieve. How would you pass arguments to shinyjs.init which is ran at the app launch before any parameter could even be available.
