express.module

express.module(fn)

Create a Shiny module using Shiny Express syntax

This function is used to create a Shiny module, where the code inside the function uses Shiny Express syntax. This is in contrast to the pair of functions :func:~shiny.module.ui() and :func:~shiny.module.server(), which are used to create Shiny modules with Core syntax.

Parameters

fn : Callable[Concatenate[Inputs, Outputs, Session, P], R]

The function that defines the module. The first three parameters of this function must be input, output, and session. Any additional parameters can used to pass information to the module.
