updateCheckboxGroupInput
updateCheckboxGroupInput(session, inputId, label = NULL, choices = NULL,
selected = NULL, inline = FALSE)Arguments
| session | The session object passed to function given to
shinyServer. |
|---|---|
| inputId | The id of the input object. |
| label | The label to set for the input object. |
| choices | List of values to show checkboxes for. If elements of the list are named then that name rather than the value is displayed to the user. |
| selected | The values that should be initially selected, if any. |
| inline | If TRUE, render the choices inline (i.e. horizontally) |
Description
Change the value of a checkbox group input on the client
Details
The input updater functions send a message to the client, telling it to change the settings of an input object. The messages are collected and sent after all the observers (including outputs) have finished running.
The syntax of these functions is similar to the functions that created the
inputs in the first place. For example, numericInput() and
updateNumericInput() take a similar set of arguments.
Any arguments with NULL values will be ignored; they will not result in any changes to the input object on the client.
Examples
## Not run: ------------------------------------
# shinyServer(function(input, output, session) {
#
# observe({
# # We'll use the input$controller variable multiple times, so save it as x
# # for convenience.
# x <- input$controller
#
# # Create a list of new options, where the name of the items is something
# # like 'option label x 1', and the values are 'option-x-1'.
# cb_options <- list()
# cb_options[[sprintf("option label %d 1", x)]] <- sprintf("option-%d-1", x)
# cb_options[[sprintf("option label %d 2", x)]] <- sprintf("option-%d-2", x)
#
# # Change values for input$inCheckboxGroup
# updateCheckboxGroupInput(session, "inCheckboxGroup", choices = cb_options)
#
# # Can also set the label and select items
# updateCheckboxGroupInput(session, "inCheckboxGroup2",
# label = paste("checkboxgroup label", x),
# choices = cb_options,
# selected = sprintf("option-%d-2", x)
# )
# })
# })
