Create buttons grouped that act like checkboxes.
Usage
checkboxGroupButtons(
inputId,
label = NULL,
choices = NULL,
selected = NULL,
status = "default",
size = "normal",
direction = "horizontal",
justified = FALSE,
individual = FALSE,
checkIcon = list(),
width = NULL,
choiceNames = NULL,
choiceValues = NULL,
disabled = FALSE
)
Arguments
- inputId
The
input
slot that will be used to access the value.- label
Display label for the control, or
NULL
for no label.- 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. If this argument is provided, then
choiceNames
andchoiceValues
must not be provided, and vice-versa. The values should be strings; other types (such as logicals and numbers) will be coerced to strings.- selected
The values that should be initially selected, if any.
- status
Add a class to the buttons, you can use Bootstrap status like 'info', 'primary', 'danger', 'warning' or 'success'. Or use an arbitrary strings to add a custom class, e.g. : with
status = "custom-class"
, buttons will have classbtn-custom-class
.- size
Size of the buttons ('xs', 'sm', 'normal', 'lg')
- direction
Horizontal or vertical
- justified
If TRUE, fill the width of the parent div
- individual
If TRUE, buttons are separated.
- checkIcon
A list, if no empty must contain at least one element named 'yes' corresponding to an icon to display if the button is checked.
- width
The width of the input, e.g.
'400px'
, or'100%'
; seevalidateCssUnit()
.- choiceNames, choiceValues
List of names and values, respectively, that are displayed to the user in the app and correspond to the each choice (for this reason,
choiceNames
andchoiceValues
must have the same length). If either of these arguments is provided, then the other must be provided andchoices
must not be provided. The advantage of using both of these over a named list forchoices
is thatchoiceNames
allows any type of UI object to be passed through (tag objects, icons, HTML code, ...), instead of just simple text. See Examples.- disabled
Initialize buttons in a disabled state (users won't be able to select a value).
Examples
library(shiny)
library(shinyWidgets)
ui <- fluidPage(
tags$h1("checkboxGroupButtons examples"),
checkboxGroupButtons(
inputId = "somevalue1",
label = "Make a choice: ",
choices = c("A", "B", "C")
),
verbatimTextOutput("value1"),
checkboxGroupButtons(
inputId = "somevalue2",
label = "With custom status:",
choices = names(iris),
status = "primary"
),
verbatimTextOutput("value2"),
checkboxGroupButtons(
inputId = "somevalue3",
label = "With icons:",
choices = names(mtcars),
checkIcon = list(
yes = icon("square-check"),
no = icon("square")
)
),
verbatimTextOutput("value3")
)
server <- function(input, output) {
output$value1 <- renderPrint({ input$somevalue1 })
output$value2 <- renderPrint({ input$somevalue2 })
output$value3 <- renderPrint({ input$somevalue3 })
}
if (interactive())
