I am attempting to exclude a ShinyJS delay from a reactive bookmarking context in Shiny. I see that the delay ID in the URL is autogenerated and always different: delay-ad190e10123bd97f960fed7a8a9e6fde=3000.
I attempted to exclude the delay via regular expression, however I don't believe the regex is being parsed:
setBookmarkExclude(
c("delay-[[:alnum:]]"))
I would like a way to either set the ID on the delay so it is the same every time or to regex the setBookmarkExclude to exclude the randomly generated delay ID
Please see the following example:
library(shiny)
library(shinyjs)
ui <- function(request) {
fluidPage(
useShinyjs(),
br(),
bookmarkButton(id="bookmarkBtn"),
hr(),
textOutput("ExcludedIDsOut"),
hr(),
sliderInput(inputId="slider", label="My value will be bookmarked", min=0, max=10, value=5),
textOutput("out_1"),
textOutput("out_2"),
textOutput("out_3")
)
}
server <- function(input, output, session) {
observeEvent(input$bookmarkBtn, {
session$doBookmark()
})
ExcludedIDs <- reactiveVal(value = NULL)
observe({
toExclude <- "bookmarkBtn"
delayExclude <- grep("delay", names(input), value = TRUE)
if(length(delayExclude) > 0){
toExclude <- c(toExclude, delayExclude)
}
setBookmarkExclude(toExclude)
ExcludedIDs(toExclude)
})
output$ExcludedIDsOut <- renderText({
paste("ExcludedIDs:", paste(ExcludedIDs(), collapse = ", "))
})
delay(1000, {
output$out_1 <- renderText({
"My"
})
})
delay(2000, {
output$out_2 <- renderText({
"delayed"
})
})
delay(3000, {
output$out_3 <- renderText({
"output"
})
})
}
enableBookmarking(store = "url") # store = "server"
shinyApp(ui, server)
Update: Whitelist approach
library(shiny)
library(shinyjs)
ui <- function(request) {
fluidPage(
useShinyjs(),
br(),
bookmarkButton(id="bookmarkBtn"),
hr(),
textOutput("ExcludedIDsOut"),
hr(),
sliderInput(inputId="slider", label="My value will be bookmarked", min=0, max=10, value=5),
textOutput("out_1"),
textOutput("out_2"),
textOutput("out_3")
)
}
server <- function(input, output, session) {
bookmarkingWhitelist <- c("slider")
observeEvent(input$bookmarkBtn, {
session$doBookmark()
})
ExcludedIDs <- reactiveVal(value = NULL)
observe({
toExclude <- setdiff(names(input), bookmarkingWhitelist)
setBookmarkExclude(toExclude)
ExcludedIDs(toExclude)
})
output$ExcludedIDsOut <- renderText({
paste("ExcludedIDs:", paste(ExcludedIDs(), collapse = ", "))
})
delay(1000, {
output$out_1 <- renderText({
"My"
})
})
delay(2000, {
output$out_2 <- renderText({
"delayed"
})
})
delay(3000, {
output$out_3 <- renderText({
"output"
})
})
}
enableBookmarking(store = "url") # store = "server"
shinyApp(ui, server)
