Calendar {shiny.fluent}

Calendar

Description

The calendar control lets people select and view a single date or a range of dates in their calendar. It’s made up of 3 separate views: the month view, year view, and decade view.

For more details and examples visit the official docs. The R package cannot handle each and every case, so for advanced use cases you need to work using the original docs to achieve the desired result.

Usage

Calendar(...)

Calendar.shinyInput(inputId, ..., value = shiny.react::JS("new Date()"))

updateCalendar.shinyInput(
  session = shiny::getDefaultReactiveDomain(),
  inputId,
  ...
)

Best practices

Layout

• Don’t break the control apart.

• Include an up and down arrow for navigating between time ranges and a chevron to make the calendar collapsible.

Content

• Use the following format for dates: month, day, year, as in July 31, 2016. When space is limited, use numbers and slashes for dates if the code supports that format and automatically displays the appropriate date format for different locales. For example, 2/16/19.

• Don't use ordinal numbers (such as 1st, 12th, or 23rd) to indicate a date.

Examples

library(shiny)
library(shiny.fluent)

ui <- function(id) {
  ns <- NS(id)
  div(
    Calendar.shinyInput(ns("calendar"), value = "2020-06-25T22:00:00.000Z"),
    textOutput(ns("calendarValue")),
    h3("If `value` is missing, default to system date"),
    Calendar.shinyInput(ns("calendar2")),
    textOutput(ns("calendarDefault")),
    h3("If `value` is NULL, also default to system date"),
    Calendar.shinyInput(ns("calendar3"), value = NULL),
    textOutput(ns("calendarNull"))
  )
}

server <- function(id) {
  moduleServer(id, function(input, output, session) {
    output$calendarValue <- renderText({
      sprintf("Value: %s", input$calendar)
    })
    output$calendarDefault <- renderText({
      sprintf("Value: %s", input$calendar2)
    })
    output$calendarNull <- renderText({
      sprintf("Value: %s", input$calendar3)
    })
  })
}

if (interactive()) {
  shinyApp(ui("app"), function(input, output) server("app"))
