updateSliderInput: Change the value of a slider input on the client

Description

Change the value of a slider input on the client

Usage

updateSliderInput(session, inputId, label = NULL, value = NULL,
  min = NULL, max = NULL, step = NULL)

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.
value
The value to set for the input object.
min
Minimum value.
max
Maximum value.
step
Step size.

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.

                     step=1),
        slider2Input("receive", "Receiver:", min=0, max=20, value=10,
                     step=1)
      ),
      mainPanel()
    )
  ),
  server = function(input, output, session) {
    observe({
      val <- input$control
      # Control the value, min, max, and step.
      # Step size is 2 when input value is even; 1 when value is odd.
      updateSliderInput(session, "receive", value = val,
        min = floor(val/2), max = val+4, step = (val+1)%%2 + 1)
    })
  }
)
