I use the library shinythemes pretty extensively in apps that I build. I was trying to leverage a bsModal from the shinyBS package and noticed that the 'fade in' div never went away leaving me with an unusable web app since nothing was clickable.
The examples from shinyBS::bsModal all work fine (they are sans-shinythemes). How can I continue to use themes while also using modals?
Example App:
library(shiny)
library(shinyBS)
library(shinythemes)
app = shinyApp(
ui =
navbarPage(title=NULL,
id="navbar",
theme = shinytheme("journal"),
tabPanel("test",
column(1),
column(3,
sliderInput("bins",
"Number of bins:",
min = 1,
max = 50,
value = 30),
actionButton("tabBut", "View Table")
),
column(7,
plotOutput("distPlot"),
bsModal("modalExample", "Data Table", "tabBut", size = "large",
dataTableOutput("distTable"))
)
)
),
server =
function(input, output, session) {
output$distPlot <- renderPlot({
x <- faithful[, 2]
bins <- seq(min(x), max(x), length.out = input$bins + 1)
# draw the histogram with the specified number of bins
hist(x, breaks = bins, col = 'darkgray', border = 'white')
})
output$distTable <- renderDataTable({
x <- faithful[, 2]
bins <- seq(min(x), max(x), length.out = input$bins + 1)
# draw the histogram with the specified number of bins
tab <- hist(x, breaks = bins, plot = FALSE)
tab$breaks <- sapply(seq(length(tab$breaks) - 1), function(i) {
paste0(signif(tab$breaks[i], 3), "-", signif(tab$breaks[i+1], 3))
})
tab <- as.data.frame(do.call(cbind, tab))
colnames(tab) <- c("Bins", "Counts", "Density")
return(tab[, 1:3])
}, options = list(pageLength=10))
}
)
runApp(app)
I don't know what causes the conflict, but the solution is to specify the link to the theme directly. Replace theme = shinytheme("journal") with theme = "http://bootswatch.com/journal/bootstrap.css" adjusting the name for the theme you're using.
