R Reactable highlight entire rows based on condition

Question

I want to highlight all rows in a reactable that meet a certain condition.
Unfortunately, I have found neither an option nor a suggested solution for this on the net.

Here is my reproducible example:

library(tidyverse)
library(reactable)

mtcars %>% 
  reactable(striped = TRUE)

In this example, all rows where the cyl-value is 4 should be highlighted in yellow.

df_example <- mtcars %>% 
  mutate(backgorud_color = ifelse(cyl == 4 , "yellow", "grey"))

Can anyone help me with the configuration of the reactable?

Answer 1

Following the Conditional Styling vignette you can conditionally set the background color using a custom rendering function like so:

library(tidyverse)
library(reactable)

mtcars %>%
  reactable(
    striped = TRUE,
    rowStyle = function(index) {
      if (mtcars[index, "cyl"] == 4) {
        list(background = "yellow")
      }
    }
  )
