prompter

The goal of {prompter} is to easily create tooltips on many HTML elements in Shiny apps. This is the adaptation of hint.css in R.

Installation

You can install the CRAN version:

install.packages("prompter")

Or install the development version:

# install.packages("devtools") devtools::install_github("etiennebacher/prompter")

library(prompter) library(shiny) library(ggplot2) library(magrittr) ui <- fluidPage( # Load the dependencies use_prompt(), column( 3, # Put the element inside add_prompt()... add_prompt( actionButton("plot", "click"), position = "bottom", message = "this is a button" ) ), column( 9, # ... or use magrittr's pipe plotOutput("plot") %>% add_prompt( message = "this is a plot, and I add some text to show the size of the box", position = "left", type = "error", size = "medium", rounded = TRUE ) ) ) server <- function(input, output, session) { output$plot <- renderPlot(ggplot(mtcars, aes(wt, mpg))+ geom_point()) } shinyApp(ui, server)
