bs_dependency

Themeable HTML components


Description

Themeable HTML components use Sass to generate CSS rules from Bootstrap Sass variables, functions, and/or mixins (i.e., stuff inside of theme). bs_dependencies() makes it a bit easier to create themeable components by compiling sass::sass() (input) together with Bootstrap Sass inside of a theme, and packaging up the result into an htmlDependency().

Themable components can also be dynamically themed inside of Shiny (i.e., they may be themed in 'real-time' via bs_themer(), and more generally, update their styles in response to shiny::session's setCurrentTheme() method). Dynamically themeable components provide a "recipe" (i.e., a function) to bs_dependency_defer(), describing how to generate new CSS stylesheet(s) from a new theme. This function is called when the HTML page is first rendered, and may be invoked again with a new theme whenever shiny::session's setCurrentTheme() is called.

Usage

bs_dependency(
  input = list(),
  theme,
  name,
  version,
  cache_key_extra = NULL,
  .dep_args = list(),
  .sass_args = list()
)

bs_dependency_defer(func)

Arguments

input

Sass rules to compile, using theme.

theme

A bs_theme() object.

name

Library name

version

Library version

cache_key_extra

Extra information to add to the sass cache key. It is useful to add the version of your package.

.dep_args

A list of additional arguments to pass to htmltools::htmlDependency(). Note that package has no effect and script must be absolute path(s).

.sass_args

A list of additional arguments to pass to sass::sass_partial().

func

a non-anonymous function, with a single argument. This function should accept a bs_theme() object and return a single htmlDependency(), a list of them, or NULL.

Value

bs_dependency() returns an htmltools::htmlDependency() and bs_dependency_defer() returns an htmltools::tagFunction()

Examples

## Not run: 

myWidgetVersion <- "1.2.3"

myWidgetDependency <- function() {
  list(
    bs_dependency_defer(myWidgetCss),
    htmlDependency(
      name = "mywidget-js",
      version = myWidgetVersion,
      src = system.file(package = "mypackage", "js"),
      script = "mywidget.js"
    )
  )
}

myWidgetCSS <- function(theme) {
  if (!is_bs_theme(theme)) {
    return(
      htmlDependency(
        name = "mywidget-css",
        version = myWidgetVersion,
        src = system.file(package = "mypackage", "css"),
        stylesheet = "mywidget.css"
      )
    )
  }

  # Compile mywidget.scss using the variables and defaults from the theme
  # object.
  sass_input <- sass::sass_file(system.file(package = "mypackage", "scss/mywidget.scss"))

  bs_dependency(
    input = sass_input,
    theme = theme,
    name = "mywidget",
    version = myWidgetVersion,
    cache_key_extra = utils::packageVersion("mypackage")
  )
}

# Note that myWidgetDependency is not defined inside of myWidget. This is so
# that, if `myWidget()` is called multiple times, Shiny can tell that the
# function objects are identical and deduplicate them.
myWidget <- function(id) {
  div(
    id = id,
    span("myWidget"),
    myWidgetDependency()
  )
}
