updateDateRangeInput

Change the start and end values of a date range input on the client


Description

Change the start and end values of a date range input on the client

Usage

updateDateRangeInput(
  session = getDefaultReactiveDomain(),
  inputId,
  label = NULL,
  start = NULL,
  end = NULL,
  min = NULL,
  max = NULL
)

Arguments

session

The session object passed to function given to shinyServer. Default is getDefaultReactiveDomain().

inputId

The id of the input object.

label

The label to set for the input object.

start

The initial start date. Either a Date object, or a string in yyyy-mm-dd format. If NULL (the default), will use the current date in the client's time zone.

end

The initial end date. Either a Date object, or a string in yyyy-mm-dd format. If NULL (the default), will use the current date in the client's time zone.

min

The minimum allowed date. Either a Date object, or a string in yyyy-mm-dd format.

max

The maximum allowed date. Either a Date object, or a string in yyyy-mm-dd format.

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.

For radioButtons(), checkboxGroupInput() and selectInput(), the set of choices can be cleared by using choices=character(0). Similarly, for these inputs, the selected item can be cleared by using selected=character(0).
