The R shiny script below displays "output$brand_selector" output in subItem1. I wish to display the same output in subItem2 and subItem3. Also when I open the dashboard, the output is present by default, I wish to make it appear only when I click on a subItem.
candyData <- read.table(
text = "
Brand Candy value

dashboardSidebar(

id = "tabs",
menuItem("Charts", icon = icon("bar-chart-o"),
menuSubItem("Sub-item 1", tabName = "subitem1"),
menuSubItem("Sub-item 2", tabName = "subitem2"),
menuSubItem("Sub-item 3", tabName = "subitem3")

observeEvent(input$Select1,{

})
observeEvent(input$Select2,{
updateSelectInput(session,'Select3',

candyData$Candy==input$Select2]))

output$brand_selector <- renderUI({

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)
You could create a dummy tabItem
which is hidden
and select that bu default. This will give the illusion that no tabItem
is selected. To hide the tabItem
option you could use hidden
function from shinyjs
package.
Following is the modified ui
code:
ui <- dashboardPage(
dashboardHeader(),
dashboardSidebar(
sidebarMenu(
shinyjs::useShinyjs(),
id = "tabs",
menuItem("Charts", icon = icon("bar-chart-o"),
shinyjs::hidden(menuSubItem("dummy", tabName = "dummy")),
menuSubItem("Sub-item 1", tabName = "subitem1"),
menuSubItem("Sub-item 2", tabName = "subitem2"),
menuSubItem("Sub-item 3", tabName = "subitem3")
))),
dashboardBody(
tabItems(tabItem("dummy"),
tabItem("subitem1", uiOutput("brand_selector")),
tabItem("subitem2", 4),
tabItem("subitem3", 7))
))
EDIT1: As per the comments and reference from the answers given bu Joe here you can do that as follows:
candyData <- read.table(
text = "
Brand Candy value
Nestle 100Grand Choc1
Netle Butterfinger Choc2
Nestle Crunch Choc2
Hershey's KitKat Choc4
Hershey's Reeses Choc3

menuSubItem("Sub-item 2", tabName = "subitem2"),
menuSubItem("Sub-item 3", tabName = "subitem3")
))),
dashboardBody(
tabItems(tabItem("dummy"),
tabItem("subitem1", uiOutput("brand_selector")),
tabItem("subitem2", uiOutput("brand_selector1")),
tabItem("subitem3", uiOutput("brand_selector2")))
))
server <- function(input, output,session) {
observeEvent(input$Select1,{
updateSelectInput(session,'Select2',
choices=unique(candyData$Candy[candyData$Brand==input$Select1]))
})
observeEvent(input$Select2,{
updateSelectInput(session,'Select3',
choices=unique(candyData$value[candyData$Brand==input$Select1 &
candyData$Candy==input$Select2]))
})
output$brand_selector1 <- output$brand_selector2 <- output$brand_selector <- renderUI({
box(title = "Data", status = "primary", solidHeader = T, width = 12,
fluidPage(
fluidRow(
column(2,offset = 0, style='padding:1px;',

column(2, offset = 0,

})}
shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)
EDIT2:
Here is a slightly different approach without using renderUI
and using shinyModule
:
candyData <- read.table(
text = "
