Create an info or value box output (server side)

This is the server-side function for creating a dynamic valueBox() or infoBox().

renderValueBox(expr, env = parent.frame(), quoted = FALSE)

renderInfoBox(expr, env = parent.frame(), quoted = FALSE)

Arguments

expr

An expression that returns a Shiny tag object, HTML(), or a list of such objects.

env

The parent environment for the reactive expression. By default, this is the calling environment, the same as when defining an ordinary non-reactive expression. If expr is a quosure and quoted is TRUE, then env is ignored.

quoted

If it is TRUE, then the quote()ed value of expr will be used when expr is evaluated. If expr is a quosure and you would like to use its expression as a value for expr, then you must set quoted to TRUE.

## Only run this example in interactive R sessions
if (interactive()) {
library(shiny)

ui <- dashboardPage(
  dashboardHeader(title = "Dynamic boxes"),
  dashboardSidebar(),
  dashboardBody(
    fluidRow(
      box(width = 2, actionButton("count", "Count")),
      infoBoxOutput("ibox"),
      valueBoxOutput("vbox")
    )
  )
)

server <- function(input, output) {
  output$ibox <- renderInfoBox({
    infoBox(
      "Title",
      input$count,
      icon = icon("credit-card")
    )
  })
  output$vbox <- renderValueBox({
    valueBox(
      "Title",
      input$count,
      icon = icon("credit-card")
    )
  })
}

shinyApp(ui, server)
