The built-in version of DataTables in shiny has already supported
numeric ranges. For a numeric column x in data, if you type a,b in the
search box, the data will be filtered using a <= x <= b. The check
boxes are not supported, but you can use regular expressions (more
flexible) to achieve the same thing, e.g. (this example requires the
development version of shiny:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/shiny-discuss/-0u-wTnq_lA)
library(shiny)
runApp(list(
ui = fluidPage(
dataTableOutput("mytable")
),
server = function(input, output) {
output$mytable = renderDataTable(
iris[sample(nrow(iris)), ],
options = list(search = list(regex = TRUE))
)
}
))
Then you can search for ^setosa|versicolor$, which means both setosa
and versicolor in the iris data. Or 4,5 in the search box of
Sepal.Length to filter this column. Depending on what you want, this
may or may not be enough.
