If shinydashboard was a person I would like to meet him in a dark alley with a baseball bat. I am simply trying show a data frame as a table in my shiny app so I looked online at a bunch websites and questions on stack exchange and this is what I got.
UI
library(shiny) library(shinydashboard) library(data.table)#For fread. library(tidyverse) library(htmlwidgets) library(DT)#For the interactive table. # Header -----------------------------------------------------------------------| header<-dashboardHeader( title = "Marketing Dashboard" ) # Sidebar ----------------------------------------------------------------------| sidebar<-dashboardSidebar( sidebarMenu( menuItem("Overview", tabname ="overview", icon = icon("dashboard")), menuItem("Weather", tabname ="weather", icon = icon("bolt")) ) ) # Body -------------------------------------------------------------------------| body<-dashboardBody( tabItems( tabItem(tabName = 'overview', DT::dataTableOutput("overviewtable") ), tabItem(tabName = 'weather', fluidRow( ) ) ) ) # UI ---------------------------------------------------------------------------| ui = dashboardPage( header, sidebar, body ) shinyApp(ui,server) Server
server <- function(input,output){ #Table for overview output$overviewtable<- DT::renderDataTable({ DT::datatable(tib1) }) } I have tried using tableOutput and renderTable I have tried to see if my tib1 was somehow the problem so I tried using the data set mpg. That didnt work. I tried placing DT::dataTableOutput("overviewtable") in a column(), in a fluidRow. I tried reinstalling the packages for DT and refreshing R but that didnt work. I looked at the gallery website from R here. I took that code and ran it and I was able to see their table they made but when I ran my code I cant see my table at all or other tables for that matter. I have a feeling it has something to do with shinydashboard because it seems that when I ran the code from the website above that was just using shiny it worked.
