position: fixed).?Waiter.logo argument it is no longer used and can be easily achieved in other ways.triggerWaiter to trigger the waiter without going through the server.spinners argument of use_waiter function.

rstudioapi dependency; assumes most users have moved up from version 1.2waiter_show_on_load ran Shiny.setInputValue before shiny connected #73 + correct the erroneous example in the READMEhide_on_error, and hide_on_silent_error to the Waiter to control whether the waiter should be removed when the underlying plot/table/or other throws an error. Silent errors are those raised by req and validate/need.waiter_shown and waiter_hidden fired when the loading screen with waiter is shown or hidden.preview_spinner.print method added for this.waiter_on_busy
include_js argument to simplify APIwaiter_set_theme, waiter_get_theme, and waiter_unset_theme) to enable setting a global theme; making such that every waiter loading screen uses the same options (color, html, and logo). This can e overridden in individual waiter loading screens.spin_google spinnertransparent to easily create transparent waiter backgrounds.use_waiter takes a spinner argument to which one can specify any of 7 spinner CSS kits, by default all kits are loaded. One can know which kits should be specified by simply typing the spinner in the console, e.g.: spin_rotating_plane().Version 0.1.0 sees great many changes. Nothing has been broken but has been deprecated. The steward and garcon family of functions have been added.
All functions now start with waiter_.
waiter_show function deprecates show_waiter
waiter_hide function deprecates hide_waiter
waiter_update function deprecates update_waiter
waiter_show_on_load function deprecates show_waiter_on_load
waiter_hide_on_load function deprecates hide_waiter_on_load
The Reference class Waiter takes a new optional id first argument which takes one or more ids of elements to overlay the waiter over, the content of the waiter (html) becomes the second argument. If passing a list of ids one can pass a list of content html.
library(shiny)
library(waiter)
ui <- fluidPage(
use_waiter(),
actionButton("btn", "Render"),
fluidRow(
column(6, plotOutput("plot1")),
column(6, plotOutput("plot2"))
)
)
server <- function(input, output) {
w <- Waiter$new(
list("plot1", "plot2"),
html = list(spin_1(), spin_2())
)
dataset <- reactive({
input$btn
w$show()
Sys.sleep(2)
runif(100)
})
output$plot1 <- renderPlot(plot(dataset()))
output$plot2 <- renderPlot(plot(dataset()))
}
shinyApp(ui, server)The waitress also sees a lot of changes, again nothing has been broken.
call_waitress has been deprecated in favour of the Reference class, please use Waitress$new() instead.shiny::Progress
min and max arguments, one is no longer limited to percentageshtml argument on start method to add content on waitress
library(shiny)
library(waiter)
ui <- fluidPage(
use_waitress(),
actionButton("btn", "render"),
plotOutput("plot")
)
server <- function(input, output) {
w <- Waitress$new("#plot", min = 0, max = 10)
output$plot <- renderPlot({
input$btn
w$start("LOADING")
for(i in 1:10){
Sys.sleep(.3)
w$inc(1)
}
w$close()
plot(runif(100))
})
}
shinyApp(ui, server)The hostess is a new addition to the staff, it works hand in hand with waiter to allow you to layer a progress bar on top of the waiter (though it can be used on its own). Moreover the latter progress bars can be greatly customised.
library(shiny)
library(waiter)
ui <- fluidPage(
use_waiter(),
use_hostess(),
waiter_show_on_load(
color = "#f7fff7",
hostess_loader(
"loader",
preset = "circle",
text_color = "black",
class = "label-center",
center_page = TRUE
)
)
)
server <- function(input, output){
hostess <- Hostess$new("loader")
for(i in 1:10){
Sys.sleep(runif(1) / 2)
hostess$set(i * 10)
}
waiter_hide()
}
shinyApp(ui, server)
