rpivotTable output sent to Rstudio viewer and not to webpage about rpivottable HOT 14 CLOSED

Shiny support has not been tested. I hope to get to it over the weekend or next week. I think @smartinsightsfromdata has used in Shiny successfully but not sure if in a tabset.

from rpivottable.

The example shiny app works fine. I am using navbarPage and tabsets in my app so maybe there is something there.

from rpivottable.

@mostly-harmless I use rpivotTable with an app with navbarpage plus multi-tabs in page (just counted: 11 tab panels distributed in two rows and two tabsetpanels). With no issue whatsoever.
Can you share your code please?

from rpivottable.

@mostly-harmless This is the UI code:

fluidRow(br(),rpivotTable::rpivotTableOutput('demPivot') )

And this is the server code:

output$demPivot <- renderRpivotTable({
tbl <- model_
rpivotTable(data = tbl
  ,rows="activityname",cols="subfunctionname",
  vals="activityunits", aggregatorName="Sum")
})

from rpivottable.

No luck on my end figuring this out yet. My code:

UI:
tabPanel("Pivot", rpivotTableOutput("pivotData"))

Server:
output$pivotData <- renderRpivotTable({ rpivotTable(data = r_data[[input$dataset]]) })

r_data is a reactiveValue object that has the data.

Just to verify it is not (likely) something on my end I replace the rpivotTable lines with the ones below. Those work fine.

tabPanel("Pivot", dataTableOutput("pivotDataTable")),

output$pivotDataTable <- renderDataTable({
r_data[[input$dataset]]
})

Not sure if the line from the js console might be useful:

I made some progress isolating the source of the problem. My ui.R is built using renderUI. The call to rpivottable does not work when I put it in a renderui. However, if I put it directly into ui.R, which I assume is what you to @smartinsightsfromdata, it does works. The file where the tabs are created in my app is linked below in case that is helpful. Any suggestions?

Note: The output from rpivottable is actually not being shown in Rstudio viewer. The output I was seeing was from an example @timelyportfolio sent me. Sorry for the confusion.

@mostly-harmless I don't know what to say: it worked for me without problems (nice work by the way, well done!).
On the other hand I had (many) problems with the libraries (but this is partly due to RRO - I'm used to it).
My sequence of ops was:

1. build radiant-shiny11 in Rstudio (adding independently any package that was failing the build).
2. Open in base ui.R and launch it. At least I've got proof with the screenshot!
3. I wanted to re-try downloading rpivotTable form github (just in case), but when I re-entered into the Rstudio project radiant tried to re-install all the packages failing on some (again, probably due to RRO: I need to install lots of packages as source) and the application did not run. Now I will be busy installing packages from source for a while :)

@mostly-harmless on the other hand, looking at your folders, in www you have a jquery-ui.custom.min.js
library already. Assuming it is used by some other part of your code, in some instances the dom will have possibly two jquery-ui scripts, with bad consequences.

from rpivottable.

@mostly-harmless Steps tried:

1. Re-published in github rpivotTable (to be certain that all was ok).
2. Re-installed rpivotTable
3. Open in rstudio radiant-shiny11 (I only made one change: I have commented out all of dependencies.R) because of problems with my RRO libraries)
4. Build radiant package with rstudio
5. Launched the shiny app (runApp button on rstudio): all OK

I repeated steps 3 to 5 (and just 5. of course) few times with positive results each time. I couldn't see any js error on the page.
Of course I haven't navigated every corner of the app (here on safari directly - screen zoomed out to show everything).

Thanks for looking into this Enzo. Very strange that this works on your machine and not at all on mine. Below is all I see in Chrome or Safari. Could you send me output from sessionInfo() on your machine? What is RRO by the way?

I reinstalled rpivotTable from gihtub and now it works. Same package version 0.1.2.6. I don't get it.

2 questions:

1. It seems the order of factor levels is not maintained when pushed into the browser / pivottable.js.
2. Is it possible to distinguish factors/character/etc. from numeric variables (e.g., using color)? Numerics are great for averages but, most likely, you wouldn't want them on the row/colum axes.

Anyway, thanks for all the great work on rpivotTable! It really is quite a slick application.

@mostly-harmless thanks you for using it. In reality I feel a bit of an usurper of fame: frankly all of the merit goes to Nicolas @nicolaskruchten that has developed the pivottable library. Ultimately this is just a wrapper.
I'm having some issue in ordering categorical variables too. As far as I understand pivottable works ordering alphabetically any variable except numbers. For example in my project I need to prefix months with 01-Jan etc. to have them ordered properly.
In reality you could do some formatting and a different sorting, but from what I saw from Nicolas' examples it is done through additional ad hoc scripting and changes / extension to the renderers. We are sort of limited by accessing to the widget using a single function call from R (let's not forget that pivottable is normally used as a widget in a javascript project where you have more latitude to do things ad hoc).
I personally prefer to keep things simple and easy to use. But rest assured that I'll keep an eye on any improvement to the original code and I'll try to pass onto R.

@mostly-harmless RRO is Revolution R Open. It is significantly faster thanks to intel MKL (on Linux and Windows - but accelerate on Mac) for linear algebra.

The update to rpivotTable fixed things on my end. Thanks Enzo!
