shinylive now uses shinylive web assets v0.5.0 by default, which bundles webR 0.4.0 with R 4.4.1. This update brings improved keyboard shortcuts for R users in the Shinylive editor, the ability to export a custom library of R packages with the exported app, and a few improvements to the Quarto integration. (#108)
export() gains an assets_version
argument to choose the version of the Shinylive web assets to be used
with the exported app. This is primarily useful for testing new versions
of the Shinylive assets before they’re officially released via a package
update. In CI and other automated workflow settings, the
SHINYLIVE_ASSETS_VERSION environment variable can be used
to set the assets version. (#91)
export() gains template_params and
template_dir arguments to control the template HTML files
used in the export, allowing users to partially or completely customize
the exported HTML. The export template is provided by the shinylive
assets and may change from release-to-release. Use
assets_info() to locate installed shinylive assets; the
template files for a given release are in the
export_template directory of the release. (#96)
template_params takes a list of parameters to be
interpolated into the template. The default template include
title (the title for the page with the exported app),
include_in_head (HTML added to the
<head> of the page), and
include_before_body (HTML added just after
<body>) and include_after_body (HTML
added just after </body>).template_dir is the directory containing the template
files. The default is the export_template directory of the
shinylive assets being used for the export. Use
assets_info() to locate installed shinylive assets where
you can find the default template files.shinylive now uses {cli} for console printing.
Console output can be suppressed via the global R option by calling
options(shinylive.quiet = TRUE). (#104)
export() and assets_info() gain a
quiet argument. In export(),
quiet replaces the now-deprecated verbose
option, which continues to work with a warning. (#104)
{httpuv} to serve static folder instead of plumber.
(#40){httr2} to download assets from GitHub releases.
