Text block constructors — new_text_block • blockr.core

A text block produces (markdown styled) text, given some (optional) data input.

Usage

new_text_block(server, ui, class, ctor = sys.parent(), ...)

new_glue_block(text = character(), ...)

Arguments

server: A function returning shiny::moduleServer()
ui: A function with a single argument (ns) returning a shiny.tag
class: Block subclass
ctor: String-valued constructor name or function/frame number (mostly for internal use or when defining constructors for virtual classes)
...: Forwarded to new_text_block() and new_block()
text: String evaluated using glue::glue()

Value

All blocks constructed via new_text_block() inherit from text_block.

Glue block

Using glue::glue(), this block allows evaluation of a text string in the context of datasets to produce (markdown formatted) text as block result.
