Details

To show the dialog for file input, the prepareFileBrowser() function needs to be included in the server logic.

This widget relies on fileBrowser() to present an interactive dialogue to users for selecting a directory on the local filesystem. Therefore, this widget is intended for shiny apps that are run locally - i.e. on the same system that files/directories are to be accessed - and not from hosted applications (e.g. from https://www.shinyapps.io).

Value

HTML elements for a file browser input
