pak::pkg_install("artalytics/artshiny")

Components

Reactive App Data

Initialize reactive state for module development with pre-loaded artist/artwork context:

# In a module's run_app() function
server <- function(input, output, session) {
  r <- artshiny::reactive_appdata(artist = "746b8207-...")
  myModuleServer("id", r)
}

Statistics Box Module

Reusable statistics display module with customizable icons and values:

# UI
statsBoxUI("my_stats", icon = "chart-line")

# Server
statsBoxServer("my_stats", r_stat_value = reactive(42), stat_label = "Total Artworks")

Loading Screens

Customizable loading screens with artwork-themed animations:

# Get waiter HTML for loading screen
wait_art_html(msg = "Processing artwork...", type = "designs", which = 1)
