ShinyItemAnalysis_options function

Options consulted by ShinyItemAnalysis

The package and interactive {shiny} app consult several options that you can easily set via options(). Moreover, there is some behavior that can be changed through environment variables.

Options

Options are set with options(<option> = <value>).

• sia.disable_modules: You can completely disable SIA modules by setting this to TRUE.

• sia.modules_repo: This is the URL for a CRAN-like repository that the app uses to retrieve information about available module packages.

• sia.offer_modules: If set to TRUE (the default), calling run_app()

  will check for the available SIA modules on the official repository and offer to install those module packages that are not installed yet.

Environment variables

You can set this variable system-wide or use R or project-wise .Renviron

file. For more details, please navigate to the R documentation .

• SIA_MODULES_DEBUG: Setting this to TRUE provides a verbose description of SIA modules-related processes. Useful only for debugging purposes.
• SIA_MODULES_FORCE_GUI_INSTALLATION: When the app is running on shiny-server, interactive module installation within the app is not allowed by default. Setting this variable to TRUE will override this restriction and enable module installation in the app.
