Examples

## Not run: ## Launch application on localhost (127.0.0.1) ## ------------------------------------------- ## By default launch_adepro starts the application on localhost ## and a randomly selected port (e.g. 9876), in which case you can connect ## to the running application by navigating your browser to ## http://localhost:9876. launch_adepro() ## Launch application on a different host ## -------------------------------------- ## You can also run the application on a different host ## by specifying a hostname and port. Just make sure to ## use an open port on your machine. Here "open" means ## that the port should not be used by another service ## and the port is opened by your firewall. launch_adepro(host="your-hostname", port=8888) ## Make the application available to your coworkers ## ------------------------------------------------ ## within your local area network even without a ## dedicated Shiny server. The value set through the ## host argument says to accept any connection (not just from localhost). ## Then take note of your local IP (if you are under linux, ## you can see it through ifconfig). Say your IP is 192.168.1.70. ## Your colleagues can use your app by inserting in the address ## bar of their browser 192.168.1.70:8888, i.e. your IP followed ## by : and the port number you selected. launch_adepro(host="0.0.0.0", port=8888) ## Launch application on a different browser ## ---------------------------------------- ## To run the shiny app on a different browser than your standard browser ## use the "browser" argument to set the path to the respective .exe file. launch_adepro(browser = "C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe") ## launching the application. ## End(Not run)
