DT, pdating the table object that contains renderDataTable

I have a renderDataTable held in a reactive object (react_table). I have another reactive object (react_plot) that plots react_table(). My goal is for react_plot() to refresh when the user interacts with react_table(), such as by sorting it.

I know this is exceedingly simple but I just can't figure out the logic behind it. How do I make react_table() update/save (the object itself, not just what the user sees) whenever the user interacts with the table so show_plot() will update?

Try looking at
https://rstudio.github.io/DT/shiny.html
specifically section 2.2.
and the example
https://yihui.shinyapps.io/DT-info/

You specific case isn't exactly in those documents.
However, there's this part of the documentation that makes me think its possible.

  • input$tableId_state : the state information of the table (a list containing the search string, ordering and paging information; it is available only if the option stateSave = TRUE is applied to the table)

Unfortunately, if this doesn't work, I don't think there's an easy R-only way to do this.
