Shiny Contest Submission: Demo Apps of shinyEventLogger Package for Logging Events in Complex Shiny Apps

[kalimu]

The demo apps are showing how new logging framework dedicated for complex shiny apps can be used. Different types of events can be logged (character string, value of a variable, multi-line output of a function, result of a unit test, custom error, warning, or diagnostic message). Each event can be logged with a list of parameters that are event-specific, common for a group of events, or common for all app events. Logging can be done simultaneously to R console, browser JavaScript console, a file log, and a database (currently MongoDB). Log data can be further analyzed with the help of process-mining techniques from ‘bupaR’ package.
