Unable to apply theme to DT using `bs_theme`

[JamesHWade]

I am unable to apply the theme to with {DT}. I've tried to create a reprex (below). Any suggestions?

library(shiny)
library(bslib)
library(DT)

ui <- fluidPage(
    theme = bs_theme(bootswatch = "superhero"),
    dataTableOutput("carsTable"))

server <- function(input, output) {
    output$carsTable <- renderDataTable(datatable(mtcars))
}

shinyApp(ui = ui, server = server)

At least for right now, you'll have to specify the relevant style, for example: datatable(mtcars, style = "bootstrap4")

Hopefully you won't need to in a future version of {DT} (see https://github.com/rstudio/DT/pull/852).

Closing since this is really a {DT} issue, not a {bslib} issue.
