Error when using slickR in shiny #16

Closed cegbuna closed 5 years ago

Hi,

Thanks for creating this package. Very useful in viewing images on the fly.

I've been able to successfully test the package in RStudio but I keep getting the following error when I attempt to use it in a shiny app;

Saving a widget with selfcontained = TRUE requires pandoc. For details see:
https://github.com/rstudio/rmarkdown/blob/master/PANDOC.md

I did install pandoc but not sure what to do next.

I appreciate any help I can get in resolving this issue. Thank you.

Hi @yonicd, I was able to test your code and It works. I did use your htmlwidgets example here to create a shiny app. I was able to create and load a synced carousel but noticed that only the upper htmlwidget (leaflet map) fit into the shinydashboard box. The lower htmlwidget extends outside the box. I have tried to adjust the width and height arguments but nothing seems to work. Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you

do you have a small reproducible example with the dashboard?
