shiny: open new browser tab from within shiny app

问题

From within shiny I want to open a HTML page in a new browser tab. Here it is pointed out that I need JS for that task. Let's say I want to open the URL http://www.google.com in a new tab from within my shiny app. I am not familiar with JS yet and I do not know which code where to include and how to call it from within the shiny app. How can I go about it?

回答1:

You shouldn't need anything more fancy than traditional, shiny-ified HTML:

a("test", href="http://google.com", target="_blank")  

You're just looking to set the target attribute on the a tag which tells your browser where to open this new link you created.

I was having a problem similar to this so I thought I would add my solution.

I wanted to have links in the tabPanel but Shiny will open a new blank page and have a link instead of just clicking on the tabPanel and opening a new page. Using the standard bootstrap CSS the workaround is to use the navbarMenu and then put the links in the tabPanel.

navbarMenu("Links",
           tabPanel(
               a("Google", href="https://google.com", target="_blank")
           )
