I am trying to create an shiny app for people that are not R users (they even may be frightened :D). After the question about server/local app here (How to import remote csv file on a deployed shiny app?), I try to use the shinyShortcut package solution.
I did the following:
devtools::install_github("ewan-keith/shinyShortcut")
library(shinyShortcut)
shinyShortcut(shinyDirectory = "/home/cha/Server",
OS = "unix")
then I got :
So I have all that is normally required (at least that is what I think).
Since I never used the .desktop before, I ran the instruction here.
- I put the .desktop on my desktop
- Right click and change setting the tutorial did
- I allow again from a right click and the .desktop disappears. Everything seemed ok.
However, when I double-clicked on the icon, nothing happened... I tried to change the web browser or the application to launch it, nothing works.
What did I misunderstand ?
Thanks in advance
