shinyfilters 0.3.1

CRAN release: 2026-09-15

• get_filter_logical() now returns rep(T, length(x)) when a method is not defined. This behavior is a bandaid for the underlying issue: numericInput() returns a logical when the user blanks out the input.
• Fixes issue in get_filter_logical() that caused an error when an argument was provided to apply_filters() and a categorical filter had an active selection.

shinyfilters 0.3.0

CRAN release: 2026-01-17

Additions

• Added functions used internally to access argument names needed by filterInput() (#40):
  • arg_name_input_id()
  • arg_name_input_label()
  • arg_name_input_value()
• Arguments can now be passed to generics used in args_filter_input() (#24, #56):
  • args_unique: pass arguments to unique()
  • args_sort: pass arguments to sort()
• Implementations of args_update_filter_input() can now return a value for inputId (or equivalent) ([#87])

Bugfixes

• Use anyNA() for NA checks and inherits() for class checks, per jarl check . (@novica)
• The error message now displays for invalid S7 list dispatches
• An error is now thrown when an implementation of args_filter_input() returns a completely unnamed list
• updateFilterInput() now works when passing selected (or equivalent) as an argument
• selected argument (or equivalent) is now always removed from the result of args_update_filter_input() (#90)

Performance

• Unnecessarily repeated calls to apply_filters() were removed in serverFilterInput() (#92)

Documentation:

• All examples now correctly use inputId (#17)
• All outputs now display in get_input_values() example (#18)
• Borders have been removed in examples (#7)
• Hyperlinks added for all issues in NEWS (#26)
• Updated package title to be more precise (#22)
• Updated filterInput() description in README to match new title

shinyfilters 0.2.0

CRAN release: 2025-12-17

Additions:

• get_input_values(): Generic to return multiple values from a shiny input object (#10, #5)
• get_input_ids(): Generic to return the names of the shiny input ids for an arbitrary object x. Method provided for data.frames (#12)
• get_input_labels(): Same as get_input_ids(), but returns the label instead of inputId (#10).

Bugfixes

• get_input_values() has been re-added; its erroneous removal was causing an error in serverFilterInput() (#10, #5).

Documentation:

• args_update_filter_input() has been removed from the README’s list of extensible functions.
• Renames air.yaml Github Action job: “pkgdown” –> “air”
