I am learing Shiny. I want to make a simple app that allows for dynamic paths that the user enters. The app should then list csv files in folder A and then copy them from folder A to folder B (the working directory). Then the app does some operations in folder B using an external exe program. Afterwards the folder will cut the results files (.txt) from B and copies them into A.
The structure of my app is as follows ( I have also attached a picture). the problem is explained in the comments in the code.
library(shiny)
ui<-fluidPage(
textInput("prg","Program",getwd()),
verbatimTextOutput("prg"),
textInput("prj","Project","Project"),
verbatimTextOutput("prj")
)
server<-function(input, output,session) {
output$prg=renderText(input$prg)
renderPrint(output$prg)
output$prj=renderText(paste0(input$prg,"/",input$prj))
#This is where my challenge is
#I want to
#list.files(path=path-shown-in-text-box-Project,pattern=".csv")
#Then i want to copy csv files from A to B as described above and run the following program
#This works
observeEvent(input$run,
{
system("my.exe") #exe not shared
})
#Finally I want to cut and paste the results (.txt) from B back into A
}
shinyApp(ui,server)

Here's code you can use to browse any directory for a particular CSV file, read that file and display its contents.
library(shiny)
# Define UI
ui <- pageWithSidebar(
# App title ----
headerPanel("Open a File and Show Contents"),
# Sidebar panel for inputs ----
sidebarPanel(
label="Data Source",fileInput("fileName", "File Name",accept=c(".csv"))),
# Main panel for displaying outputs ----
mainPanel(
tableOutput(outputId = "table")
)
)
# Define server logic
server <- function(input, output) {
inputData <- reactive ({
if (is.null(input$fileName)) return(NULL)
inFile <- input$fileName
conInFile <- file(inFile$datapath,open='read')
inData <- read.csv(conInFile,stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
close (conInFile)
return (inData)
})
output$table <- renderTable ({
inData <- inputData()
if (length(inData) > 0) inData
})
}
shinyApp(ui, server)
