Civis Services Shiny

![CircleCI]([***]

This repository provides the following components:

A Docker Image to support R Shiny applications on Civis Platform
A demo R Shiny app that's readily deployable on Civis Platform

Quickstart Using the Demo Application

To get a sense of what a Shiny app looks like on Civis Platform:

Log on to Civis Platform.
From the top navigation bar, click "Publish".
Under "Services", click "Shiny Demo".

These steps create a new Civis Platform service configured for a Shiny demo app pointing to this GitHub repository. The app is now ready to be deployed. Please follow these instructions for service deployment.

If you would like to start making the demo app your own by making code changes, you may fork this GitHub repository where the demo app's source code is in the directory app/.

If you would like to host and use your own Docker image, Dockerfile and entrypoint.sh from this GitHub repository define the civisanalytics/civis-services-shiny image that you may modify and then host on your own DockerHub account.

Building and Deploying Your Shiny Application

If you would like to build your own Shiny application from scratch and deploy it on Civis Platform, here are the requirements:

Your Shiny application must have its source code hosted on a GitHub repository. The Civis Platform user account that's going to deploy this Shiny app must have access to this GitHub repo.
Your app must have either an app.R file or server.R and ui.R files. Further file organization tips are included below.
Once your app code is on a GitHub repo, either create a new service on Civis Platform by following this page, or launch a Shiny template service from Civis Platform's top navigation bar -> Publish -> Services -> Shiny Demo. Specify or adjust the GitHub repo URL as well as the Git tag (or branch, or Git commit hash).

a. If your code is at a directory in your repo (rather than directly at the root level of your repo), specify the directory path that points to where the app code is located.
For the Docker image, the name is civisanalytics/civis-services-shiny, and the tag is one of those listed on DockerHub. Note that the specific Docker image name and tag you've chosen determines which R version your app is going to run on.

For more information on deploying Shiny Apps in Civis Platform, please see Helpful Tips for Shiny App Deployments.

Organization Tips

As applications grow in size, a modular structure improves maintainability. While very short applications may fit nicely in a single app.R, it is recommended to use a seperate server.R and ui.R for larger projects. For large projects, it is also recommended to keep the code in server.R and ui.R simple by writing functions and modules in seperate R files which are sourced at the top of the server.R and ui.R files.

Recommended Directory Structure

Basic

Advanced / Customized

Top Level

File Structure Elements

README.md
- A description of the repository and any details needed to understand and/or run the application.
app.R
- A single file that contains server.R and ui.R.
- Not needed if server.R and ui.R are present.
- See: app format docs.
server.R
- Logic for server. The final function must be the server function.
- See: two-file docs.
ui.R
- Logic for UI elements. The final function must be the UI object.
- See: two-file docs.
global.R
- Global logic that is run when app is started.
- Use this file to share state across ui.R and server.R. If only server needs to look at the state, prefer isolating code in server.R.
- See: scoping docs
- Dependencies may be installed in this file, or you may prefer to isolate them in a dedicated install.R file.
- If you have a lot of dependencies to install, you may want to *** creating a custom Docker image. Pre-installing dependencies via a custom Docker image can significantly speed up start-up times for your app.
DESCRIPTION
- Mainly used to add metadata to project for Showcase mode.
- See: display-mode docs
<extra_scripts>.R
- Extra logic to be used in server.R outside the main server function. That is, code that is run when the application is launched and is accessible to all server sessions.
- Ideally, the only code in server.R should be the single server function with a call to source("extra_scripts.R", local=TRUE) at the top of the file.
<modules>.R
- Modules to be shared across ui.R and server.R.
- Typically, <modules>.R is sourced from global.R with source("modules.R") so the modules can be used in both ui.R and server.R.
- See: modules docs
www
- Folder containing optional website elements, including javascript, CSS and images.

Use Docker Image Locally

Either build the Docker image locally

bash
docker build -t civis-services-shiny .

or download the image from DockerHub

bash
docker pull civisanalytics/civis-services-shiny:latest

The latest tag (Docker's default if you don't specify a tag) will give you the most recently built version of the civis-services-shiny image. You can replace the tag latest with a version number such as 1.0 to retrieve a reproducible environment.

Testing Integration with the Civis Platform

If you would like to test the image locally follow the steps below:

Build your image locally:

docker build -t civis-services-shiny:test .

Run the container:
```
docker run --rm -p 3838:3838 -e APP_DIR=/app -e CIVIS_API_KEY civis-services-shiny:test
```
This mounts the app folder in the Docker container under /app, where the entrypoint expects to find it. You will need to modify the run command if your application is at a different path. It also makes the CIVIS_API_KEY environment variable accessible to the container, for initializing the Civis API client. However, this variable does not need to be defined in order for the app to run.
Visit [***] to access your app.

a. This is the default URL. The Shiny application logs should also tell you where the app is being served at.

b. The app should also be available at the ip of your docker host with port 3838: <docker-host-ip>:3838. For example, when using Docker for Mac <docker-host-ip> was 127.0.0.1, so the app was available at [***].

Contributing

See CONTRIBUTING for information about contributing to this project.

If you make any changes, be sure to build a container to verify that it successfully completes:

bash
docker build -t civis-services-shiny:test .

and describe any changes in the change log.

For Maintainers

This repo has autobuild enabled. Any PR that is merged to master will be built as the latest tag on Docker Hub.

Creating a new release

Once you are ready to create a new version, go to the "releases" tab of the repository and click "Draft a new release". Github will prompt you to create a new tag, release title, and release description. The tag should use semantic versioning in the form "vX.X.X"; "major.minor.micro".

The title of the release should be the same as the tag. Include a change log in the release description.

Once the release is tagged, DockerHub will automatically build three identical containers, with labels "major", "major.minor", and "major.minor.micro".
