'File copy with downloadhandler in ShinyApp
I would like to be able to make a file.copy through the dowloadhandler so that the user can choose the directory where they want to put the copy. I tried to do it as shown below but it doesn't work. I would appreciate any help or suggestion.
library(shiny)
ui <- fluidPage(
downloadButton("download.data", "Download")
)
server <- function(input, output, session) {
# there is where the file is located
dir <- "documents/file.pdf" # can be a .xslx, csv, etc
output$download.data <- downloadHandler(
filename <- function() {
"fileName"
},
content <- function(file) {
file.copy(dir, file)
}
)
}
shinyApp(ui, server)
Thanks
