External pagination/searchbar controls

[klar-C]

Hi,

Is it possible to create a pagination/searchbar control separately and then somehow hook it up to the reactable?

In DT that is fairly easy through API calls. But I wasn't able to find something similar in reacttable.

Alternatively how could I move the searchbar somewhere else?

Hi, custom pagination controls are possible if you can use Shiny: https://glin.github.io/reactable/articles/examples.html#update-a-reactable-instance. The search value can't be changed via updateReactable() yet, but that'll probably be added at some point.

Otherwise, it's not possible to do either using the JavaScript API. I think it could be one day, but the JavaScript API is still too unstable to document.

Got it - thank you! Great package.
