using shinyjs Javascript & Golem

[sinh-x]

Hi,

I am learning golem and in the process I try to convert an old app into golem framework & shiny modules.

While doing so I have some issues with shinyjs javascript. The existing app using shinyjs to pass some data from R server code like this

js$st_updateData(data = toJSON(data))

and the javascript declaration is like this:

// update data for the page
shinyjs.st_updateData = function(input) {
  st_data = input.data;
}

If I using this with golem - golem will load the script and throw an error like this

It would not affect and the shinyjs still work just fine. I just curious if I can specificly tell golem to not load some javascript in the resource directory and use other mean to do that, in this case is shinyjs:extendShinyjs(...)

I understand that I can rewrite the shinyjs as follow:
R Server code

session$sendCustomMessage("st_updateData", list(data = toJSON(data))

Javascript

Shiny.addCustomMessageHandler('st_updateData', function(input) {
  st_data = input.data;
})

Thank you for a great package - I really love and want to learn more and apply golem in coming projects.
