Charts are not loading

[mubashirqasim]

Hi there,

Just a heads up...

For some reason, none of the charts are loading on the following website or on my shiny app:

https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/googleVis/vignettes/googleVis_examples.html

It might be due to missing js file:

Cheers.

Thanks for reporting this issue. I have updated the link to the Google JavaScript function. Can you please test with googleVis 0.6.6 from GitHub.

I am also encountering this issue (though it may be for a different reason).

I'm on 0.6.6, R Version 4.0.1.

If I print a viz with tag = NULL or tag="html", the chart normally pops up.

If I try and embed the figure in an Rmarkdown document using tag = "chart", the chart does not render.
Trying to run the viz function from the DOM also fails:

gvisDataTreeMapID23246cc47a7d()
#> exploration.html:461 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'DataTable' of undefined
#>    at gvisDataTreeMapID23246cc47a7d (exploration.html:461)

Thanks for your comment. It seems the line <script type="text/javascript\" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi?callback=displayChart%s"></script> which is generated by the plot or print calls is replaced in the rendering process with the actual content of https://www.google.com/jsapi?callback
I am not sure if this is due to changes in knitr, rmarkdown or pandoc.

Setting the option self_contained to false in the YAML header of the RMarkdown file seems to resolve the issue:

output:
  html_document:
    self_contained: false

New version of googleVis 0.6.6 CRAN, with the vignettes showing the charts again: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/googleVis/index.html
