Resetting inputs

[nteetor]

Neither shiny nor yonder have a reset input feature. Shinyjs does provide a reset feature, but the approach is hard-coded and only works on shiny's default inputs. It would be useful if developers had a more generic tool,

resetInput(id = , choices = , values = )

This function could accept a regular expression or multiple regexs as choices or values. This might also better suite a generic updateInput() function. In this case, the reset function would look more like,

resetInput(id = )

id would accept a character vector of ids or perhaps a string marked as a regular expression.

Next steps

• Add default field to input classes
• Input classes save the selected value specified in *Input() functions as their default
• New reset() method for input classes

an updateFileInput would be nice!
