using rvest on shiny webpage

[Yoni Sidi]

when running a shiny app can one use rvest (or something similar)  on the app itself? i am looking to use it to track user activity of a d3js during the run and update another part of the app (ie reactive)

This sounds like more of a shiny question in general so moving to the shiny-discuss list.  That being said, given that the shiny application can send information directly to the server, why wouldn't your shiny application react to those events instead of having an external caller take an action.
