shiny icons in DataTable

[lukasz...@gmail.com]

Hi I am trying to display font-awsome icons in one of the datatable columns

data$Icon <- sapply(filt_data$Icon, function(x)as.character(icon(x)))

datatable(data = data,

              escape = TRUE)

the Icon column contains character like:

"<i class=\"fa fa-long-arrow-right\"><\/i>"

However I am not seeing the icons displayed,

Looks like I need to tell datatable to include font-awsome css stylesheet.

Anyone has an idea how it can be done?

Thanks,

Lukasz

Kind of a kludge but you could put icon("") somewhere else in your UI, that would have the side effect of loading font-awesome.
