Making an sliderInput in shiny:: for a date range has not been easy. Before 0.11, it was sort-of possible to do it by hacking the javascript. See this question for info.
Shiny 0.11 changed the javascript used for sliders. The new sliderInput input is really pretty. Nice job Rstudio!
But the old javascript hack no longer works :(
The new slider is supposed to have new formatting options, but if those options include a date range they aren't documented (yet).
Does anyone know how to do it? If it can't be done natively, can someone suggest a way to do a javascript hack?
The example shiny app is here: https://amose.shinyapps.io/shinyyieldcurve/, with the old javascript hack that sort-of mostly works most of the time.
Thank you in advance.
