R Shiny DT Formatting Columns Based on Values

I'm trying to format the output of multiple columns based on another column.

In the example below I want to format Col1/2/3/4 based on their values in comparison to the value in the column 'Argu'.

i.e.
- if Col1, Row1 is less than 7 mark Red, if not Green.
- if Col1, Row2 is less than 6 mark Red, if not Green.
- if Col1, Row3 is less than 7 mark Red, if not Green.
- if Col2, Row1 is less than 7 mark Red, if not Green.
- if Col2, Row2 is less than 6 mark Red, if not Green.
- if Col2, Row3 is less than 7 mark Red, if not Green.

etc.

I know is straightforward to format one column based on another column by explicitly calling out that value but for changeable argument values between rows this does not work

# Load Packages
library(shiny)
library(DT)

# Create DT
Col1 = c(9,5,8)
Col2 = c(9,4,7)
Col3 = c(9,9,5)
Col4 = c(8,8,7)
Argu = c(7,6,7)
df = data.frame(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Argu)

# Create Shiny Output
shinyApp(
  ui = 
      navbarPage("Testing",dataTableOutput('dt')),

  server = function(input, output, session) {

    output$dt = DT::renderDataTable(datatable(df)
    %>% formatStyle("Col1","Argu", backgroundColor = styleInterval(6.1,
c("Red","Green")))

  )}
 )

Any help would be appreciated!

You can build hidden logical columns to compare each data column with Argu and format the columns on DT accordingly.

Please refer to the code below. Hope this helps.

# Load Packages
library(shiny)
library(DT)

# Create DT
Col1 = c(9,5,8)
Col2 = c(9,4,7)
Col3 = c(9,9,5)
Col4 = c(8,8,7)
Argu = c(7,6,7)
df = data.frame(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Argu)

# Build hidden logical columns for conditional formatting
dataCol_df <- ncol(df) - 1
dataColRng <- 1:dataCol_df
argColRng <- (dataCol_df + 2):(dataCol_df * 2 + 1)
df[, argColRng] <- df[, dataColRng] < Argu

# Create Shiny Output
shinyApp(
  ui = 
    navbarPage("Testing",dataTableOutput('dt')),
  server = function(input, output, session) {
    output$dt = DT::renderDataTable(
      datatable(df,
                # Hide logical columns
                options=list(columnDefs = list(list(visible=FALSE, 
                                                    targets=argColRng)))) %>% 
        # Format data columns based on the values of hidden logical columns
        formatStyle(columns = dataColRng,
                    valueColumns = argColRng,
                    backgroundColor = styleEqual(c('0', '1'), 
                                                 c("green", "red")))
    )}
)

Here's another solution:

library(shiny)
library(DT)

# Create DT
Col1 = c(9,5,8)
Col2 = c(9,4,7)
Col3 = c(9,9,5)
Col4 = c(8,8,7)
Argu = c(7,6,7)
df = data.frame(Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Argu)

# Create Shiny Output
shinyApp(
  ui = 
    navbarPage("Testing",dataTableOutput('dt')),

  server = function(input, output, session) {

   output$dt <- renderDataTable( DT::datatable(df,options = list(rowCallback = JS('
                                                          function(nRow, aData, iDisplayIndex, iDisplayIndexFull) {
                                                     if (parseFloat(aData[1]) < aData[5])
                                                     $("td:eq(1)", nRow).css("background-color", "red");
                                                     if (parseFloat(aData[1]) >= aData[5])
                                                     $("td:eq(1)", nRow).css("background-color", "green");
                                                     if (parseFloat(aData[2]) < aData[5])
                                                     $("td:eq(2)", nRow).css("background-color", "red");
                                                     if (parseFloat(aData[2]) >= aData[5])
                                                     $("td:eq(2)", nRow).css("background-color", "green");
                                                     if (parseFloat(aData[3]) < aData[5])
                                                     $("td:eq(3)", nRow).css("background-color", "red");
                                                     if (parseFloat(aData[3]) >= aData[5])
                                                     $("td:eq(3)", nRow).css("background-color", "green");
                                                     if (parseFloat(aData[4]) < aData[5])
                                                     $("td:eq(4)", nRow).css("background-color", "red");
                                                     if (parseFloat(aData[4]) >= aData[5])
                                                     $("td:eq(4)", nRow).css("background-color", "green");
                                                                                  }'
                                                                                  ))))


    }
