Updating filters in filter_data_ui() as in select_group_ui()

[joshpersi]

Hello,

I am developing a Shiny app that includes several mutually dependent (i.e. bidirectional) filters of several data types (e.g. character, numeric, date). I would like the values of each filter to update on the fly based on the selections in other filters, as is possible with the example featured in select_group_ui(), where selecting Manufactuer == "Acura" will update the Type filter and only Midsize and Small will be selectable.

However, this functionality doesn't seem to be the default in filter_data_ui(). Running the example from the documentation, the filters don't seem to update based on user inputs to other flters (e.g. selecting species == "virginica" does not update the numeric inputs to reflect the ranges actually observed for that species).

Is it possible to achieve this auto-updating-filter functionality with filter_data_ui()?

Many thanks,

Josh

Hello,
This is an interesting feature, a little complex to implement I think. There's no plan to develop it for now.
