R - Shiny App: Read in csv and convert it to a dataframe / ts object












0














I want to create a Forecast Shiny App. The user should be able to upload a csv or xls file. With the data in the file, the forecast should be done.



Since the file could be another one each time, I created a reactive read in:



data <- reactive ({
file1 <- input$file
if(is.null(file1)){return()}
read.table(file = file1$datapath, sep = input$sep, header = input$header)
})


To be able to further work with the data and create a simple plot, I created a dataframe:



output$plot <- renderPlot ({



#create dataframe
df <- as.data.frame(data())
plot(df)


)}



My input file is a simple csv which only contains one column with pageimpressions. The title of the column also is pageimpressions. Now the df <- as.data.frame(t(data()))part creates a df which looks like this:



enter image description here



Does anybody know how to create a "normal" dataframe which looks like this:



enter image description here



AND/OR: Does anybody know how to directly create a ts object of the upper dataframe?



Many thanks in advance!



(Used packages: library(shiny))

          At least for the "normal" dataframe I'm not sure why you're running this line:



          df <- as.data.frame(t(data()))


          data() is already the "normal" dataframe once it gets read into R using read.table()/read.csv(). If you run class(data()) you should get [1] "data.frame"



          the t() creates the transpose of the dataframe but it doesn't seem you're after that?



          You could try plot.ts() or ts.plot().



          For ts the xts package is quite useful although you need some sort of time corresponding to the data points which I don't see in the dataset above.

          • Second: I didnt include any sort of time, because the ts() package normally does it itself. At least I always could use it that way, when not using shiny. I use this code: dailyts<- ts(df, start =c(2018,08,01), frequency = 365)

          • dailyts<- ts(df, start =c(2018,08,01), frequency = 365) should work with the above code. Or if you have dailyts<- ts(data(), start =c(2018,08,01), frequency = 365) and then plot(dailyts). Sorry, it's a little difficult to fully understand what your issue is.
