Description

Missing links when rendering doc page:

  • /api/ExFillingLayout.html
    • shiny.ui.click_opts
    • shiny.ui.dblclick_opts
    • shiny.ui.brush_opts
    • shiny.ui._plot_output_opts.BrushOpts
    • shiny.ui._plot_output_opts.ClickOpts
    • shiny.ui._plot_output_opts.DblClickOpts
    • shiny.ui._plot_output_opts.HoverOpts
  • (Repeat this for many other pages)

Should we expose them?

Other questions:

  • Should we expose TypeVars?
  • Should we expose other data structures that are used for typing?
    • If so, should they be moved to shiny.types?

Research direction

Start with the rendered /api/ExFillingLayout.html page and the listed shiny.ui option types, then inspect how other API pages expose typing structures. Resolve the policy questions for TypeVars and other typing-only data structures, including whether they belong in shiny.types; done means the exposure rules are decided and applied consistently across the affected pages.
