如何从 R Shiny selectInput() 中的列表中提取元素名称而不是值？

Question

我想从 R Shiny 的 selectInput() 中用于 choices 参数的列表中提取元素名称，而不是特定值。

selectInput 函数如下所示：

# ...
selectInput("xvar", "What is the predictor variable?",
                        choices = list("MPG" = "mpg",
                                       "Cylinders" = "cyl",
                                       "Engine Displacement" = "disp",
                                       "Horse Power" = "hp",
                                       "Gears" = "gear"),
# ...

在我的 server.R 代码中，我想使用“Cylinders”而不是“cyl”作为轴标签。例如（使用 ggplot2）：

# ...
labs(x = input$xvar, y = input$yvar) +
# ...

names(input$xvar)returns NULL。有什么办法叫input$xvar和return这个名字吗？

感谢 Paul 的评论、他提供的链接和 this SO 线程，我能够回答我的问题。

下面我提供了旧的 ui.R 和 server.R 脚本，它们生成了我不满意的轴标签，以及新的 ui.R 和 server.R 脚本，其中轴标签得到改进。（新脚本中的更改用 # diff 标记）

旧 ui.R:

shinyUI(fluidPage(
    titlePanel("Fit Regression Line for Chosen Variables and Points"),
    sidebarLayout(
        sidebarPanel(
            h2("Model Specifics"), br(),
            selectInput("xvar", "What is the predictor variable?",
                        choices = list("MPG" = "mpg",
                                       "Cylinders" = "cyl",
                                       "Engine Displacement" = "disp",
                                       "Horse Power" = "hp",
                                       "Gears" = "gear"),
                        multiple = FALSE),
            selectInput("yvar", "What is the outcome variable?",
                        choices = list("MPG" = "mpg",
                                       "Cylinders" = "cyl",
                                       "Engine Displacement" = "disp",
                                       "Horse Power" = "hp",
                                       "Gears" = "gear"),
                        multiple = FALSE, selected = "cyl"),
            h4("Intercept"), textOutput("int"),
            h4("Slope"), textOutput("slope")
        ),
        mainPanel(
            br(), h2("Display"), h4("Drag to select which points to include in model"),
            plotOutput("plot", brush = brushOpts(id = "brush1"))
        )
    )
))

旧 server.R:

shinyServer(function(input, output) {
        model <- reactive({
                points <- brushedPoints(mtcars, brush = input$brush1,
                                        xvar = input$xvar,
                                        yvar = input$yvar)
                if(nrow(points) <= 1) {
                        return(NULL)
                } else {

                                             "~", input$xvar)),
                           data = points)
                }
        })
        output$int <- renderText({
                if(is.null(model())) {
                        "Too few data points selected"
                } else {
                        round(model()[[1]][1], 2)
                }
        })
        output$slope <- renderText({
                if(is.null(model())) {
                        "Too few data points selected"
                } else {
                        round(model()[[1]][2], 2)
                }
        })
        output$plot <- renderPlot({
                library(ggplot2)
                ggplot(mapping = aes(x = mtcars[, input$xvar],
                                     y = mtcars[, input$yvar])) +
                        theme_minimal() +
                        geom_point() +
                        labs(x = input$xvar, y = input$yvar) +
                        coord_cartesian(x = c(0, 1.2*max(mtcars[, input$xvar])),
                                        y = c(0, 1.2*max(mtcars[, input$yvar]))) +
                if(!is.null(model())) {
                        geom_abline(intercept = model()[[1]][1], slope = model()[[1]][2],
                                    colour = "red", lwd = 2, alpha = 0.3)
                }
        })
