Title: Automating updates to dashboards on Shiny Server
Date: Thursday, January 25th, 18:00 – 20:00 CET (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone)
Speaker: Clinton Oyogo David is a data scientist with 7 years of experience currently working with Oxford Policy Management (OPM) under the Research and Evidence, data innovations team. Prior to joining OPM I was working at World Agroforestry Centre as a junior data scientist in the Spatial Data Science and Applied Learning Lab.
Description: In this workshop, we will talk about the configurations and set ups needed to have an automated update to R Shiny dashboards deployed on a shiny server. The talk will touch on GitHub webhooks, API (Django) and bash scripting. With the set-up in place one will not need to manually update the code on shiny server, a push event to github will be enough to have your changes to the code reflect on the dashboard in a matter of seconds.

If you are not personally interested in attending, you can also contribute by sponsoring a participation of a student, who will then be able to participate for free. If you choose to sponsor a student, all proceeds will also go directly to organisations working in Ukraine. You can either sponsor a particular student or you can leave it up to us so that we can allocate the sponsored place to students who have signed up for the waiting list.
How can I sponsor a student?
- Go to https://bit.ly/3wvwMA6 or https://bit.ly/4aD5LMC or https://bit.ly/3PFxtNA and donate at least 20 euro (or 17 GBP or 20 USD or 800 UAH). Feel free to donate more if you can, all proceeds go to support Ukraine!
- Save your donation receipt (after the donation is processed, there is an option to enter your email address on the website to which the donation receipt is sent)
- Fill in the sponsorship form, attaching the screenshot of the donation receipt (please attach the screenshot of the donation receipt that was emailed to you rather than the page you see after the donation). You can indicate whether you want to sponsor a particular student or we can allocate this spot ourselves to the students from the waiting list. You can also indicate whether you prefer us to prioritize students from developing countries when assigning place(s) that you sponsored.
If you are a university student and cannot afford the registration fee, you can also sign up for the waiting list here. (Note that you are not guaranteed to participate by signing up for the waiting list).
You can also find more information about this workshop series, a schedule of our future workshops as well as a list of our past workshops which you can get the recordings & materials here.
Looking forward to seeing you during the workshop!
