R shiny AngularJS working

I'm creating a dashboard with R and D3 running with library(shiny).

This works wonderfully well and now i want turn the D3 code into modular objects which will save me a lot of coding and makes it usable by others. My idea is to get to this:

<r-d3-gauge id="G1" data="[1,2,3]"></r-d3-gauge>
<r-d3-gauge id="G2" data="[4,5,6]"></r-d3-gauge>

And i have the two gauges that i can position with CSS or just inject them into shiny with HTML(....). Ok this should be simple using AngularJS.

But i can not get AngularJS to work in R shiny. I made this test code: (a www folder with d3.js and angular.min.1.4.3.js next to server.r/ui.r)

ui.r

library(shiny)

shinyUI(fluidPage(
  tags$head(tags$script(src = "d3.js"))
  ,tags$head(tags$script(src = "angular.min.1.4.3.js"))
  ,htmlOutput("JS")
  ,htmlOutput("HTML")
))

server.r

library(shiny)

shinyServer(function(input, output) {
# HTML
 output$HTML <- renderUI({
  html <- ''
  html <- paste0(html,'
   <p>Input something in the input box:</p>
   <h4>Name: <input type="text" ng-model="name"></h4>
   <h4 ng-bind="name"></h4>
   <h4>Name: <input type="text" ng-model="name2"></h4>
   <h4>You wrote: {{name2}}</h4>
  ')
  HTML(html)
 })

# JS
 output$JS <- renderUI({
  html <- "<script language='JavaScript'>"
  html <- paste0(html,'
   if(typeof angular == "undefined") {
    console.log("angular == undefined");
   } else {
    console.log("angular == defined");
    console.log(angular.version.full)
   }
   if (window.jQuery) {  
    console.log("jQuery == defined");
    console.log(jQuery.fn.jquery);
   } else {
    console.log("jQuery == undefined");
   }
  d3.select("body")
    .attr("ng-app","")
  $(document).ready(function(){
    $("p").click(function(){
     $(this).hide();
    });
  });
  </script>')
 HTML(html)
})
})

This creates a shiny app with html code that is fine, the test shows that

angular == defined
1.4.3
jQuery == defined
2.1.4

So no problem there. jQuery works fine (you can click on "Input something in the input box:" and it is hidden) but if i enter text it does not show up. If i try something like:

<p>Name: <input type="text" ng-model="name2"></p>
<p>You wrote: {{ name2 }}</p> 

it wil show You wrote: {{ name2 }} without subsetting the {{name2}} part.

OK this works:

ui.r

library(shiny)
shinyUI(bootstrapPage(includeHTML("static.html")))

server.r

library(shiny)
shinyServer(function(input, output) {})

static.html

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
  <head>
    <script src="http://d3js.org/d3.v3.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.4.0/angular.js"></script>  
  </head>  
  <body>
    <script language='JavaScript'>

      if(typeof angular == "undefined") {
        console.log("angular == undefined");
      } else {
        console.log("angular == defined");
        console.log(angular.version.full)
      }

      if (window.jQuery) {  
        console.log("jQuery == defined");
        console.log(jQuery.fn.jquery);
      } else {
        console.log("jQuery == undefined");
      }

      d3.select("body").attr("ng-app","")
    </script>

      <p>Input something in the input box:</p>
      <p>Name: <input type="text" ng-model="name"></p>
      <p ng-bind="name"></p>
      <h4>Name: <input type="text" ng-model="name2"></h4>
      <h4>You wrote: {{name2}}</h4>

  </body>
</html>

Et voila, Up and Running ! :^)
