Custom Visualization in Power BI

I just learned from the link below that we can use plotly widget from R in Power BI, which I found very inspiring:

https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-visuals/blob/master/RVisualTutorial/CreateRHTML.md

 

However, when I tried to use recharts in R, it failed, giving me the error details as below. Any one knows how to fix this? Thank you in advance.

 

 

Attaching package: 'recharts'

 

The following object is masked from 'package:plotly':

 

    add_heatmap
