Create selection for filter based on interactive ggplot using javascript

I created the following Rmarkdown file to make a selection based on clicking an interactive ggplot.

In the javascript chunk I would like to use instead of "A" the letter (A or B) obtained from
the onclick event in the interactive ggplot. If the user clicks on polygon B then the "A" should become a "B".

```{r, echo = FALSE, message = FALSE}
library(ggplot2)
library(ggiraph)

# Rectangle A
group_A <- data.frame(x1 = 0, 
                  x2 = 3, 
                  y1 = 0, 
                  y2 = 1, 
                  r = "A")

# Polygon B
group_B <- data.frame(x = c(3,4,4,0,0,3), 
                      y = c(0,0,2,2,1,1), 
                      r = "B")

p <- ggplot() + 
  geom_rect_interactive(data = group_A, 
                        aes(xmin = x1, xmax = x2, ymin = y1, 
                            ymax = y2, data_id = r, onclick = r), 
                        alpha = .1, color = "black") + 
  geom_polygon_interactive(data = group_B, 
                           aes(x = x, y = y, data_id = r, onclick = r), 
                           alpha = .1, color = "black") + 
  annotate("text", x = 0.1, y = .82, 
           label = "A",
           fontface = 2, hjust = 0) +
  annotate("text", x = 0.1, y = 1.82, 
           label = "B", 
           fontface = 2, hjust = 0) +
  theme_void()

girafe(ggobj = p)

```

Javascript chunk:

```{js}
$(document).ready(function() {
    document.getElementById("filter").getElementsByClassName("selectized"[0].selectize.setValue("A", false);
 });
```

How can I achieve this?
