r 3.4 about radiant

[subhashjaini]

Thanks again!! :)

Overall, all I needed to do was this...
(for ubuntu or debian)
sudo apt-get install librsvg2-dev
sudo su - -c "R -e "install.packages('rsvg', repos='http://vnijs.github.io/radiant_miniCRAN/')\""
sudo su - -c "R -e "install.packages('radiant', repos='http://vnijs.github.io/radiant_miniCRAN/')\""

and I was good!!!

For a linux server remove type = 'binary' and make sure to specify the correct repo (see below) . It should install from source and the latest version of Radiant is available. Note that you cannot knit reports on a server as this would be a security risk.

install.packages("radiant", repos = "http://vnijs.github.io/radiant_miniCRAN/")

[subhashjaini]

I tried this

sudo su - -c "R -e "install.packages('radiant', repos='http://vnijs.github.io/radiant_miniCRAN/')\""

It tells me the same when I run the install.packages (in r)

On linux rsvg may require you to install a system utility first. Try the following and then see what it needs:

install.packages("rsvg", repos = "http://vnijs.github.io/radiant_miniCRAN/")

gibberish to me, but maybe this rings a bell to you...?

The utility it needs is shown in the message as suggested.

"No package 'librsvg-2.0' found"

If you are using Ubuntu you would need something like

sudo apt-get install librsvg2-bin

[subhashjaini]

sudo apt-get install librsvg2-bin

ran... but now i tried the rsvg again and had no luck

[subhashjaini]

I am trying
sudo apt-get install librsvg2-dev

since thts what the error recomended

[subhashjaini]

awesome!! that unlocked it and let me download radiant on ubuntu!! Later int he summer when im bored, ill write a how-to on radiant inside digital ocean! :)

[vnijs]

Glad that worked. Good to have this a (closed) issue in case others run into the same thing.

[RSchwinn]

I ran into issues installing radiant on an under-powered ubuntu server. The problem was that R on ubuntu requires that dependencies be compiled locally from the R source code (downloaded from cran) but compiling sometimes required more than the 1GB RAM on my system. The work around is to install the packages from precompiled binaries as follows:

sudo apt-get update     # refresh
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository -y "ppa:marutter/rrutter"
sudo add-apt-repository -y "ppa:marutter/c2d4u"
sudo apt-get update     # now with new repos
sudo apt-get install r-cran-readr # now replace readr with the names of the dependencies that previously failed to install.

Notice that this may be risky because these files were not officially compiled/distributed by cran. Hope this can help someone else facing this issue!

[vnijs]

@RSchwinn I forgot that ubuntu offers binaries for (some) R-packages. Thanks for sharing.

FYI Radiant development moved to https://github.com/radiant-rstats a while back. Install instructions are available at: https://radiant-rstats.github.io/docs/install.html

Hey man!! You still around?

Can you help me move environment variables across sessions? I'll pay a little

Please clarify what you mean @subhashjaini. Example?

[subhashjaini]

Sure! I have a production job that runs in sql server 2016. It starts a new session, then loads a file, then runs. If I can keep a session on in my server machine, and a tool can access it, it'd be great

I think you are asking about running Radiant inside sqlserver. If so ... I have never done anything like that. If that is not what you are after, please provide (a lot) more detail.

[subhashjaini]

Radiant allows you to pull variables from multiple r sessions, I want that aspect of radiant Can you help with that? Ignore the fact that this is sql server....can you help me get a variable from one session to another through memory?

Sorry. No idea what you mean by "r session" here :)

Are you trying to access data from the global environment or from a database? You can use Data > Manage to access data in the global environment. If you want data from a database, use Report > Rmd and specify the connection information. Then "register" the data.frame so you can access it from the dropdown menu's (https://radiant-rstats.github.io/radiant.data/reference/register.html)

[subhashjaini]

I want to access data from one live r session to another like your app does. The global environment seems to be fit that session, not the machine

Radiant uses the shiny package to communicate between an R process and the browser. There is no communication between different R sessions. Maybe shiny is something you could use or else perhaps https://github.com/r-lib/callr
