SciViews-K is an addons to integrate R and the R language in Komodo Edit/IDE

'SciViews::R' Dialect for Data Processing and Visualization

{SciViews} mainly provides the SciViews::R dialect through the function of the same name. It loads a series of tidyverse and SciViews packages in order to supplement base R with functions to implement that dialect. See, for instance the books Science des Données Biologiques I and Science des Données Biologiques II (in French) for extensive examples of the use of SciViews::R.

Installation

{SciViews} is available from CRAN, but it is an old version. You should install it from the SciViews R-Universe. To install this package and its dependencies, run the following command in R:

install.packages('SciViews', repos = c('https://sciviews.r-universe.dev',
  'https://cloud.r-project.org'))

An older version of {SciViews} can be installed from CRAN:

install.packages("SciViews")

You can also install the latest development version. Make sure you have the {remotes} R package installed:

install.packages("remotes")

Use install_github() to install the {SciViews} package from GitHub (source from main branch will be recompiled on your machine):

remotes::install_github("SciViews/SciViews")

R should install all required dependencies automatically, and then it should compile and install {SciViews}.

You can get further help about this package this way: Make the {SciViews} package and all the other packages required by the SciViews::R dialect available in your R session:

sciviewsk's Issues

problem starting R in Komodo with sciviews-k (Ubuntu)

i have successfully installed sciviews-k and am now trying to start an R session in Komodo.
in the R -> Configure R i have 'use this application: /usr/bin/R' (with the --quiet option) which is correct as it is where R lives on my machine. then it says that this command will be used to start R:
x-terminal-emulator -e '/usr/bin/R --quiet' --args --svStartPkgs=SciViews

however, when i try to run R (with or without the --quiet option) an x terminal pops up along with a shell window with a red box in it saying:

There was an error creating the child process for this terminal
Failed to execute child process "/usr/bin/R --quiet" (No such file or directory)

and offering me two options: either to relaunch (which obviously fails) or to go to profile settings, which i did but found nothing i could alter to amend the situation.
