xeus-r is a Jupyter kernel for the R programming language.

Installation

xeus-r has been packaged for the mamba package manager on the Linux, Windows, and OS X platforms.

Installation with mamba or conda

The safest usage is to create an environment named xeus-r

mamba create -n xeus-r
mamba activate xeus-r

Then you can install in this environment xeus-r and its dependencies

mamba install xeus-r -c conda-forge

Installing from source

Xeus-r can be built from sources. We recommend installing the dependencies with mamba.

mamba install cmake cxx-compiler xeus-zmq nlohmann_json jupyterlab r-base r-evaluate r-rlang r-jsonlite r-glue r-cli r-repr r-irdisplay -c conda-forge

Then you can compile the sources (replace $CONDA_PREFIX with a custom installation prefix if need be)

mkdir build && cd build && mkdir temp_r_lib
cmake .. -D CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$CONDA_PREFIX -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$CONDA_PREFIX -D CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib
make && make install
