Happy to share that now provides 24.04, 3.19, and of course 4.4.0.

20.7k CRAN packages, and 400+ BioConductor packages as apt binaries with fast and full resolution of all dependencies.

: Fast. Easy. Reliable. Pick All Three.

Some reflections about repositories: https://llrs.dev/post/2024/05/05/packaging-r-getting-in/
Which definition of cran-like repository do you normally use for R?

specphil,
@specphil@fosstodon.org avatar

@Lluis_Revilla there are various ways to extend, like building packages from remote sources like GitHub. For an easy setup, you can use our {rix} package, e.g. here are some vignettes on topics like remote dependencies https://b-rodrigues.github.io/rix/articles/z-advanced-topic-handling-packages-with-remote-dependencies.html feedback is appreciated as we are currently addressing feedback from ROpenSci cc @brodriguesco

By far not a expert, but my feeling is that if I have to run poetry install -vvv that’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to reproducibility. Very hard to unfreeze it 🧊 @brodriguesco reminds me of your collage, think I need some “So long, poetry and Docker, thanks for all the fish" cast😇

Long knives at CRAN. My (old) local script watching Rcpp usage changes see 135 fewer packages at CRAN (!!): 20594 versus 20729 (and 21 fewer Rcpp uses). That is a Yuge delta to yesterday, and it will take a few more (hourly) @CRANberriesFeed messages (which I cap to one removal message per run) to catch up....

(Subsequent closer look confirms 139 removals which is likely a new record.)

This R rant by @hendrikerz has got quite some attention on the bird site. The R community over here might have missed it due to the missing tag.

I don‘t agree with much, but some points are worth for discussion / improvement.

DuckDB 🦆 + dplyr 🔧= duckplyr 🚀🚀🚀

DuckDB released a new R package - duckplyr, which enables running dplyr functions using the DuckDB engine on the backend ❤️. The package, on the backend, translates and maps the dplyr code into DuckDB. This will enable dplyr users to work with large datasets with higher performance.

What are some of the biggest threats to open-source data science today? Posit's Wes McKinney joins Ken Jee's Nearest Neighbors podcast, discussing that topic & more.

If you're curious about where open-source tooling for analytics is headed, and threats to keeping analytics best practice open, you should definitely have a listen.

rswitch?

something else?

I don't have a dog in this fight, but I second that the {rix} by @brodriguesco is very handy and smooth experience if you wish to install Nix on your OS.

{arrow} 15.0.1 is now on CRAN! See https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/arrow/index.html.

This release contains a couple of nice additions as well as some documentation and bug fixes.

@amoeba good news about in my PR to fix arrow for MacOS (darwin) in version 15.0.1 in got merged (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/294933). We now directly use arrow R release version from GitHub and need no patch (thanks to Justin Bedő for the simple solution). Everything goes after the version provided in upstream arrow-cpp (https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=unstable&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=arrow-cpp corresponds to libarrow) thanks also @brodriguesco and @kupac for the helpful inputs. for a test on fly nix-shell -p R rPackages.arrow

Here are some great tutorials on using Nix with R versions. Thank you @brodriguesco

https://www.brodrigues.co/tags/nix/

and videos, e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3t83-2aNwY

I just tried getting started with and despite the great systems crafters material provided by @daviwil on Guile, found installation of Nix was much easier, and seems to have more up-to-date package ecosystem than Guix.

Worth a look @lgatto

hi Bruno,
thank you for making the video showing the httpgd package. I managed to get a proof-of-concept for using httpgd to view plots directly within Emacs, rather than using a web-browser.

https://github.com/sje30/ess-unigd

I still think the httpgd solution within a web browser is neat, and probably more useful for now than Emacs, but this was an itch I've had for ESS for many years.
