Feel free to contribute to this document to provide up-to-date information for other distributions (e.g., RedHat, Fedora). Today, the stable versions of the most common distributions provide recent enough versions of R: - Debian (stretch) ships with [[https://packages.debian.org/stretch/r-base][R 3.3.3-1]], [[https://packages.debian.org/stretch/r-cran-knitr][knitr 1.15.1]], and [[https://packages.debian.org/stretch/r-cran-ggplot2][ggplot 2.2.1]] - Ubuntu (bionic 18.04) ships with [[https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/r-base][R 3.4.4]], and [[https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/r-cran-knitr][knitr 1.17]], and [[https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/r-cran-ggplot2][ggplot 2.2.1]] - Ubuntu (artful 17.04) ships with [[https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/r-base][R 3.4.2]], and [[https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/r-cran-knitr][knitr 1.15]], and [[https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/r-cran-ggplot2][ggplot 2.2.1]] If your distribution is older than this, well, it may be a good time for upgrading... *** Installing R First, you need to install the R language and convenient packages by running (as root): #+BEGIN_SRC shell apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install r-base r-cran-knitr r-cran-ggplot2 #+END_SRC Alternatively, if the installation of =r-cran-gplot2= or =r-cran-knitr= fails, you may want to install them locally (through the R packaging system) and manually by running the following commands in R (or RStudio): #+BEGIN_SRC R install.packages("knitr") install.packages("ggplot2") #+END_SRC If you plan to export pdf documents with LaTeX, you probably also want to run (as root): #+begin_src sh :results output :exports both apt-get update ; apt-get install texlive-base #+end_src *** Installing RStudio RStudio is unfortunately not packaged within Debian so the easiest is to download the corresponding Debian package on the [[https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/#download][RStudio webpage]] and then to install it manually (you may have to adjust the version number in the following example). Here is how to install it: #+BEGIN_SRC shell cd /tmp/ wget https://download1.rstudio.org/rstudio-xenial-1.1.453-amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i rstudio-xenial-1.1.453-amd64.deb sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get -f install # to fix possibly missing dependencies #+END_SRC ** Mac OSX and Windows - Install R and Python following the instructions given in a [[https://www.fun-mooc.fr/courses/course-v1:inria+41016+session02/jump_to_id/19c2b1de7766484bae73f3ab133463c6][separate resource]]. - Download and install RStudio from the [[https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download/#download][RStudio webpage]] by choosing the right operating system. - Download and install MiKTeX from the [[https://miktex.org/download][MiKTeX webpage]] by choosing the right operating system. You will be prompted to install some specific packages when exporting to pdf. - Open RStudio and type the following commands in the console to install =knitr= and =ggplot2=: #+BEGIN_SRC R install.packages("knitr", dep=TRUE) install.packages("ggplot2", dep=TRUE) #+END_SRC * RStudio documentation The RStudio team has created a lot of very good material and tutorials. You should definitively look at the [[https://www.rstudio.com/resources/cheatsheets/][Cheat sheets webpage]]. In particular you may want to have look at the following ones: - [[https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/raw/master/rstudio-ide.pdf][The RStudio IDE]], - [[https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/raw/master/rmarkdown-2.0.pdf][R Markdown]] (here is also a [[https://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/][nice step-by-step presentation of Rmarkdown]]), - The [[https://www.rstudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/rmarkdown-reference.pdf][R Markdown Reference guide]], - [[https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/raw/master/data-visualization-2.1.pdf][Data visualization with ggplot2]], - [[https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/raw/master/data-transformation.pdf][Data transformation with dplyr]] In case it helps, here are some (sometimes outdated) French versions of these documents: - [[https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/raw/master/translations/french/rstudio-IDE-cheatsheet.pdf][L'IDE RStudio]] - [[https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/raw/master/translations/french/ggplot2-french-cheatsheet.pdf][Visualisation de données avec ggplot2]] - [[https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/raw/master/translations/french/data-wrangling-french.pdf][Transformation de données avec dplyr]] - [[https://www.fun-mooc.fr/c4x/UPSUD/42001S02/asset/RMarkdown.pdf][Un court document sur R Markdown]] * Using Git from RStudio If you have never used git with RStudio, *we strongly advise that you follow [[https://www.fun-mooc.fr/courses/course-v1:inria+41016+session02/jump_to_id/d132a854b0464ad29085cedaded23136][our tutorial on using git from RStudio]]* (/"RStudio et Gitlab"/ ). Before proceeding, make sure you also have followed the *[[https://www.fun-mooc.fr/courses/course-v1:inria+41016+session02/jump_to_id/7508aece244548349424dfd61ee3ba85]["git/GitLab configuration" tutorial]]*. Alternatively, you may want to watch [[https://www.youtube.com/embed/uHYcDQDbMY8][this video]] (in English). If you do not like videos, you should have a look at the [[https://swcarpentry.github.io/git-novice/14-supplemental-rstudio/index.html][step-by-step explanations from Software Carpentry]]. It comes with many screenshots and is quite progressive. ** Cloning a repository Open RStudio and do the following steps: - Create a new version controled project: =File / New Project / Version Control= #+BEGIN_CENTER [[file:rstudio_images/new_project.png]] [[file:rstudio_images/git.png]] #+END_CENTER - Get the URL from your GitLab repository: #+BEGIN_CENTER [[file:rstudio_images/adresse_depot.png]] #+END_CENTER - Indicate this URL in the "Repository URL" field (/you may want to prefix this URL with =xxx@= where =xxx= is/ /your Gitlab id to avoid repeatedly giving it later on/). #+BEGIN_CENTER [[file:rstudio_images/clone.png]] #+END_CENTER - If you're behind a proxy, git should be configured accordingly. Check the [[https://www.fun-mooc.fr/courses/course-v1:inria+41016+session02/jump_to_id/7508aece244548349424dfd61ee3ba85]["Dealing with proxies" section]]. - Git will then connect to Gitlab and fetch a whole copy of the repository. - RStudio should restart in a mode related to Git: #+BEGIN_CENTER [[file:rstudio_images/rstudio.png]] #+END_CENTER - The file manager on the right, allows you to browse the version controled repository. ** Modifying a file - Open =Module2/exo1/toy_document.Rmd= and perform a simple modification. - Save - Go to the Git menu to commit #+BEGIN_CENTER [[file:rstudio_images/commit.png]] [[file:rstudio_images/commit2.png]] #+END_CENTER - Select the lines to commit and then click on =commit= #+BEGIN_CENTER [[file:rstudio_images/commit5.png]] #+END_CENTER Your modifications have now been commited on your local machine. They haven't been propagated to GitLab yet. - Click on =push= to propagate them on GitLab #+BEGIN_CENTER [[file:rstudio_images/push.png]] [[file:rstudio_images/push2.png]] [[file:rstudio_images/push3.png]] #+END_CENTER *NB*: You won't be able to propagate your modifications on GitLab if some modifications have been done on GitLab in the meantime. [[file:rstudio_images/push4.png]] - You should first merge these remote modifications locally. Click on =pull= to get these modifications on your machine.
