Installing Poster Problems

[ghost]

Hi,

First, thank you for making this binding in R. I am trying to install poster, but I am running into an issue. Already installed all dependencies and libpostal. Even though, I am running into this error.

I am not sure where is the error. If you can help me to point the problem, it will be great.

Thank you, Alex

Heya! Sorry about that. Try now?

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. Sadly, I still have a problem in installing the R binding. I was able to run libpostal using python in the terminal. Here is the error:

Well, that's one way to implement varargs :-).

Incidentally, one of the first articles that comes up in Googling the 20-arg limit is https://ironholds.org/blog/creating-large-data-frames-in-rcpp/. So I take it something like this is needed @Ironholds?

[Ironholds]

Iiindeed. I'll put this bugfix next on my to-do list and see if I can't tidy up some of the code while I'm there.

[tchakravarty]

@Ironholds Same issue, I also have libpostal installed, in a non-standard location. While I was able to get Rpostal working by using the libpostal_path argument to its functions, since poster looks for the installation of libpostal at install time, I was not able to get it to work.

[Ironholds]

By nonstandard location do you mean it's not on the lconfig path, or?

[ghost]

@Ironholds @thatdatabaseguy I was wondering if I have to have libpostal in a particular directory so that poster can find it during the installation?

[Ironholds]

What operating system are you using?

[ghost]

I am using Mac OS X

[Ironholds]

Where and how are you installing it?

[ghost]

Where: /Users/asoto/projects/packages/libpostal

How: Using brew

[Ironholds]

Well, I can't speak to whether brew actually configures the linking flags properly, but to be clear the current bug you're running into is entirely unrelated to install location - it's a limitation of my current C++ binding, and one I hope to correct this evening.

[Ironholds]

The current repo shoould fix your problem. Let me know if it reappears. Fix aside, though, the code is now looking hella gross and I need to clean it up.

[ghost]

Success, thank you!!
