Makefile/shell script issues

[abaghela]

• easily created the virtual env and installed the R packages.
• could not run run_analysis or Makefile initially because I was getting the error that tidyverse was not installed. (is this only on my end? Maybe I have an R version that is incompatible with your code)
• ran the "run_analysis.sh" and could not get past the pre_process_seismophobia.R script
• the Makefile was well commented and the commands were right.
• Maybe reach out to me at Milestone 4 and we can see if these errors are fixed when you finalize your Makefile/Docker container

Hi @abaghela - thanks for the feedback. Can definitely see how we would lose marks if you can't get past the preprocessing script.

We were using an renv setup for managing R versions on Milestone 3 - if you open our R project file with Rstudio, then run renv::restore() from the console it should reinstall the necessary packages within our project folder on your machine. After that is done installing (may take a while) you can just use the run_analysis.sh script as you were. Our code will run on any R > 3.6.

The error tidyverse not installed is likely due to the renv not being setup first. Let us know if this makes sense and if it helps. We had minor issues on Mac with the renv but we ultimately got it working (before undoing it for the Dockerfile in Milestone 4).

Thanks, Dustin
