Does not work on MacOS with IntelliJ IDEA 2016.2

[pranasblk]

Looks like *.so binary is not compatible with El Capitan ...

I'm not sure if it is config/plugin/IDE issue. It works from cmd:

$ /usr/local/bin/R --no-save --quiet
>

But not from R run-time configuration: Script: location to .r script Working Directory: location to .r script

/usr/local/bin/R --no-save --quiet
Error in dyn.load("/Users/pranas/Library/Application Support/IntelliJIdea2016.2/TheRPlugin/libtherplugin_device64.so") :

Hello! This binary could be disabled by renaming. It's responsible for graphics integration into IDEA.

Hi Sproshev, I'm using Intellij Community 2016 and Mac OS X EL Capitan and I have the same error as pranasblk.

[dltacube]

I'm having the same issue as well. Renaming libtherplugin_device64.so allows me to run R code again.

[HuilinChen]

Heyoni, Does the R Graphics work properly in your intellij after renaming the file? It still doesn't work for me, though the error message is gone.

[dltacube]

No, graphics don't work after renaming that file.

[sproshev]

@HuilinChen @heyoni Graphics integration is based on this file. When plugin can't find .so-file, it disables integration.

Maybe we need to configure /usr/local/bin/Rscript as R interpreter instead? However, the script specified in the run configuration seems not to be passed to the interpreter in my case:

/usr/local/bin/Rscript --no-save --quiet

Process finished with exit code 1

Environment: IntelliJ 2016.2.3, OS X 10.11.6, R 3.3.1.

[sproshev]

@tuabache The script is passed but not directly. Could you please setup environment variable as shown below (Run - Edit Configurations) and attach output?

[tuabache]

@sproshev Thanks for your message. Still the same output:

/usr/local/bin/Rscript --no-save --quiet

Process finished with exit code 1

with runtime config as suggested:

[sproshev]

@tuabache What do you see after running /usr/local/bin/Rscript in terminal? Any GUI?

[arnauldvm]

Hello, nice tool! (Well, potentially)

But I suffer from the same problem as described above. ther.debugger.io=true had no visible effect

It seems that, for some reason, the name of the script is not given as argument to Rscript:

/usr/local/bin/Rscript --no-save --quiet --args xxx
file name is missing

Process finished with exit code 1

Expected: /usr/local/bin/Rscript --no-save --quiet myscript.r --args xxx

@sproshev There's no GUI coming up when running /usr/local/bin/Rscript in terminal; here's the output (as I'd expect):

$ /usr/local/bin/Rscript
Usage: /path/to/Rscript [--options] [-e expr [-e expr2 ...] | file] [args]

--options accepted are
  --help              Print usage and exit
  --version           Print version and exit
  --verbose           Print information on progress
  --default-packages=list
                      Where 'list' is a comma-separated set
                        of package names, or 'NULL'
or options to R, in addition to --slave --no-restore, such as
  --save              Do save workspace at the end of the session
  --no-environ        Don't read the site and user environment files
  --no-site-file      Don't read the site-wide Rprofile
  --no-init-file      Don't read the user R profile
  --restore           Do restore previously saved objects at startup
  --vanilla           Combine --no-save, --no-restore, --no-site-file
                        --no-init-file and --no-environ

'file' may contain spaces but not shell metacharacters
Expressions (one or more '-e <expr>') may be used *instead* of 'file'

[aristotll]

same problem ...

[ottbot]

Any idea where is the source is for these libraries? The binaries are checked into the repo, where did they come from?

[sproshev]

@ottbot Here is the source https://github.com/sproshev/TheRPlugin_Device

[steinmb]

Same problem here - PhpStorm2016.3 and MacOS 10.12.2 - R installed with homebrew.

Error in dyn.load("/Users/steinmb/Library/Application Support/PhpStorm2016.3/TheRPlugin/libtherplugin_device64.so") :

If I try to use Rscript as runner the R script files is not passed as argument.

@sproshev

1. Would you mind if I import the code from https://github.com/sproshev/TheRPlugin_Device into the codbase of https://github.com/holgerbrandl/r4intellij. There is no license in your code at the moment, so I'm not sure about how I could use it

2. Could you provide some hints how to build it? I've tried on MacOS but struggled. Maybebecuase TheRPlugin_Device/cmake/modules/FindR.cmakedoes not contain configuration branch for MacOS? But even when adding

   elseif (APPLE)
   set(R_INCLUDE_DIRS "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.3_devel/Resources/include/") # Default include directory
   
   set(R_64_LIBRARIES R_64_LIBRARIES-NOTFOUND)
   set(R_32_LIBRARIES R_32_LIBRARIES-NOTFOUND)
   
   if (R_BIT EQUAL 64)
       find_library(R_64_LIBRARIES NAMES R HINTS "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/lib") # Default lib directory
   elseif (R_BIT EQUAL 32)
       find_library(R_32_LIBRARIES NAMES R HINTS "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/lib") # Default lib directory
   endif ()
   endif ()

   make dies with the error

Any help would be highly appreciated.

@holgerbrandl

1. Feel free to use it in the same way as this plugin :)

2. I was reading this CMakeLists.txt and all its dependecies while writing TheRPlugin_Device/cmake/modules/FindR.cmake and TheRPlugin_Device/CMakeLists.txt. It's better to check how RStudio developers setup their environment for MacOS.
