Unable to run visidata from R #10

Closed rbratslaver closed 7 months ago

rbratslaver commented 2 years ago

Hi - thanks for making this package! I'm trying to give it a go, wondering if you know what might be causing this. 

> library(rvisidata)
> rvisidata::vd(iris)
Loading required package: jsonlite
Warning message:
In system2(vd_cmd, args = temp_file) : '"vd"' not found

I suspect it's related to the below and my install of visidata. I can open visidata by typing "visidata" in the command line, but not through the vd filename.csv method on Windows.

>vd --version
'vd' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Thanks for any help on this!

You need to have visidata in your local environment. Here is how you install it: https://www.visidata.org/install/
