I believe is a problem with RStudio that broke compatibility with binder, specifically with jupyer-rsession-proxy, https://github.com/jupyterhub/jupyter-rsession-proxy/issues/95 and related issues. I think it is at least partly addressed now but we may still need to set the env var to force the effect.
resolved by rocker-org/rocker-versioned2#309
(Note: I forward this issue from https://github.com/benmarwick/rrtools/issues/139; full details are available there.)
I noticed that using binder with R 4.0.x images results in an error screen, with Rstudio failing to launch properly. An example is available in this repo, when clicking on the binder button at the top of README.md: https://github.com/frederic-santos/rrtools
Changing the version number of the docker image specified in the
.binder
top-level folder, switching fromrocker/binder:4.0.3
torocker/binder:3.6.0
for instance (or any rocker image prior to the 4.0.x family), is enough to get rid of the bug.Is there any good reason for that on the rocker side?
Thanks!
