Error message with no internet connection #974

Open elong0527 opened 2 years ago

The code below will result in error message when we work on a computer without internet connection (within company firewall)

Could we have an option to avoid running the code as the stan function seems did not return any value from stanc_beta

Note: the stanc_beta is called within try() and does not return any value. So the error message is not actually an ERROR for stan function.

The code below seems address the issue. But this option is not documented in the rstan_options help page. 

rstan_options(javascript = FALSE)
