knitr engine = bash。想要为每个块分别设置工作目录

标签: r shell knitr

我需要写一些关于使用shell的讲座。我已经完成了100多个Sweaved R文档。当我看到knitr有bash引擎(http://yihui.name/knitr/demo/engines)时,我将它用于测试用例。

这很好用,不太好。块没有正在进行的会话,每个块评估都从文档的工作目录开始。两者之间没有意识 大块,因此很难以连贯的方式写下“cd”和“pwd”。

我希望每个块都有一个参数“working.directory”。

如果您知道其他方法,我会全神贯注。目前,我正在探索Emacs组织模式作为替代方案。它有一种方法来为每个块设置工作目录。但风格更难。

这是我的knitr测试文档,

## Getting Started in the Shell

### Start a Terminal Emulator
   * Mac (Utilities/Terminal, iTerm, many others)

   * Windows (Git for Windows provides a BASH shell). Others available (Cygwin, Ubuntu BASH for Windows)

   * Linux (many terminal programs, some more exciting than others)

### High points
   * Type commands, see textual output

   * Not much pointing and clicking (copy/paste possible on some)

### What is a Shell?
   * Computer has many settings that programs can access. A "shell"
     is a "behind the scenes" program that keeps those settings
     and passes them out to programs when needed
   * BASH: Bourne Again Shell, a widely-used shell
   * Almost all Unix/Mac systems will have many shell programs
     available, such as "sh", "bash", "dash", and so forth. We
     are mostly interested in BASH because it has the most user comfort
   * A terminal program relies on the shell to translate between user and operating system

#### **Prompt**. Where you type 
   * Prompt might be verbose 
```
pauljohn:Documents/Projects $
```
   * On some it is very lean, just the dollar sign
```
$
```
   * Dollar sign is customary prompt for non-root user (non-administrators)
   * Prompt is configurable, it is a good exercise for somebody who has used the Terminal for a week or two on a daily basis.

## Basic things to type

#### What is my working directory
```{r getwd}
pwd
```

```{r ls}
ls
```
See there, the output says it is still in my working directory
where the document is, not "/tmp" as requested.

The following efforts produce errors if you uncomment them.

I can't figure even how to change directory with system or Sys.setenv.

<!-- ```{r whoami5} -->
<!-- system("cd /tmp") -->
<!-- ls -->
<!-- ``` -->



<!-- ```{r whoami6} -->
<!-- Sys.setenv(PWD = "/tmp") -->
<!-- ls -->
<!-- ``` -->

答案 0 :(得分:1)

这是一个有效的解决方案。它没有实现持久的BASH会话,但它实现了与Emacs org-mode相同的解决方法。它允许为各种代码BASH块分别设置工作目录。这几乎和持久的shell会话一样好。

HOWTO?在引擎中使用knitr :: opts_knitr =&#34; R&#34;当需要更改工作目录时,代码块可以在块之间重置root.dir。以下bash块尊重新设置。

只有@Yihui可以告诉我们这是否会导致缓存等等;关于R块中的setwd有强烈的警告。

以下是可行的示例,首先从工作目录开始&#34; / tmp&#34;然后我的主目录&#34;〜&#34;。

## Basic things to type

#### What is my working directory. These are BASH chunks, not R chunks!
```{r getwd}
pwd
```

```{r ls}
ls
```

Here is how I change directory for following bash chunks.
Note engine = bash in this document, so we set R 
engine just for this one

```{r, engine = "R"}
opts_knit$set(root.dir="~")
```

```{r ls2}
ls
```      

我刚上传了html输出作为编译的证据:
