<code>rWrapper</code> simply replaces the R command in your path by a script that sets the environment variable <code>R_LIBS_SITE</code> and then runs R.

== With nix-shell == | |||
Below is an example of a nix-shell build to run R with knitr for R markdown: | |||
'''default.nix''' | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang = "nix"> | |||
let | |||
pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {}; | |||
stdenv = pkgs.stdenv; | |||
in with pkgs; { | |||
myProject = stdenv.mkDerivation { | |||
name = "Speedracer"; | |||
version = "1"; | |||
src = if pkgs.lib.inNixShell then null else nix; | |||
buildInputs = [ | |||
R | |||
rPackages.knitr | |||
rPackages.rmarkdown | |||
rPackages.knitr | |||
]; | |||
}; | |||
} | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
== R with Lorri == | |||
An example of a '''shell.nix''' for usage with [https://github.com/target/lorri lorri] is shown below: | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang = "nix"> | |||
let | |||
pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {}; | |||
in | |||
pkgs.mkShell { | |||
buildInputs = with pkgs; [ | |||
R | |||
rPackages.rmarkdown | |||
rPackages.knitr | |||
]; | |||
} | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
== Other Editors == | |||
'''with vim''' - [https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nvim-r nvim-r] | |||
Note - if you are building an environment and plan on using nvim-r, it cannot also include rstudio, it will break your packages! | |||
'''with emacs''' - [http://ess.r-project.org/ emacs speaks statistics] | |||
