* rstudio: Fix recompilation issue with custom package setChris Hodapp2017-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | This attempts to fix the issue described at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/22219#issuecomment-291801133. Any change to the custom packages passed to RStudio causes this to completely rebuild RStudio, which is completely unnecessary and also a bit of a hindrance as it's a fairly slow build. This rolls back most of that old PR, and instead implements something more like rWrapper. Existing configurations with the old useRPackages will break.
* RStudio: Optionally allow packages from custom R environmentChris Hodapp2017-01-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | https://nixos.org/nixpkgs/manual/#r-packages contains a method for setting up an R environment with a specific set of libraries, and it creates an R wrapper which points R to those libraries. The package RStudio relies on the standard R package, which then cannot access any of the libraries specified in a custom R environment. While one may easily use pkgs.rstudio.override to change rstudio's R dependency to the custom R environment, this accomplishes nothing because while RStudio runs the correct R wrapper it clears out the environment variable R_LIBS_SITE - and so it is still unable to use any of those packages. In order to work around this problem, these changes allow the user to optionally modify rstudio's wrapper to set environment variable R_PROFILE_USER to an R script which sets R's .libPaths(..) to point to the same libraries; that script is generated from R_LIBS_SITE in the R wrapper. By default, this change has no effect. If R is overridden to something else, and if useRPackages is changed from its default of false, then the change described above is made; for instance: { packageOverrides = pkgs: let self = pkgs.pkgs; in rec { rEnv = pkgs.rWrapper.override { packages = with self.rPackages; [ dplyr ggplot2 e1071 rpart reshape ]; }; rstudioEnv = pkgs.rstudio.override { R = rEnv; useRPackages = true; }; }; }
