Hi,
I have some issues with running R in our server and hope you would like to help me.
My Target: Running R codes without installing R environment in our server. Server OS: windows
my attempts: I tried to build the R codes into a Binary package with R studio, but I don't how to execute the binary package(*.zip file).
My questions: 1. Is this a correct solution, which builds the R codes into a binary file, to run a R codes without installing R environment?
2. If answer for question 1 is yes, how should I execute or call the R script?
3. Is any another way to achieve my goal?
Thanks!
Sincerely
Daniel
Execute R codes without installing R environment

Hi Daniel, There seems to be a way to package the R interpreter and a program into an executable file. It looks pretty complicated and would only be worth the effort if you _must_ run your script this way and you _can't_ install R. https://www.r-bloggers.com/deploying-desktop-apps-with-r/ Jim

Hi Daniel, There seems to be a way to package the R interpreter and a program into an executable file. It looks pretty complicated and would only be worth the effort if you _must_ run your script this way and you _can't_ install R. https://www.r-bloggers.com/deploying-desktop-apps-with-r/ Deploying Desktop Apps with R | R-bloggers<https://www.r-bloggers.com/deploying-desktop-apps-with-r/> www.r-bloggers.com Step 1: Create a deployment skeleton. Because this technique uses portable apps, you can save yourself some time by creating a skeleton desktop deployment.

1) Producing a zip file most likely means you put your code in a package. This can be a useful thing to do, but it most definitely does not create a standalone executable. 3) You have not communicated your goal clearly. Many people want to treat R on a server as a remote compute resource... you might want to look at the OpenCPU project if that is your goal. Alternatively, using ssh to remotely invoke R at the command line using the parallel package is well supported on Unix-ish operating systems, but that can be more tricky on a Windows server and requires that R be installed. Other people want to log on to their server gui and run code interactively because the server has more RAM/CPU cores/disk space... for that you also need to get R installed first. These options definitely involve the assistance of your sysadmin. If you are trying to get R running without that assistance there are portable installs of R, but you still need the approval of your sysadmin.
