Do you only need R for reading the csv? The processing is done by R. Of course, it *could* be done in Lua, but this all depends on what processing is needed, for R contains many libraries of routines (but so *can* lua). For the list, this discussion between Hans and myself follows a presentation that I made at the last ConTeXt Meeting regarding handling large data files in lua (+MetaPost). We are presently working on an article for the Context Journal to document this. Alan P.S.

Hi Claire, you should use Aditya’s filter module to call external programs: https://github.com/adityam/filter There’s a module for R in the distribution (see https://source.contextgarden.net/tex/context/modules/mkii/m-r.mkii), but it’s only for MkII and AFAIK superseded by the filter module.

I’m planing to convert a large but simple document to context. The document consists of 3 Parts. Each part has several chapters. Thus I started to build a project with three products, see enclosed archive. According to my understanding I should be able to context c_01 to get one chapter context prd_A to get one product context project_ecm to get the whole book. Any whole book should be a product, and the Parts should just be components. The project level is only there to connect meta-info across a book series. You are not supposed to run ‘context’ on the project file. That said, it is definitely not your installation or understanding of the wiki page that creates the circular inclusion. The same happens here. I discovered it works OK if I move the \product to within the \startcomponent, and I assume that is how it supposed to work: \startcomponent \product prd_1 … \stopcomponent At a guess, I think the wiki page is wrong. But before editing that, I would like to have confirmation of the above assumption. The \product command is more or less useless because it provides only the information of the main file of the document. The real question is where you should put the \project or \environment commands. When you put them before \startproduct you’re loading your fonts before the start of the document and the Latin Modern fallback isn’t used but when you put them after \startproduct you load your font after the Latin Modern fallback. One advantage when you load the project/environment after \startproduct (or \startcomponent) is that you can use the product or component modes in your environment file to set different image or subpath folder dependant on which file type you typeset. In the end it doesn’t matter whether you load your project/environment before or after \startproduct because there is no difference.

Re: [NTG-context] Need help with project: TeX capacity exceeded
I took a look at your example files and there a few things which can be
improved.
Product file:
1. You don’t need the actual name of the current file and use * instead
2. You can use brackets as delimiters for the file name instead of a
space after the name
3. In products you can put all content in a document environment which
has hooks to insert text etc. at the begin and end of the document
(which can be used to insert a titlepage or endpage). You can even use
\startdocument (or \setupdocument) to set the document name in the pdf
viewer (yes it can also be done with \setupinteraction but
\startdocument is nicer).
A minimal file would be
\startproduct [*]
\project [project_skel]
\startdocument
\component [c_01]
\component [c_02]
\stopdocument
\stopproduct
or
\startproduct [*]
\project [project_skel]
\startdocument
\startbodymatter
\component [c_01]
\component [c_02]
\stopbodymatter
\stopdocument
\stopproduct
Environment file:
1. Don’t load the project from your environment file
2. Don’t use \usepath to set the folders for the product files, use it
instead to set the folders for your component files which are loaded
from the products
3. You can remove the braces around the subfolder which aren’t necessary.

That’s what I do.
Since I wrote that wiki page (some years ago) I’ll change it.
I appreciate that.
How about offering a skeleton project for download?
Here is my corrected ECM with the following README:
This is a skeleton project.
You can copy it and change the files to contain your content.
The top level project collects metatdata to make all products have the same

The products are used to generate the whole book, but you can process each
component seperately to reduce the processing time.
