Hello, Is there the possibility to submit an individual "R CMD INSTALL" command for a certain R extension?
Background: --------------------- The R extension "V8" uses hardcoded Paths to the NodeJS "V8" library in its configure step. However I want it to use the NODEJS environment module instead. This is, how the "configure" script of the R extension "V8" looks: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/usr/bin/env bash # ... # If your libv8 is installed in a custom location you need to set # INCLUDE_DIR and LIB_DIR manually via e.g: # R CMD INSTALL --configure-vars='INCLUDE_DIR=/.../include LIB_DIR=/.../lib' # ... PKG_CFLAGS="-I/usr/include/v8 -I/usr/include/v8-3.14" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So indeed, as the comment in the header states, the most promising step would be to submit a R CMD INSTALL command - i.e. R CMD INSTALL --configure-vars='INCLUDE_DIR=/.../include LIB_DIR=/.../lib' Is there an elegant way to do this for an RPackage (exts_defaultclass = 'RPackage') ? Else I'd try to patch the "configure" file from the "V8"-R-extension. Thank you and best regards, Wolfram PS: Thanks Kenneth for pointing out my error in regards to the wrong mail address - which also lead to the discovery of a further grave error in my first mail - which now nobody can see any more :) Wolfram Zieger -------------- Senior Systems Engineer IT Services Berlin Phone: +49 30 2007 697 -12 alt.
