Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-6169:
-------------------------------------
{{install_arrow()}} should only be directing users to install versions on
Homebrew corresponding to releases

> A bit confused by arrow::install_arrow() inR
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-6169
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-6169
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: R
> Reporter: Michael Chirico
> Priority: Minor
>
> Am trying to get up and running on arrow from R for the first time (macOS
> Mojave 10.14.6)
> Started with
> {code:java}
> install.packages('arrow') #success!
> write_parquet(iris, 'tmp.parquet') #oh no!{code}
> and hit the error:
> > Error in Table__from_dots(dots, schema) : Cannot call Table__from_dots().
> >Please use arrow::install_arrow() to install required runtime libraries.
> OK, easy enough:
> {code:java}
> arrow::install_arrow()
> {code}
> With output:
> {code:java}
> You may be able to get a development version of the Arrow C++ library using
> Homebrew: `brew install apache-arrow --HEAD` Or, see the Arrow C++ developer
> guide <https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/cpp.html> for instructions on
> building the library from source.
> After you've installed the C++ library, you'll need to reinstall the R
> package from source to find it.
> Refer to the R package README
> <https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/r/README.md> for further details.
> If you have other trouble, or if you think this message could be improved,
> please report an issue here:
> <https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/ARROW/issues>
> {code}
> A few points of confusion for me as a first time user:
> A bit surprised I'm being directed to install the development version? If the
> current CRAN version of {{arrow}} is only compatible with the dev version, I
> guess that could be made more clear in this message. But on the other hand,
> the linked GH README suggests the opposite: "On macOS and Windows, installing
> a binary package from CRAN will handle Arrow’s C++ dependencies for you."
> However, that doesn't appear to have been the case for me.
> Oh well, let's just try installing the normal version & see if that works:
> {code:java}
> $brew install apache-arrow
> >install.packages('arrow') #reinstall in fresh session
> >arrow::write_parquet(iris, 'tmp.parquet') # same error{code}
> Now I try the dev version:
> {code:java}
> brew install apache-arrow --HEAD
> # Error: apache-arrow 0.14.1 is already installed
> # To install HEAD, first run `brew unlink apache-arrow`.
> brew unlink apache-arrow
> brew install apache-arrow --HEAD
> # Error: An exception occurred within a child process:
> # RuntimeError: /usr/local/opt/autoconf not present or broken
> # Please reinstall autoconf. Sorry :(
> brew install autoconf
> brew install apache-arrow --HEAD
> # Error: An exception occurred within a child process:
> # RuntimeError: /usr/local/opt/cmake not present or broken
> # Please reinstall cmake. Sorry :(
> brew install cmake
> brew install apache-arrow --HEAD
> # cmake ../cpp -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE=-DNDEBUG
> -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE=-DNDEBUG
> -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/Cellar/apache-arrow/HEAD-908b058
> -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK=LAST -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFIL
> # Last 15 lines from
> /Users/michael.chirico/Library/Logs/Homebrew/apache-arrow/01.cmake:
> #
> dlopen(/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/numpy/core/_multiarray_umath.cpython-37m-darwin.so,

> Poked around a bit about that error and what I see suggests re-installing
> {{scipy}} but that didn't work ({{pip install scipy}} nor {{pip3 install
> scipy}}, though the traceback does suggest it's a Python 3 thing)
> So now I'm stuck & not sure how to proceed.
> I'll also add that I'm not sure what to make of this:
> > After you've installed the C++ library, you'll need to reinstall the R
> >package from source to find it.
> What is "find it" referring to exactly? And installing from source here means
> {{R CMD build && R CMD INSTALL}} on the cloned repo?
