Hi Gauthier,
Just wondering - have you checked the Rsession project?
(https://code.google.com/p/rsession/)
I don't have any personal experience with it, but it seems to contain the code
to run the Rserve from java.
Cheers,
Tomas

Hi,
My apologies to those who tried to test (hope none of you actually) the release
linked above under Windows. This is working under Linux, but not (completely)
under Windows.
Sorry about that. I try to fix it ASAP and keep you informed.
Cheers

Subject: R usage in MZmine - What about replacing JRIengine to get
multi-threading support?

Hi everyone,
I begun to use Rserve (multi-threaded), instead of JRIengine (singleton /
mono-threaded), in my personal experimental branch and really think we could
replace JRIengine (which does not take advantage of parallel tasks processing,
as you know), by the former.
I released a version using Rserve (restricted to the "Baseline Correction
Module"). If you want to give it a try, here it is:
https://sourceforge.net/p/mzmine/code/HEAD/tree/branches/gboaglio-experimental/target/MZmine-2.11-EEE-release-20141128.zip
Main points:
-----------
* Requirements:
------------
No changes in "startMZmine" script (we just need to locate "R_HOME", as
usual).
The only requirement is to have the "Rserve" R package installed. Then it
is ran through a simple R command, looking like:
library(Rserve);Rserve(debug=TRUE/FALSE, args="--RS-enable-control")
# Where '--RS-enable-control' is used and mandatory to enable sending
"SIGKILL/SIGTERM" to the Rserve instances
# (when we need to abort a blocking 'eval' being performed)
(Note: we already had to install "rJava" for using JRI). So this does not
stand for a big additional constraint for the user.
=> The Rserve runnable (server app.) comes with the said R package
Note: I believe we could even simplify the "startMZmine" workflow, by first
trying to detect the R location automatically.
(the environment variables to be assigned in the script would be used
only as a fallback in case the detection failed)
That would more or less look like (See: RUtilities.java) :
public static String getRexecutablePath() {
String osname = System.getProperty("os.name");
if (osname != null && osname.length() >= 7 &&
osname.substring(0,7).equals("Windows")) {
LOG.log(Level.INFO, "Windows: query registry to find where
R is installed ...");
String installPath = null;
try {
Process rp = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("reg query
HKLM\\Software\\R-core\\R");
StreamHog regHog = new StreamHog(rp.getInputStream(),
true);
rp.waitFor();
regHog.join();
installPath = regHog.getInstallPath();
} catch (Exception rge) {
LOG.log(Level.SEVERE, "ERROR: unable to run REG to find
the location of R: "+rge);
return null;
}
if (installPath == null) {
LOG.log(Level.SEVERE, "ERROR: canot find path to R.
Make sure reg is available and R was installed with registry settings.");
return null;
}
return installPath + "\\bin\\R.exe<smb://bin//R.exe>";
}
File f = new
File("/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R");
if (f.exists()) return f.getPath();
f = new File("/usr/local/lib/R/bin/R");
if (f.exists()) return f.getPath();
f = new File("/usr/lib/R/bin/R");
if (f.exists()) return f.getPath();
f = new File("/sw/bin/R");
if (f.exists()) return f.getPath();
f = new File("/usr/common/bin/R");
if (f.exists()) return f.getPath();
f = new File("/opt/bin/R");
if (f.exists()) return f.getPath();
return null;
}
* The way it works:
----------------
Rserve is a server (implements a communication protocol with R) and, to
keep it simple, it should be run on localhost and default
port 6311 (this is something that should probably be mentioned to the user,
for security and eventually firewall configuration reasons).
Each time we create a new "RConnection", the main instance of Rserve starts
a new child process.
- We can store the PID of this instance for later termination.
- We can run asynchronously as many instances as we want (as long as we
take care to close/terminate the ones that are no longer used).
=> I already implemented a basic wrapper (that should be enhanced) for
those operations:
https://sourceforge.net/p/mzmine/code/HEAD/tree/branches/gboaglio-experimental/src/main/java/net/sf/mzmine/util/RSession.java
(Simplified version of the class in attachment).
=> The code for starting Rserve main server instance is located in
"RUtilities.java" for now:
https://sourceforge.net/p/mzmine/code/HEAD/tree/branches/gboaglio-experimental/src/main/java/net/sf/mzmine/util/RUtilities.java
=> USAGE (a sample use case can be found in the
BaselineCorrectionTask.java):
Basically, evaluating one or more R commands is done as follows:
- Create and open a new session:
// (This will automatically start Rserve, if not already
running, and open a new slave instance for this task)
String[] reqPackages = new String[] { "ptw" };
RSession rSession = new RSession(reqPackages);
rSession.open();
- Check the additional packages necessary to perform the commands
for the given session:
// Returns the first failing required package name or null if
successful
String missingPackage = rSession.loadRequiredPackages();
- Do some R evaluations, such as:
// Set chromatogram.
rSession.assignDoubleArray("chromatogram", chromatogram);
// Calculate baseline.
rSession.eval("baseline <- asysm(chromatogram," + smoothing +
"," + asymmetry + ")");
baseline = rSession.collectDoubleArray("baseline");
- Release the session (closes the socket connection for the session
and ends the related Rserve slave process):
rSession.close(false);
Note: We should also check, at some point, if no more tasks are
requiring Rserve, and shutdown the server.
(it will be restarted the next time we use a MZmine feature
requiring R anyway...)
* Performance considerations:
--------------------------
Source:
http://www.sciencedomain.org/download.php?f=Satman4152014BJMCS10902_1.pdf&aid=4838&type=a
The performances where good enough for what I had to do with the
BaselineCorretors. So, at very first sight, this should fit the other needs
(anyway, the other very few multi-threaded alternatives I gave a test where not
exploitable in term of evaluation speed).
May be we should/will have to consider switching between JRIengine and Rserve
for some particular features). I hope not, but in any case,
this is something which seems doable: as far as I tested, there is absolutely
no incompatibilities between Rserve and JRI.
To make your own opinion on all this, the BaselineCorretorModule (again) allows
to choose the R engine among RCaller (Online), JRIengine and Rserve.
Just run the MZmine version linked on top of this email, and go to "Raw data
methods > Filtering > Baseline Correction"
Fill free to ask if something is unclear or if you have any further
questionings.
Looking forward to your constructive comments and thoughts...
I'll be glad to help, as much as possible, with migrating to Rserve (if it
turns out that this solution really is viable).
Cheers
Gauthier

Hi Gauthier,
Now that we released version 2.12, I think it is a good time to consider making
the switch from JRI to RServe.
I think it is a good idea - I don't really like the current JRI interface.
It would be great if you could send a message to the devel list, where you can
summarize what you found about RServe. Especially, we would like to know
1) is the initial setup and configuration going to be easier than the current
one (is it necessary to edit the startMZmine script in order to use RServe?)
2) how does the actual code differ between RServe and JRI?
Thanks a lot!
Cheers,
Tomas
