R Tools

Datasheet internal name: core_RConfig

SyncroSim supports the development of packages in R. Running R-based SyncroSim packages requires configuring which installation of R to run. By default, R is run in the background within SyncroSim, but may also be run using an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) of choice (e.g., RStudio).

The R Tools system datasheet contains the following fields and options:

Display Name	Internal Name	Optional	Data Type	Default
Run directly	RunInWindow	No	Boolean	True
R executable	ExePath	No	String	C:\Program Files\R
Run using IDE	UseRStudio	No	Boolean	True
IDE executable	ExePathRStudio	No	String	C:\Program Files\RStudio\bin\rstudio.exe

Run directly

Determines whether to run the R script associated with the SyncroSim package in the background within SyncroSim.

R executable

Sets the path to the R executable. SyncroSim will detect which version of R is installed and add it to the R executable path (e.g., if R version 4.4.2 is installed, the full default path to the R executable will be C:\Program Files\R\R-4.4.2\bin\Rscript.exe)

Run using IDE

Determines whether to open the R script associated with the SyncroSim Package in an IDE of choice.

IDE executable

Sets the path to IDE executable for R.
