Overview

About

Maintained by Liming LiFirst published 2023-05-244 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides a 'SAS' interface, through 'SASPy'(https://sassoftware.github.io/saspy/) and 'reticulate'(https://rstudio.github.io/reticulate/). This package helps you create 'SAS' sessions, execute 'SAS' code in remote 'SAS' servers, retrieve execution results and log, and exchange datasets between 'SAS' and 'R'. It also helps you to install 'SASPy' and create a configuration file for the connection. Please review the 'SASPy' license file as instructed so that you comply with its separate and independent license.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-sasr

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-sasr

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-sasr

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
