This file contains instructions for how to install R and jupyter on your computer. Instructions are provided for Windows 10 and MacOS. If you do not have access to a Windows 10 or MacOS computer, contact the course instructors.

Mac

1. install python3 and jupyter using anaconda

2. install R

3. install xcode-select

  • open a terminal and run xcode-select --install

4. configure R kernel

  • launch R
  • execute these commands
jupyterPath <- "/anaconda3/bin"
jupyterPath2 <- paste(Sys.getenv("HOME"),"/anaconda3/bin",sep="")
Sys.setenv(PATH = paste(Sys.getenv("PATH"),jupyterPath,jupyterPath2,sep=":"))
install.packages(c('repr', 'IRdisplay', 'evaluate', 'crayon', 'pbdZMQ', 'devtools', 'uuid', 'digest'))
devtools::install_github('IRkernel/IRkernel')
IRkernel::installspec()

5. start jupyter

  • launch terminal
  • From the bash prompt, execute jupyter notebook. You should see output like this:

  • jupyter should have automatically started in a browser. You should see something like this: Jupyter root view

  • confirm the R kernel is successfully installed. If you see the option for R as in the screenshot below, you are done!

Windows Subsystem for Linux

REMINDER: You must have Windows 10 to be able to use the instructions below. If you do not have access to a Windows 10 or MacOS computer, contact the course instructors.

1. install linux

2. install cmder

  • download 'mini' version from http://cmder.net/
  • uncompress and copy folder to C:\Program Files\
  • add C:\Program Files\cmder_mini to your Path environment variable (instructions)

3. install juypter

  • launch cmder
    • you may have to log in/out for cmder to be accessible via your start menu, or just click the cmder file in windows explorer
  • open a bash window
    • within cmder, press control-T. From the "startup command" menu, choose {WSL::bash} or {bash::ubuntu}
    • click the Start button
  • run the following commands
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install python3 python3-pip ipython3
pip3 install jupyter

4. install R in linux subsystem

  • determine your version of ubuntu by executing lsb_release -a in a terminal/cmder window
  • for ubuntu 16.04, execute these commands:
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu xenial-cran35/'
curl -sL "http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xE298A3A825C0D65DFD57CBB651716619E084DAB9" | sudo apt-key add
sudo apt update
sudo apt install r-base
  • for ubuntu 18.04, execute these commands:
sudo add-apt-repository 'deb https://cloud.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu bionic-cran35/'
curl -sL "http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xE298A3A825C0D65DFD57CBB651716619E084DAB9" | sudo apt-key add
sudo apt update
sudo apt install r-base

5. install httr and git2r dependencies

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev

6. configure R kernel for jupyter

  • launch R by typing R at the terminal prompt
  • execute these commands:
install.packages(c('repr','IRdisplay', 'evaluate', 'crayon', 'pbdZMQ', 'devtools', 'uuid', 'digest'))
devtools::install_github('IRkernel/IRkernel')
IRkernel::installspec()

7. start jupyter

  • From a bash prompt, execute jupyter notebook. You should see output like this:
[I 09:26:38.967 NotebookApp] Serving notebooks from local directory: /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages
[I 09:26:38.967 NotebookApp] 0 active kernels
[I 09:26:38.967 NotebookApp] The Jupyter Notebook is running at:
[I 09:26:38.968 NotebookApp] http://localhost:8888/?token=4f0ec8297e0be4f8789fdcf422196717a3d9221e76e1a933
[I 09:26:38.968 NotebookApp] Use Control-C to stop this server and shut down all kernels (twice to skip confirmation).
[W 09:26:38.972 NotebookApp] No web browser found: could not locate runnable browser.
[C 09:26:38.972 NotebookApp]

    Copy/paste this URL into your browser when you connect for the first time,
    to login with a token:
        http://localhost:8888/?token=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  • launch jupyter by copying the URL shown in your terminal window into a browser. You should see something like this: Jupyter root view

  • confirm the R kernel is successfully installed. If you see the option for R as in the screenshot below, you are done!
