[Qgis-user] [QGIS-Developer] QGIS Processing "R" Provider -- 3.x beta available

[Tim Sutton]

Hi

Tested here on macOS QGIS 3.4.1 (Williams build) here:

I installed R.app into /Applications

I unpacked the plugin and in settings for processing providers set my R folder like this:

/usr/local/bin/

To test I ran the R-> test processing module but couldn’t actually figure out how to provide it the inputs it needs to run. Can someone share a ‘hello’ world R processing module that I can use to test more completely?

It might be good to add my notes about paths above  to your README for the plugin because I first tried to use the R executable in /Applications/R.app/Contents/MacOS but that one won’t work.


Regards

Tim
