A relational concurrent data mining language. More info, documentation and binaries for some platforms: http://www.rseventeen.com/
- A UNIX-like system such as Linux, BSD or OS X.
- g++ 4.4.x or later because r17 uses some C++0x features. I have only attempted to compile r17 with g++.
- zlib (preferably 1.2.4 or later), libcurl, libpcre.
./configure && make
The output is one executable file: r17. Move it to somewhere in your path and enjoy.
This is particularly useful for compilation & distribution on platforms which might not have all the dependencies by default, or that have a pre-1.2.4 version of zlib. R17 works with earlier versions of zlib but decompression performance is significantly better with 1.2.4 and later.
zlib:
- Download the zlib source, untar and cd into the resulting directory.
- ./configure --static
- make
libcurl:
- Download the the curl source, untar and cd into the resulting directory.
- ./configure --disable-shared --enable-static --disable-ares --disable-ldap
--disable-crypto-auth --disable-tls-srp --without-ssl
--with-zlib=
[zlib source dir]--without-gnutls --without-polarssl --without-nss --without-axtls --without-ca-bundle --without-ca-path --without-libssh2 --without-librtmp --without-libidn - make
PCRE:
- Download the PCRE source, untar and cd into the resulting directory.
- ./configure --disable-shared --enable-static --disable-cpp --enable-utf8
- make
Then:
- cd back into the r17 directory.
- ./configure --with-zlib=
[zlib source dir]--with-libcurl=[libcurl source dir]--with-libpcre=[libpcre source dir] - make
As for the default configuration, the only output is the r17 executable.
If you want to run all the r17 unit tests, you need:
- automatic SSH access to the local machine beacuse some of the tests try to SSH to localhost as the current user.
- Python.
- R.
These prerequisites are not required to run r17 normally unless you want to use SSH features or inline Python or inline R.
make check
The tests are known to pass on Debian, Ubuntu and CentOS. They probably pass on MacOS and FreeBSD but they haven't been tested for a while. Please report test failures using the email address in the failure report, or by using the details at http://www.rseventeen.com/contact/.
