BATCH {base}

R Documentation

Batch Execution of R

Description

Run R non-interactively with input from infile and optionally send output (stdout/stderr) to another file.

Usage

Rcmd BATCH [options] infile [outfile]

Arguments

infile	the name of a file with R code to be executed.
options	a list of R command line options, e.g., for setting the amount of memory available and controlling the load/save process. If infile starts with a ‘-’, use -- as the final option. The default options are --restore --save.
outfile	the name of a file to which to write output. If not given, the name used is the one of infile, with a possible ‘.R’ extension stripped, and ‘.Rout’ appended.

Details

Windows Perl needs to be installed.

By default, the input commands are printed along with the output. To suppress this behavior, add options(echo = FALSE) at the beginning of infile.

Files with an incomplete last line (no end of line mark) are now accepted.
