Skills Sharing: Batch files to graph with R

Why should I use a batch file?

  • Any R script can be run without opening R
  • Can output figures
  • Can be automated to run daily

Challenges:

  • Batch files run natively on Windows OS


Example on Windows 7: Two files are needed

  1. The R script (ex. helloworld.R)
  2. The batch file should be saved as "NAME.bat". It will be a text file that contains the following code (substitute path directories where necessary).

"C:\Program Files\R\R-2.15.2\bin\x64\R.exe" CMD BATCH "D:\user\...\helloworld.r" "D:\...\helloworld.out”
