Rio ggplot2 not giving expected results

[mpettis]

Working from book, on reproducing Fig 7-4 in the book, I run this from the ch07 directory:

$ <data/tips.csv Rio -ge 'g+geom_bar(aes(factor(size)))'
ARGUMENT '',~+~file='/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-zQ6olMgv.png')}else~+~if(exists('is.ggplot')&&is.ggplot(last)){ggsave('/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-zQ6olMgv.png',last,dpi=72,units='cm',width=20,height=15);}else{sink('/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-zQ6olMgv.png');print(last);}' __ignored__

I would expect that binary would stream to stdout that I could pipe to display or a .png file, but I get only this. Also, If I run the following, I get the results below:

$ <data/tips.csv Rio -e 'head(df)'
ARGUMENT '',~+~file='/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-xGYRL7dR.png')}else~+~if(exists('is.ggplot')&&is.ggplot(last)){ggsave('/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-xGYRL7dR.png',last,dpi=72,units='cm',width=20,height=15);}else{sink('/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-xGYRL7dR.png');print(last);}' __ignored__

What I'm not expecting is the line starting with ARGUMENT .... Could not figure out what is wrong. Any ideas?

Thanks. Two questions:

• Are you running this inside the Data Science Toolbox?
• What's the output when you also specify the -v option (for verbose)?

[mpettis]

The VM? no, not yet. But I do want to make these tools work on my laptop for my own purposes.

Second, here is the -v output:

$ <data/tips.csv Rio -vge 'g+geom_bar(aes(factor(size)))'
ARGUMENT '',~+~file='/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-lsJSNNvK.png')}else~+~if(exists('is.ggplot')&&is.ggplot(last)){ggsave('/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-lsJSNNvK.png',last,dpi=72,units='cm',width=20,height=15);}else{sink('/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/Rio-lsJSNNvK.png');print(last);}' __ignored__

And that is the location of my $TMPDIR:

$ echo $TMPDIR
/var/folders/4s/gd5gw2bd2n16njbfqsg0j5yc0000gn/T/

So I'm not sure what the file or directory that is missing is.

[jeroenjanssens]

Understandable, but I haven't tested these tools on anything other than GNU/Linux. Are you on Mac OS X by any chance?

[mpettis]

Yes I am, I should have stated that. I'll try and root out a solution as
well.

[mpettis]

So, I created this pull request that solved my problem on Mac, I think it should be compatible with Linux as well, but will leave for you now to see if it works in your stack. Also solved second problem in that pull, which I think you probably had in Linux as well, where you created some extra files with the mktemp call inadvertently, and they probably were not getting cleaned up.

Original pull request #17 had error, I closed that, opened new one below.

FIxed pull request: #18

[jeroenjanssens]

Fixed now.

Thank you!
