The BrowserViz package - currently timing out on malbec1 and nebbiolo1, supports json messaging over websockets between R and most web browsers.
The unit tests for BrowserViz only run if a web browser is available. In recent years, a (presumably headless) web browser was offered on the Linux build machines. Depending on that, and for a few years, the following conditional execution has worked. But maybe no longer? webBrowserAvailableForTesting <- function() { authorsDevelopmentMachine <- grepl("hagfish", Sys.info()["nodename"]) bioconductorBuildSystem.linux <- with(as.list(Sys.info()), sysname == "Linux") interactiveUse <- interactive() return(authorsDevelopmentMachine || bioconductorBuildSystem.linux || interactiveUse) } Any suggestions?
