[Rd] Question: Publishing R/S objects with WebServices (SOAP/WSDL)
Hello, Can anyone tell me if there is a package which will allow me to write a package in R, then publish the package using WebServices? The idea is that I want to be able to pass a data set into R, have R perform the calculations, then send the result back to either a .Net application or a LIMS BASIC application. So far I see many packages that allow R to consume WebServices, but I haven't seen anything that allows you to publish a package as a WebService. One company advertised a product for WebServices, but they are not using the term in an industry standardized way - they are using it to mean, I can publish my R results on the web and access them from the web. This is NOT what we are looking for. We want to use true Web Services using SOAP and WSDL. Any help would be much appreciated. -- Kurt Schallitz Sr. Software Developer [LIMS] FPPQI Genentech (650)-467-7304 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] __ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel

You probably want to look into Jeroen's very capable OpenCPU project: https://www.opencpu.org/ which does all that, and more, out of the box. Just doing SOAP etc is a pretty old idea some folks played with a decade+ ago, and Duncan Temple-Lang had some packages in that area too.

Hi Kurt, The R Service Bus was made to do this. http://rsb.doc.openanalytics.eu/dev/ http://rsb.doc.openanalytics.eu/dev/wsdocs/index.html Running in production at multiple big pharma companies since 2010. Open source and freely available.

So far I see many packages that allow R to consume WebServices, but I haven't seen anything that allows you to publish a package as a WebService. If you haven't already, look at the RWebServices package from Bioconductor. __ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
