Re: [R] R, RStudio, and a server for my iPad.
That you cannot reach your home LAN from the Internet without learning something about networking is a good thing, since that offers some hope that the Russian Mafia can't use your computer to launch criminal activities against the rest of us, either. Studying how to set up a VPN on your network router was a good recommendation that you have not acknowledged. However, that subject is networking, not R, and is definitely off topic here. --- Jeff NewmillerThe . . Go Live... DCN:Basics: ##.#. ##.#. Live Go... Live: OO#.. Dead: OO#..

Re: [R] R, RStudio, and a server for my iPad.
Grand, Thank you. I have been able to use my iPad to connect to a server running RStudio server as described in an earlier email and can use the virtual keyboard, which works but is not convenient as one needs to go from keyboard screen to another. My current problem is that while I can get everything to work when my iPad is on my local network, I don't know how to access my server from outside my LAN. I know my server's private IP address I know my cable modem's external IP address, but I have no idea what IP address to enter in my iPad, when my iPad is outside my LAN trying to access my server.

Running rstudio (server) on an ipad. I do'nt have an ipad anymore, but some years ago I noticed that rstudio (server) worked fine on an ipad of you have a separate keyboard.

Re: [R] R, RStudio, and a server for my iPad.
David, Thank you for your assistance. I have, in fact been able to get things to work, at least when my iPad is on my local network. I had to do the following: (1) install Linux (I used linux Mint) on a computer on my LAN (2) install R on the linux box (accomplished using the Mint package manager) (3) install Rstudio and RStudio server on the linux box (accomplished using the Mint package manager) (4) obtain the linux computer's internal IP address (obtained using ifconfig command entered at a terminal). The internal IP address was 192.168.0.101 (5) use a browser on my iPad (I used google chrome, I believe firefox would also work) to connect to the linux box, requesting a connection using port 8787 In the brower I entered http://192.168.0.101:8787 This works like a charm; I can now control RStudio, which runs on the Linux box, by typing on my iPad. I thus gain access to RStudio on my iPad, RStudio works exactly as if it were running directly on my iPad, hooray! My remaining problem is to determine how I can gain access to the linux box from outside my LAN. I know the IP address of my cable router xx.xx.xx.xx (forgive me I am not listing my external IP address for security reasons), but I don't know how I can address the linux box from outside my LAN. Clearly I can't use 192.168.0.101 as it is an internal IP address, and I can't use the external IP address, xx.xx.xx.xx as it is the address of my cable box, not the address of the Linux box behind the cable modem. If I can figure how to address the linux box from outside my LAN my problem will be solved! If anyone can help me with this last problem I would be grateful. I know it is not strictly an R question, but in my case it is related to running R, at least on my iPad.

I fear that the response so far has been focussing on RStudio when the desire
at its minimum was to run interactive R session on an iPad. Why not use an SSH
client to connect to a machine that recognizes the security keys?
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/server-auditor-ssh-client/id549039908?mt=8
I think RServe could be the server end, but I do not know how graphics devices
would be handled. Maybe just create pdfs on the server? Is there a sendfile
function that an SSH client could receive and allow the iPad user to open? I
think the stats-rosuda-devel mailing list might be the place to find
experienced users of such techniques.

Re: [R] R, RStudio, and a server for my iPad.
Hadley, Thank you for the clarification! This is too bad as I had thought that given that RStudio server followed a web-based rather than a client-server paradigm that I could use my iPad to access an RStudio server and thus have access to R.

Re: [R] R, RStudio, and a server for my iPad.
You can not type _anything_ into Rstudio if you connect to it on the
ipad. In other words, Rstudio is not currently usable on the ipad.

Re: [R] R, RStudio, and a server for my iPad.
Steve, Are you suggesting that all I need to is build a Linux box (easily done, I have done many) and them simply use the package manager to install RStudio server?

Re: [R] R, RStudio, and a server for my iPad.
Even if you do get Rstudio running on a server, unfortunately it won't
help. The ipad doesn't support quite enough html to get a fully
functional Rstudio interface - almost everything works but you can't
type anything :/ It would be possible to fix this, but fundamentally
we don't believe that the Rstudio interface is the right choice for an
ipad.

Re: [R] R, RStudio, and a server for my iPad.
Steve, Thank you for your help. I have seen the material you have sent me to, but do not fully understand it. Do I have to build a linux server first? If so does it have to run Apache or some other web server? Is RStudio server run under Apache, if so how? On the other hand, do I simply need a box running a flavor of Linux (without Apache)., and then simply download RStudio server? Perhaps I am over thinking this . . .

You might try to follow the instructions to get RStudio Server running: https://www.rstudio.com/ide/docs/server/getting_started It seems like they have packages built for many popular linux distros: https://www.rstudio.com/ide/download/server Once your linux server is set up, you should be able to access the server with any client via a web browser, although I have no idea if any of the iOS browsers are up to the task of dealing with the RStudio web interface, but you can try and find out. RStudio's support forum is more likely to be helpful here, for instance: https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/search?utf8=✓&query=ios&commit=Search HTH, -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Computational Biologist Genentech __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
