New on CRAN: phpSerialize Version 0.8 Dieter Menne, dieter.menne at menne-biomed.de Serializes R objects for PHP import into an associative array. Main use is for building web pages with R-support. Has mainly been tested with lm,lme, nlme and their summaries. A web example is provide, showing -- How to start R from php/Apache -- How to pass variables from php to R via Environment -- How to create serialized php output from R -- How to read the serialize output from php/Apache via pipe -- How to display individual results in a table -- How to display the structure of the associative array. For example, the following R structure... Delta=as.numeric(Sys.getenv("DELTA")) # Get Info from php wc = wilcox.test(rnorm(10),rnorm(10)+Delta) ... is is piped to standard output cat(phpSerialize(wc),"\n") ... and after deserialization $pp = popen("$Rterm --no-save --slave 2>&1 < $RFile DELTA=$Delta","r"); // Read serialized R output via pipe. $sWilcox=fgets($pp); pclose($pp); $Wilcox=unserialize($sWilcox); print_r($Wilcox); ... prints as follows: Array ( [statistic] => Array ( [W] => 29 ) [parameter] => [p.value] => 0.1230055 [null.value] => Array ( [mu] => 0 ) [alternative] => two.sided [method] => Wilcoxon rank sum test [data.name] => rnorm(10) and rnorm(10) + Delta ) _______________________________________________ R-packages mailing list R-packages at stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-packages
