I ran into this behaviour when accidentally running a line of code that I shouldn't have. When saving over an rds with an object that's not found, I would have expected saveRDS to not touch the file. saveRDS(iris, "test.rds") file.size("test.rds") #> [1] 1080 saveRDS(no_object_here, "test.rds") #> Error in saveRDS(no_object_here, "test.rds"): object 'no_object_here' not found file.size("test.rds") #> [1]...

Hi, all, Recently, I met one issue when using socket between R & C++ to transmit R object. Would you pls help give me some suggestions? Many thanks! [Background]: I create a socket connection between R & C++ binary first, and then, want to use saveRDS() or save() in R to save the object into connection directly. So that the C++ binary can read the object, and send it to another remote R. [What I did so far]: 1. I used socketConnection in R and listen/accept in C++, to establish one blocking socket. 2. I used saveRDS to save the R object into s...

Hi all, Is there any chance that readRDS and saveRDS might one day become read.rds and write.rds? That would make them more consistent with the other reading and writing functions.

The documentation for recordPlot says the following: > As of R 3.3.0, it is possible (again) to replay a plot from another R session using, for example, saveRDS and readRDS. However, I haven't been able to save and restore a plot displaylist and have it work within the same R session, using R 3.4.3 or 3.3.3. Here's an example: # Save displaylist for a simple plot png('test.png') dev.control(displaylist ="enable") plot(1:5, 1:5)...

Hi What you are doing "wrong" is loading a recordedplot into the same session that it was created in. The saveRDS()/readRDS() works if you save in one R session and then read in a different R session. The assumption is that if you are still in the same session that created the recordedplot you still have the recordedplot (e.g., you can just do replayPlot(r) instead of replayPlot(r2). Is that a bad assum...

Dear r-devel, I was surprised to see that saveRDS() and readRDS() work quite well with environments, see below: ``` z <- 3 # in global env y <- new.env() y$a <- 1 x <- new.env(parent = y) x$b <- 2 saveRDS(x, "x.RDS") # in a new session x <- readRDS("x.RDS") y <- parent.env(x) x$b #> [1] 2 y$a #> [1...

...format used in (non-compressed) serialization/RDS, but hoping someone with more knowledge could give me some feedback; Consider two R processes running in parallel on the same unknown file system. Both of them write and read to the same RDS file foo.rds (without compression) at random times using saveRDS(object, file="foo.rds", compress=FALSE) and object2 <- readRDS(file="foo.rds"). This happens frequently enough such that there is a risk for the two processes to write to the same "foo.rds" file at the same time (here one needs to acknowledge that file updates are...

...ile when saving RDS's which is great. However, I noticed the problem again when saving `qs` files (https://github.com/traversc/qs) which is an RDS replacement with a fast serialization / compression system. I'd like to get an idea of what change was made within R to address this issue for `saveRDS`. My thought is that this will help the author of the `qs` package do something similar. I have had a browse through the release notes for the last few years (Ctrl-F-ing "environment") and couldn't see it. Many thanks for any help and best wishes to all. The following code uses R 3...

...k that I render later to a variety of formats. This works fine for base R plots and ggplot2 plots, and also used to work for lattice plots. However somewhere in version 2.14 things stopped working for lattice plots. Here is an example: library(lattice); histogram(rnorm(100)); x <- recordPlot(); saveRDS(x, "myplot.rds"); y <- readRDS("myplot.rds"); print(y); Error: NULL value passed as symbol address printing x works fine, but printing y either gives an error or prints an empty page. The problem seems to be related to serializing the recordedplot object, which contains a l...

In addition to the major points that others made: if you care about speed, don't use compression. With today's fast disks it's an order of magnitude slower to use compression: > d=lapply(1:10, function(x) as.integer(rnorm(1e7))) > system.time(saveRDS(d, file="test.rds.gz")) user system elapsed 17.210 0.148 17.397 > system.time(saveRDS(d, file="test.rds", compress=F)) user system elapsed 0.482 0.355 0.929 The above example is intentionally well compressible, in real life the differences are actually...

...imal class uses about 20K on disk. rm(list=ls(all=TRUE)); MySmallClass = setRefClass("MySmallClass", fields = list( myField = "numeric" ), methods = list( initialize = function(f) { myField <<- f; }) ); o = MySmallClass$new(10); saveRDS(o, file="C:\\o.rds"); file.info("C:\\o.rds")$size; Result: [1] 21274 My questions: Is saveRDS() is representative for memory usage? If so, is there a way to shrink these objects to a smaller size? I use R 2.15.0 on a 32 Bit Windows 7 system. Best regards, Jan

Hi, I am dealing with very large datasets and it takes a long time to save a workspace image. The options to save compressed data are: "gzip", "bzip2" or "xz", the default being gzip. I wonder if it's possible to include the pbzip2 (http://compression.ca/pbzip2/) algorithm as an option when saving. "PBZIP2 is a parallel implementation of the bzip2

Hi all, Given the recent CRAN push to prevent examples writing to the working directory, is there any interest in fixing base R examples that write to the working directory? A few candidates are the graphics devices, file.create(), writeBin(), writeChar(), write(), and saveRDS(). I'm sure there are many more. One way to catch these naughty examples would be to search for unlink() in examples: e.g., https://github.com/wch/r-source/search?utf8=?&q=unlink+extension%3ARd&type=. Of course, simply cleaning up after yourself is not sufficient because if those file...
