| BATCH {utils} | R Documentation |
Run R non-interactively with input from infile and
send output (stdout/stderr) to another file.
R CMD BATCH [options] infile [outfile]
infile |
the name of a file with R code to be executed. |
options |
a list of R command line options, e.g., for setting the
amount of memory available and controlling the load/save process.
If infile starts with a -, use -- as the final
option. The default options are --restore --save. |
outfile |
the name of a file to which to write output. If not
given, the name used is that of infile, with a possible
‘.R’ extension stripped, and ‘.Rout’ appended. |
Use R CMD BATCH --help to be reminded of the usage.
By default, the input commands are printed along with the output. To
suppress this behavior, add options(echo = FALSE) at the
beginning of infile.
Files with an incomplete last line (no end of line mark) are now accepted.
Additional options can be set by the environment variable
R_BATCH_OPTIONS: these come after --restore --save
and before any options given on the command line.
