In clauswilke/helloextendr: Minimal Example of Calling Rust from R

Minimal Example of Calling Rust from R

This is a template package to demonstrate how to call Rust from R using the extendr-api crate.

Installation

Before you can install this package, you need to install a working Rust toolchain. We recommend using rustup.

On Windows, you'll also have to add the i686-pc-windows-gnu and x86_64-pc-windows-gnu targets:

rustup target add x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
rustup target add i686-pc-windows-gnu

Once Rust is working, you can install this package via:

remotes::install_github("extendr/helloextendr")

After installation, the following should work:

library(helloextendr)

hello()
#> [1] "hello"
