rLambdaInitialize: rLambdaInitialize

In sampoll/rLambda:

Description

Initialize the interface to the Python engine and verify that required packages are installed.

Usage

rLambdaInitialize(path)

Arguments

path	The path to the Python executable to be used.

Details

By default the R package reticulate will check the system and use the first Python engine it finds. This is often not the one the user wants. A specific Python executable can be set by passing the path.

The interface to AWS is provided by the Python package boto3 and the request and response are sent via JSON. The Python packages boto3 and json must be installed and available to the requested Python executable.

Examples

rLambdaInitialize(path='/anaconda3/bin/python')
