luajr provides an interface to LuaJIT, a just-in-time compiler for the Lua scripting language. It allows users to run Lua code from R.
One of the advantages of using luajr is that LuaJIT runs Lua code
with very fast compilation times, fast execution times, and no need for
an external toolchain, as the LuaJIT compiler is “built in” to the luajr
package. This contrasts with e.g. Rcpp, which results in compiled code
with very fast execution times but slow compilation times and the need
to invoke an external C++ compiler toolchain like gcc or
clang.
You can install the released version of luajr from CRAN with:
install.packages("luajr")You can install the development version of luajr from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("nicholasdavies/luajr")luajr is under early development. As such, the interface and behaviour of the package is subject to change.
These binaries (installable software) and packages are in development.
They may not be fully stable and should be used with caution. We make no claims about them.
