Configure Ubuntu
install ubuntugis on Ubuntu
To install the dependencies on Ubuntu, either add ubuntugis-unstable to the package repositories:
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common python-software-properties
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libudunits2-dev libgdal-dev libgeos-dev libproj-dev
or install dependencies from source; see e.g. an older travis config file for hints.
install libxml2-dev and libcurl4-openssl-dev
Before install R package RCurl and XML, first we need to install libxml2-dev and libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
install FreeType
Error: freetype-config not found. Please install FreeType with freetype-config script. If you have not installed FreeType, you can download the source code from http://freetype.org/
In Debian/Ubuntu-like systems, you can use
sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev
to install FreeType
For rpm-based systems, try “sudo yum install freetype-devel”
Install Latest R
Install R on Ubuntu 16.04
- Add R repository
First, we’ve got to add a line to our /etc/apt/sources.list file. This can be accomplished with the following. Note the “xenial” in the line, indicating Ubuntu 16.04. If you have a different version, just change that.
sudo echo "deb http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/linux/ubuntu xenial/" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
- Add R to Ubuntu Keyring
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-key E084DAB9
gpg -a --export E084DAB9 | sudo apt-key add -
- Install R-Base
Most Linux users should be familiar with the old…
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install r-base r-base-dev
install R packages
Run the following code, need ~ 10 min to install all these packages.
options("repos" = c(CRAN = "http://cran.rstudio.com/"))
install.packages(c("data.table", "knitr", "RCurl", "XML", "ggmap", "raster", "openair", "rasterVis", "viridisLite", "sf", "geomnet", "ggrepel", "showtext", "geosphere", "kableExtra", "ggsn", "tidyverse"))
Update packages
# list all packages where an update is available
old.packages()
# update all available packages
update.packages()
# update, without prompts for permission/clarification
update.packages(ask = FALSE, dependencies = c('Suggests'))
Nice sollution as follows:
all.packages <- installed.packages()
r.version <- paste(version[['major']], '.', version[['minor']], sep = '')
for (i in 1:nrow(all.packages))
{
package.name <- all.packages[i, 1]
package.version <- all.packages[i, 3]
if (package.version != r.version)
{
print(paste('Installing', package.name))
install.packages(package.name)
}
}
Configure R with Chinese Env.

Creating RStudio User
It is not advisable to use the root account with RStudio, instead, create a normal user account just for RStudio. The account can be named anything, and the account password will be the one to use in the web interface.
sudo adduser rstudio
RStudio will use the user’s home directory as it’s default workspace.
Using R Studio Server
By default RStudio Server runs on port 8787 and accepts connections from all remote clients. After installation you should therefore be able to navigate a web browser to the following address to access the server:
For example
http://<server-ip>:8787
http://172.104.104.180:8787/auth-sign-in
