Suggested feature: antsSaveAll about antsr HOT 14 CLOSED

That's a good idea. Shouldn't be too hard to do. I almost never save my
workspace, but this would be helpful to have around. I'll try to get to
this tomorrow.

It would be extremely useful to have a function that can save the entire
workspace in a single line. Right now is very difficult to keep track of
what is a pointer and what is not, then save them separately, then write
code again to load them on new session. A save-all function can take this
burden away, create cleaner code with one-line saving, and offer to restart
at different levels of a script.

There are multiple benefits:

1. You can restart at any point you left with days in between.
2. You can save in one window, and load another window to proceed with a different parameter (no need to run all the code until that point).
3. You can avoid having hours lost by unexpected events (blackouts, connection problems).
4. Will make the software more usable.

Last night there were multiple network interruptions, so Rstudio died. I spent 2 hours this morning just to reach the same state I had when I started the analysis last night.

Just as a practical matter--do you mount the cluster drive? Mounting the
cluster and then running R/Rstudio on your local machine is much less
sensitive to network blips than running R on the cluster.

Hmmm, I only mount it as external drive. You mean I might be able to point my Windows Rstudio to the cluster R in linux and make it work? That would be great. Let me know if you do that.

from antsr.

Hmm...no, that would probably be worse. I'm a bit surprised then that
Rstudio died when the cluster connection failed. I guess it tried to read
or write and couldn't and then hung?

Yes, off topic, but the way I use it is by calling Rstudio from cluster in an X-server. If the connection to the cluster breaks, Rstudio can't push the display, so it dies. There is an rstudio-server supposed to be better, I am waiting for Michael to install it. Nevertheless, a save function for antsR will be necessary sooner or later.

from antsr.

Ah, OK. So what I was suggesting was to run RStudio on your local machine,
and then just point it to the (mounted) cluster drive to read whenever it
has to load data. That way if the connection gets lost, Rstudio will be
fine and if need be you can save your work locally to continue later.

Problem is there is no antsR in Windows, haven't figured out a way to install it.

Just pushed save.ANTsR and load.ANTsR, which should solve this problem. It works for my test cases, but if you could make sure it works for you that would be helpful. Ended up being a little trickier than I thought it would be.

Shoot. Sorry about that. Should be fixed now.

i think you need something like this:

Ah, that's a good idea. Should've realized that would be considered
"anti-social" by CRAN.
