Introduction

ModelOp Center provides plugins into common data science development tools such as RStudio, to allow data scientists to interact with ModelOp Center from their preferred development environment.

Using ModelOp Center RStudio Plugin v2.1

RStudio (https://rstudio.com/) is a popular tool among data scientists and other users of R for building models. It includes a console, syntax-highlighting editor that supports direct code execution, as well as tools for plotting, history, debugging and workspace management. It comes in two formats: RStudio Desktop and RStudio Server. For the purposes of the interaction between ModelOp Center and RStudio we have the RStudio addin available which makes it easier to make some of the most useful operations directly in the user’s IDE of choice, in this case, RStudio notebook.

Installation and configuration instructions

ModelOp specific functions available within RStudio

RStudio provides an interface for the Addins that come with a package, they will be available in the “Addins” button in the IDE’s toolbar. Once installed, the RStudio interface is provided with the Addins section included in the “MODELOP” package with a set of operations that interact with ModelOp Center and will be expanded in the subsequent sections below.

Open

RStudio supported documents

In order for ModelOp Addin to function properly, the user is required to create or open an R Markdown (or R Notebook) document and work the model in such file.

Open

RStudio supports the use of R Markdown documents as an authoring framework for data science. They allow users to save and execute code as well as generate a high quality diverse output formats by mixing text document with code chunks. For more about R Markdown documents see here.

ModelOp Addins work with an active R Markdown document by writing chunks into it or inspecting its chunks searching for associated ModelOp Center models. R Markdown chunks are fragments of source code delimited by lines with ```{r} and ``` embedded in an R Markdown document. Find out more about R Markdown chunks here.

Registering a new model not supported

For the moment it is not possible to register a new model using the RStudio Addin. Please refer to the ModelOp alternatives to import a model into ModelOp Center
