Shiny Server is a server program that makes Shiny applications available over the web. This repository forks the opensource version and make proper modifications in other to get a working shiny server on openshift. Also a Dockerfile, based on openshift's redhat, is provided as an vm alternative.
- Original Project readme can be found here
- This fork intents the working point fo set and use the shiny server as a Openshift Online App
- The openshift gears don't have X11 available so standard R aren't usable.
This means that:
- Basic examples generate plot using X11 and/or cairo so they don't work.
- Just use the cool web plot plugins that are free and available in R or as CDN.
- You must install R. In this repo we used the openshift quickstart found here. In this repository we provide the minimal script to get R working.
for a quickstart just type:
rhc app create rshinyapps nodejs-0.10
cd rshinyapps
git rm -r *
git commit -a -m"cleaning folder"
git remote add upstream -m master https://github.com/ekergy/shiny-ekergy.git
git pull -s recursive -X theirs upstream master
git push
