AnyLogic simulation how to call R script

Question

I need to call a R script from AnyLogic. I have an agent 'sensor' and it is going to send a random file from a specific location to a R script and then the R script will analyze that file and will let us know type of that file (image, sound, text etc)

Please let me know how to call a R script from AnyLogic..

Answer 1

i'm not sure there is an direct adapter for AnyLogic and R,but all agents in AnyLogic are Java objects so you can call external java (.jar) programs. JRI is a Java/R interface http://rforge.net/JRI/ you can write your R script within JRI then call from AnyLogic

Answer 2

Rcaller is another route. Pretty simple and still active development: https://code.google.com/p/rcaller/
