Explain to me the installation procedures for RHadoop packages RMR RHDFS RHBase

Question

Am trying to integrate R with Hadoop and am getting the following errors:

packages ‘rmr’, ‘rJava‘, ‘RJSONIO‘, ‘rhdfs’, ‘rhbase’, ‘plyrmr’ are not available (for R version 3.1.3)

These are the steps I have followed:

Installed R, and Hadoop in ubuntu.

Added these three lines in ~/.bashrc file.

export HADOOP_PREFIX=/Users/hadoop/hadoop-1.1.2
export HADOOP_CMD=/Users/hadoop/hadoop-1.1.2/bin/hadoop
export HADOOP_STREAMING=/Users/hadoop/hadoop-1.1.2/contrib/streaming/hadoop-streaming-1.1.2.jar*

Installed R packages by using the following command

install.packages(c("rJava", "RJSONIO", "rmr", "rhdfs", "rhbase", "plyrmr").

After all this, I get the same above error. I had Followed this site for Installation.

Please help me out on this one.

Answer 1

Download packages rhdfs, rhbase, rmr2 and plyrmr from this site and install them as below :

install.packages("<path>/rhdfs_1.0.8.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")
install.packages("<path>/rmr2_2.2.2.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")
install.packages("<path>plyrmr_0.2.0.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")
install.packages("<path>/rhbase_1.2.0.tar.gz", repos=NULL, type="source")

This should help.
