I'm trying to write a simple double-clickable file.command on my Mac OSX machine. Here is my shell script on the .command file:
#!/usr/bin/env Rscript
Rscript /Users/MyName/Dropbox/Workout_log_script/workout_log.R
And here is the error I get:
MyName$ /Users/MyName/Desktop/workout_plotter.command ; exit;
Error: object 'Rscript' not found
Execution halted
logout
I don't have much experience with using bash. Does anyone know how I can fix this? Thanks!
You are mixing two possible ways to do it:
either write a Bash script that launches the Rscript utility:
#!/bin/bash
Rscript /Users/MyName/Dropbox/Workout_log_script/workout_log.R
making sure Rscript is available from the $PATH and the Bash script is executable ; or
make the R script executable and add the so-called shebang
#!/usr/bin/env Rscript
at the first line of the R script. The R script will then be runnable by double clicking it.
your interpreter string is not ok for bash use /usr/bin/Rscript
and make your script executable whit chmod 755 <script>
