SendCode cannot send codes to RStudio when upgrading RStudio to version 2022.12.0

[LiangCZhang]

HI, I am using sublime text 4126 on Windows 10. Sendcode was working fine and can send R codes to RStudio via ctrl+enter. However, when RStudio is upgraded to version 2022.12.0 Build 353, SendCode is not working anymore. Could you have a look at this? Thanks.

I can confirm this behaviour on Windows 11.

This is the python script that controls Rstudio https://github.com/randy3k/SendCode/blob/master/code_sender/winauto.py

If someone wants to help, please follow the below steps and report what you see.

• open python/ipython
• run the file https://github.com/randy3k/SendCode/blob/master/code_sender/winauto.py
• run

rid =  find_rstudio()
paste_to_rstudio(rid, from_view=False)  # this command should paste the current clipboard to Rstudio.

Hi! On macOS 13.0.1 (22A400) now. RStudio 2022.12.0 Build 353. When in an R script, the first cmd+Enter launches RStudio, but no line will be sent afterwards.

It is the first time I have set up SendCode on Ventura. Thus I don't know if it is the new RStudio to blame or if I'm missing some step. Anyone can send an R code to Sublime working with macOS Venture?

I will try on my Windows 11 boxes early tomorrow (my time). I will also try on Ubuntu 20.04.

I'm also having issues on OS X (I'm still on 10.15.7) with Rstudio (2022.12.0+353) when trying to use SendCode. This is the error message in the SublimeText console:

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['osascript', '/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text 3/Packages/SendCode/code_sender/rstudio/rstudio.applescript', 'library(tidyverse)\nlibrary(lubridate)\nlibrary(arsenal)\nlibrary(zscorer)']' returned non-zero exit status 1

In ScriptEditor, running tell application "RStudio" to cmd "print('hello')" returns an error: A """ can't go after this identifier". Is it possible that RStudio 2022.12.0+353 doesn't support applescript (or at least the syntax used in the sendcode rstudio.applescript)?

@rrodrigueznt on OS X rolling back to RStudio 2022.72+576 solved the issue for me and I can send code to RStudio from sublime text. I've raised an issue in the Rstudio repo

[randy3k]

RStudio has moved to electron rstudio/rstudio/wiki/Electron-Desktop.

On Mac, we use apple script to send code to RStudio and unfortunately electron doesn't support apple script. On Windows, we use native Win32 api, I beleive we just need to figure out the new window class name.

Ah, thanks! That explains it. Does that mean for the foreseeable future there’s no way of using sublime text with SendCode on Mac to send R code to electron-based versions of RStudio? On 4 Jan 2023, 2:04 PM +1100, Randy Lai @.***>, wrote:

how do you search for windows class name? i tried winlister, got "Chrome_WidgetWin_1", modified SUBLIME_PATH\Data\Packages\SendCode\code_sender\winauto.py but it doesn't work

[emilBeBri]

damn. A huge part of my workflow has just been destroyed. Guess it's time to move to neovim completely.

[fabeit]

Reporting the same issue. I don't like the Rstudio editor, I hope someone will help fix this. Any alternative to Sendcode?

[Sijianf]

In the future, will there be updates for SendCode to make it support the latest RStudio? Thanks! I am using a Macbook, and I have rolled back to the older version of RStudio. However, the plot function was disabled since R has updated its graphic engine. SendCode would stop sending codes once I called a plot() function.
