Hide RData download file option if R is not configured in Dataverse

Open GPortas opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Overview of the Feature Request

The download option in R format should not be rendered if R is not configured in Dataverse.

Tabular files work well for both original and archival formats. But when selecting RData the following error appears:

{"status":"ERROR","code":404,"message":"datafile access error: requested optional service (image scaling, format conversion, etc.) could not be performed on this datafile."}

This issue depends on backend changes to allow the SPA to know if R is configured in the Dataverse instance. There is already an issue created in the backend repository: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/8711

This issue will potentially be divided into 2 spike issues for the frontend work: A UI issue and an integration issue.
