Using R and Python together in Quarto and Neovim

Today, we learn to utilize the R package reticulate (rstudio.github.io/reticulate/) to combine the power of R and python directly Neovim as well as a quick trick to interactively explore R dataframes.
Config: github.com/jmbuhr/quarto-nvim...
Most important lines for the reticulate keybinding: github.com/jmbuhr/quarto-nvim...
Note: The config used in this video is *not* the slimmed down version from my previous video about adding Quarto to kickstart.nvim. But after this video I am now very tempted to do a bit of spring cleaning on the currently rather large quarto-nvim-kickstarter, to get it as snappy as kickstart.nvim. So stay tuned!

impressive, very nice

Thank you Jannik. Quarto is brilliant!

[@christopherboon1677]

Awesome content Mr. Jannik. I have been following your videos since your kickstart post and I have been loving the Quarto and Nvim combo! I am having some difficulty getting R terminal to call python chunks via reticulate. Could you make an in-depth video about this? Currently, I can :QuartoPreview and have R call python code via reticulate. But using the R repl throws an error with python code. I think I am missing the piece that enters/exits python repl within R term.

These are the functions you'll have to steal from my config to make it work: github.com/jmbuhr/quarto-nvim-kickstarter/blob/37a7b4448382770e8aeca973f4bc9beb8542b3dd/lua/config/keymap.lua#L51 and github.com/jmbuhr/quarto-nvim-kickstarter/blob/37a7b4448382770e8aeca973f4bc9beb8542b3dd/lua/config/keymap.lua#L278-L284

Really enjoyed the video, thanks! How do you get matplotlib plots to open in their own window outside neovim? Seems like a handy trick!

[@jmbuhr]

That's not a trick, it's the default behavior of matplotlib. See matplotlib.org/stable/users/explain/figure/backends.html#the-builtin-backends

[@bassamsaleh8034]

@@jmbuhr thank you, it worked

[@samanderson4231]

How do you move the terminal to the bottom like you did?

[@jmbuhr]

J. See :help for more window controls or wait half a second after for the which-key pop-up to show the options.

[@youtubeaccount1152]

What's your window manager?

[@jmbuhr]

pop-shell on pop-os

Can you teach me python for data science briefly and completely?😢

[@jmbuhr]

I'm afraid briefly and completely are quite the opposites of each other, but jakevdp.github.io/PythonDataScienceHandbook/ is a great starting point.

[@phamcongtoan1399]

@@jmbuhr I already know Java, so I'll make a brief request. I will carefully review this document, thank you very much!

[@phamcongtoan1399]

@@jmbuhr Actually, I need python to learn AI, not data science, but it's still the same, right?

[@jmbuhr]

The book also has a chapter on machine learning, so that should be interesting for you.

Audio is very bad, nothing comes out...

[@jmbuhr]

I'll increase the levels for future videos, until then you can go to your OS audio settings and enable increase above 100%
