[![CRAN_Status_Badge](http://www.r-pkg.org/badges/version/opencpu)](http://cran.r-project.org/package=opencpu)

[![CRAN RStudio mirror downloads](http://cranlogs.r-pkg.org/badges/opencpu)](http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/opencpu/index.html)

A system for embedded scientific computing and reproducible research with R.

The OpenCPU server exposes a simple but powerful HTTP api for RPC and data interchange

with R. This provides a reliable and scalable foundation for statistical services or 

building R web applications. The OpenCPU server runs either as a single-user development

server within the interactive R session, or as a multi-user Linux stack based on Apache2. 

The entire system is fully open source and permissively licensed. The OpenCPU website

has detailed documentation and example apps.

## Cloud Server

To install the cloud server on Ubuntu Server:

```sh

#requires Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy) or 20.04 (Focal)

sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:opencpu/opencpu-2.2

sudo apt-get update 

sudo apt-get upgrade

#install opencpu server

sudo apt-get install -y opencpu-server

#optional

sudo apt-get install -y rstudio-server 

```

See the opencpu [website](https://www.opencpu.org/download.html) for details how to install on other platforms.

## Local Development server

To start the single-user development server in R:

```r

library(opencpu)

ocpu_start_server()

```

Or to start an App:

```r

ocpu_start_app("rwebapps/stockapp")

```
