rJavaEnv: Java Environments for R Projects

Quickly install Java Development Kit (JDK) without administrative privileges and set environment variables in current R session or project to solve common issues with ‘Java’ environment management in ‘R’. Recommended to users of Java/{rJava}-dependent R packages such as {r5r}, {opentripplanner}, {xlsx}, {openNLP}, {rWeka}, {RJDBC}, {tabulapdf}, and many more. {rJavaEnv} prevents common problems like Java not found, Java version conflicts, missing Java installations, and the inability to install Java due to lack of administrative privileges. {rJavaEnv} automates the download, installation, and setup of the Java on a per-project basis by setting the relevant JAVA_HOME in the current R session or the current working directory (via .Rprofile, with the user’s consent). Similar to what {renv} does for R packages, {rJavaEnv} allows different Java versions to be used across different projects, but can also be configured to allow multiple versions within the same project (e.g. with the help of {targets} package). Note: there are a few extra steps for ‘Linux’ users, who don’t have any ‘Java’ previously installed in their system, and who prefer package installation from source, rather then installing binaries from ‘Posit Package Manager’. See documentation for details.

Install from CRAN:

install.packages('rJavaEnv')

Install the latest release development version from R-multiverse:

install.packages('rJavaEnv',
 repos = c('https://community.r-multiverse.org', 'https://cloud.r-project.org')
)

You can also install the development version of rJavaEnv directly from GitHub:

if (!requireNamespace("remotes", quietly = TRUE)) {
  install.packages("remotes")
}

remotes::install_github("e-kotov/rJavaEnv", force = TRUE)

rJavaEnv::java_quick_install(version = 21)

This will:

• download Java 21 distribution compatible with the current operating system and processor architecture into a local cache folder;

• extract the downloaded Java distribution into another cache folder;

• create a symbolic link (for macOS and Linux) or junction (for Windows, if that fails, just copies the files) rjavaenv/platform/processor_architecture/java_version in the current directory/project to point to the cached installation;

• set the current session’s JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables to point to the installed (symlinked) Java distribution;

• add code to .Rprofile file in the current directory/project to set JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables when the project is opened in RStudio.

As part of normal operation, rJavaEnv will update the JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables in the current R session, the local cache in your R package library, and the .Rprofile file in the project/current working directory. In line with CRAN policies, explicit user consent is required before making these changes. Therefore, the first time you run any function from rJavaEnv that makes such changes, you will be asked for consent. To explicitly consent and/or to prevent interruptions in non-interactive mode, you can use the rje_consent() function:

rje_consent(provided = TRUE)

Just insert this line into the begining of any script that you run with targets or callr:

This acts exactly like java_quick_install(), but only sets the environment variables in the current session and does not copy or link Java binaries into the project directory.

More details are in the vignette Multiple Java environments in one project with targets and callr.

If you do not want to use rJavaEnv anymore, please clear the cache folders before removing the package:

java_clear("project", delete_all = TRUE)
java_clear("installed", delete_all = TRUE)
java_clear("distrib", delete_all = TRUE)

Also, clear the .Rprofile file in the projects there you used the package:

The package has several core functions:

1. java_quick_install()
   • Downloads, installs, and sets Java environment in the current working/project directory, all in one line of code.
2. java_check_version_cmd()
   • Checks the installed Java version using terminal commands. For packages like opentripplanner, that performs Java calls using command line.
3. java_version_check_rjava()
   • Checks the installed Java version using rJava in a separate R session. For rJava-dependent packages such as r5r.
4. java_download()
   • Downloads a specified version and distribution of Java.
5. java_install()
   • Installs a Java distribution file into current (or user-specified) project directory.
6. java_env_set()
   • Sets the JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables to a given path in current R session and/or in the .Rprofile file in the project directory.
7. java_env_unset()
   • Remove the JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables from the .Rrpofile file in the project directory (but not in the current R session, please restart the session so that R picks up the system Java).
8. java_list()
   • Lists all or some Java versions linked in the current project (or cached distributions or installations).
9. java_clear()
   • Removes all or some Java versions linked in the current project (or cached distributions or installations).

10 java_valid_versions() * Lists all valid major Java versions that can be downloaded and installed for either current automatically detected OS and CPU architecture or user-specified platform and architecture.

1. use_java()

• Same as java_quick_install(), but in a less intrusive way. Does not copy or link the Java installation folder from cache into the project directory and does not create or edit your .Rprofile file. Only sets requested java in the current R session.

See more details on all the functions in the Reference.

For detailed usage, see the Quick Start Vignette (work in progress).

Currently, rJavaEnv only supports major Java versions such as 8, 11, 15 to 24 and any newer version. The download and install functions ignore the minor version of the Java distribution and just downloads the latest stable subversion of the specified major version. This is done to simplify the process and avoid the need to update the package every time a new minor version of Java is released. For most users this should be sufficient, but this is substandard for full reproducibility.

The main limitation is that if you want to switch to another Java environment, you will most likely have to restart the current R session and set the JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables to the desired Java environment using rJavaEnv::java_env_set(). This cannot be done dynamically within the same R session due to the way Java is initialized in R, particularly with the rJava-dependent packages such as r5r. With packages like opentripplanner, that performs Java calls using command line, you can switch Java environments dynamically within the same R session as much as you want.

Therefore, if you need to use R packages that depend on different Java versions within the same project, you will have to create separate R scripts for each Java environment and run them in separate R sessions. One effective way of doing this is to use the callr package to run R scripts in separate R sessions. Another option is to use the targets package to manage the whole project workflow, which, as a side effect, will lead to all R scripts being run in separate R sessions. To use rJavaEnv with targets, you will need to download and install several Java environments using rJavaEnv::java_download() and rJavaEnv::java_install() and set the relevant path with rJavaEnv::java_env_set() at the beginning of each function that requires a certain Java version.

The future work includes:

• Add support for more Java distributions and versions

• Take care of R CMD javareconf

• Possibly add support for specifying Java version beyond the major version

• Possibly allow downloading several Java distributions in one function call, e.g. different major versions of the same ‘flavour’ or different ‘flavours’ of the same major version

• Possibly add automation to get the Java that is required by specific Java-dependent R packages
