Hi! I am trying to test out Metaflow for R, and am running into some installation issues. I’m guessing the issue is related to reticulate and pyenv on an M1 mac — I don’t use reticulate much, but often run into issues when it tries to create venvs etc, so I usually just point it to the appropriate python path within the code. When running
devtools::install_github("Netflix/metaflow", subdir="R")
I’m getting the error in the attached screenshot. Any idea how to get past this? Thanks so much.
I may have fixed it by setting
WORKON_HOME
in my .Rprofile environment variables.
Sys.setenv(WORKON_HOME = "~/.pyenv/versions")
Reticulate didn’t want to use my pyenv virtualenvs for some reason. Feels like a hack though
