How to write console output to a text file with Rscript, like you can with R CMD BATCH












0















In the past I have used R CMD BATCH to execute R code from the command line on a Linux server. The syntax I used was



R CMD BATCH --no-save --no-restore rcode.r output.txt


The above code writes console output to output.txt which can be monitored as the script is running. Is this also possible with Rscript? I would prefer to use Rscript since I have heard that R CMD BATCH is deprecated.

          Just redirect the output to a file like you would with any other command line output



          Rscript rcode.r > output.txt
