This is the repository for the tutorial I gave at the OpenMunich 2019.
It showcases how to create packages for R and Python that share a common codebase: core functionality is written in C++, Rcpp is used to create bindings for R, and Boost.Python is used to create bindings for python.
Checkout the releases in this git to see a step-by-step tutorial.
Slides for the talk are available in this repo as well.
Code was tested on Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS 64 Bit, Boost 1.65.1 & R 3.6.1. Since there is no bleeding-edge-functionality used, it should work with earlier versions of Boost and R just as well.
sudo apt install build-essential libboost1.65-all-dev r-base
Rscript --slave --no-save --no-restore-history \
-e 'install.packages(c("Rcpp", "RUnit"), dependencies = T)'
