CSS only ? which other JS libraries ?

The goal is to, similar to basilik, have a uniform way to declare rix environment dependencies in a package. This is to use rix for more general external dependencies management in packages (not projects) e.g say my package requires bcftools 1.21 that I will acquire through nix

it can be installed from conda or pip, so need to just make sure on of them is installed reliably with rix. My question would be, what would be the recommended pattern for declaring rix environments in packages, should one put the nix derivations in inst/rix or stick to code ?

@josiahparry.com why not build it in this framework github.com/luminal-ai/l... and expose it to R and add an oxidized backend to the R transpiling options in r-xla github.com/r-xla/anvil/...

in this project github.com/sounkou-bioi...

@brodriguesco.bsky.social i guess rix/rixpress already have implicitly something like this, but let it make it more explicit: using rix for package external dependencies declaration along the lines of basilisk in Bioconductor github.com/bioconductor.... I would be very happy to get rid of pixi/pip

rixpress is a R based proposition for so called multilingual pipelines (in reality most of the time why not just wrap what is needed via reticulate or similar for other languages) brodrigues.co/posts/2025-1...

Sometimes one need more control than just letting lexical scoping rule, one reason would be to avoid size effects in caller environment (using `source` with an environment parameter). Other than the more general questions around environment and Namespaces henrikbengtsson.github.io/environments...

If you add to this the terrible docs you can understand the nihilist and p(y)edantic (pun intended) type annotations drive

A significant OpenZL theme is genomic data compression. Users are eager for benchmarks against CRAM, FASTA, FASTQ, SAM, and VCF. It shows promise for tackling large datasets, especially challenging nanopore data. #Genomics 2/5

i ve try it out using uv , it appears that the free threaded python is a significant ABI change github.com/rstudio/reti...

is there some container setup to test reticulate against specific CPython builds (i can see that the libpython is linked against in src) ? Disclosure i am not a (direct) reticulate even though i should become one pretty soon :D
