PCRS-R software

PCRS [link: https://mcs.utm.utoronto.ca/~pcrs/pcrs/index.shtml] is a web application built to serve a mix of content (videos and text) and interactive programming exercises. This project uses PCRS to serve online exercises in the R programming language.

If you wish to use PCRS to support a class at your institution, you will need to host it on a local server. Local technical support may be required, as hosting your own server is non-trivial.

A specific release of PCRS is maintained to support deployment of PCRS for R exercises. This release contains the most up-to-date code for supporting R, as well as files to deploy the system using Docker [link:
https://www.docker.com/].

We have tested the installation on a server running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Docker CE (18.03.1-ce). To get PCRS and the Dockerfile for deploying it, use the following commands in the shell:

[verbatim]
$ git clone https://bitbucket.org/utmandrew/pcrs.git
$ cd pcrs
$ git checkout pcrs-r
[/verbatim]

This should create a directory named “pcrs” that contains a Dockerfile that can be used to create a Docker image.

If installation fails on your system, the PCRS website [link:
https://mcs.utm.utoronto.ca/~pcrs/pcrs/index.shtml] contains general instructions for manually installing and deploying the system as well as contact information for the developer team.
