Is it possible (advisable) to use R within Google Cloud Datalab? How?
I made a pull request on Google Datalab. It is just a modification of the original docker file in the folder:
datalab/containers/base/Dockerfile
You can find the modified file here: My Git repository
Or the full code inside the Dockerfile here (below). You need to push the Docker container to the container registry of google. https://cloud.google.com/container-registry/docs/pushing-and-pulling
