QUESTION: How to report the progress in the logs of docker containers?

[JoseMMerida]

I am not able to see the dumps of the progress in the logs, even when redirecting the output to stderr and stdout. There is a way to use this API to do that, or at least to gather the metrics to upload a front-end or so.

It's not 100% clear what your setup is, but I make a best guess. You're probably running R in batch mode (= non-interactive mode). In that case, you need to set R option progressr.enable to TRUE (defaults to interactive()). You can also set this option via environment variable R_PROGRESSR_ENABLE, cf. Section 'Environment variables that set R options' in https://progressr.futureverse.org/reference/progressr.options.html.

Thanks! I will take a look! :)

Actuallly I am using a function that handles the progress in a future function, due to its heavy cost. I al willing to track how it is doing.
