Simple Question about Init Rapidminer

flyfire

Hi everyone.
I'm back for help after sevral days of using Rapidminer in programs. Rapidminer is a great tool, and its interface is simple too!
Here is my question. Where I init Rapidminer in programs, and check the track information in the command window, I find out that rapidminer inits many other components like weka, text mining, pmml, R and so on, which I will not use. Here is the message.

They are not expected to init in my programs in order to reduce the running time.
I tried this, but it didn't work.

System.setProperty("rapidminer.init.weka","false");
RapidMiner.init();

If code like above one can work, please tell all to avoid components like weka, parallel, text, paren, series and web initing. Those initializing information seems comfusing, although doesn't return an error.

May someone so nice to figure out a way for me?

Hi Flywire,
actually we have already encountered the same problem a few weaks ago and with RapidMiner 5.1 there will be a flag that avoids initialization of the Extensions.
By the way: In which programs are you including RapidMiner? Is any new and cool Open Source software coming?

Greetings,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,
I include RapidMiner in a java program which is edited in Eclipse. In my program, there is just RapidMiner interface and some data preprocessing code.
I also wonder that which exactly jar packages should I add in my program if I want to run my program on a computer which doesn't have RapidMiner installed. I find out that rapidminer.jar is attached with many other libs, not just those in the same directory with it. For example, when I use "write pmml" operator, it will come out an error that this operator is unknown, although I have added rapidminer.jar to the object's java build path, and copied all the jar files in the "lib" folder which has rapidminer.jar to my object lib folder. I also looked up the "plugins" folder, but it contained nothing.

This problem is not so clearly explained in the tutorial, so I am a little confused.

Best,
Flyfire.

Hi
I have worked out this problem. The file rapidminer.jar also needs libs in the user profile, just copy this folder .RapidMiner5 to the user profile.

Hi,
yes you will need to include the extension's .jars if you want to use that code. They can be downloaded from source forge together with the source code in the .zip files.

If you are going to publish your program, please make sure that you are publishing your program under a compatible OpenSource license! RapidMiner is entirely published under AGPL3 and so you will need to find a compatible license to that.
Would be cool if you could inform us about your product, as a developer of RapidMiner I'm always interested where our code proves useful

Greetings,
Sebastian

Hi
I am back, after a long time. 8)
It seems that there is a numble of people have paid attention to this topic. I now will give my solution for initializing the needed plugins of rapidminer as a library in programs.
In our user file, there is a folder named ".Rapidminer5" which has a folder named "managed". This "managed" folder stores the plugins and the configure file. Yes, it is the "extensions.xml". It has the following contents.

Alter the "true" to "false" will shut off the init of the corresponding plugins. Have a try, this is the simples way..
