I'm trying to use Ruby's google-finance
API (https://github.com/dblock/google-finance-ruby-client) within an RMarkdown file. However, I keep getting this error when I try to run the ruby code chunk in my Rmd file
C:/Users/user/AppData/Local/Temp/RtmpyAzBuv/chunk-code-16d06afb7ac2.txt:4:in `<main>': undefined local variable or method `google' for main:Object (NameError)
Does anyone know how to successfully load a Ruby package within an RMarkdown file in order to run Ruby commands? Here is my Rmd file
---
title: "Untitled"
output: pdf_document
---
```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)
```
```{ruby}
# Install API
gem install google-finance-ruby-client
# Pull Microsoft stock price
prices = GoogleFinance::History.get('MSFT', start_date: Date.parse('2016-01-03'), end_date: Date.parse('2016-01-10'))
```
