backend_api service exits due to missing dependency

[danielschweigert]

When I start the application with docker compose using

docker-compose --profile all up

the backend-api service exits with the following error message:

showwhy-backend_api-1     |   File "/opt/python/3.9.15/lib/python3.9/site-packages/rpy2/rinterface.py", line 817, in __call__
showwhy-backend_api-1     |     raise embedded.RRuntimeError(_rinterface._geterrmessage())
showwhy-backend_api-1     | rpy2.rinterface_lib.embedded.RRuntimeError: Error in library(synthdid) : there is no package called ‘synthdid’

Hi @danielschweigert, @Brezesky and @efitkov !
Thanks for pointing that out to us, there was a problem with synthdid repository so we forked a fix #421 and updated our code so it's pointing to the right place now.
If you could please try again and let us know,
Thank you!

Dayenne, Thank you for your email and letting me know that you have so kindly looked into this issue with showwhy. I downloaded the updated main and rebuilt showwhy in Docker and am pleased to report that the backend API is working beautifully on my Intel Mac. I had to download the main branch file and then build from that, as when I tried using the clone git command to download showwhy and tried building in Docker from that download it did not seem to reflect the fix for sythdid as a got the same error as before the fix. I hope this makes sense to you. I am not an expert on github and am truly grateful to you and your colleagues for taking up the time to make the software available and fixing any issues. Kind regards, Elena Elena Fitkov-Norris ***@***.***
