I made a small [R helper package](https:\/\/github.com\/hrbrmstr\/rdatainfo) to make it easier to wrap up checking out these files at the command-line (via a `bash` function) but it hit me that it&#8217;d be even easier if there was a way to use the macOS Quick Look feature (hitting `<spacebar>` on a file icon) to see the previews.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, [`QuickLookR`](https:\/\/github.com\/hrbrmstr\/QuickLookR) was born. <\/p>\n<p>You need to [download the ZIP file](https:\/\/github.com\/hrbrmstr\/QuickLookR\/releases\/tag\/v0.1.0), unzip it and save the `QuickLookR.qlgenerator` component into `~\/Library\/QuickLook`. Then `devtools::install_github(&#8216;hrbrmstr\/rdatainfo&#8217;)` in an R session. If you&#8217;ve got R\/Rscript in the standard `\/usr\/local\/bin` location, then you should be able to hit `<spacebar>` on any `.rdata`,  `.rda` or `.rds` file and see a `str()` preview like this:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rud.is\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Blank_Skitch_Document.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"4612\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/rud.is\/b\/2016\/08\/06\/quicklookr-a-macos-quicklook-plugin-for-r-data-files\/blank_skitch_document\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rud.is\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Blank_Skitch_Document.png?fit=1624%2C652&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1624,652\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Blank_Skitch_Document\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rud.is\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Blank_Skitch_Document.png?fit=510%2C205&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/rud.is\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Blank_Skitch_Document.png?w=510&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Blank_Skitch_Document\"  class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4612\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I haven&#8217;t cracked open Xcode in a while and my Objective-C is super-rusty, but this works on my El Capitan MacBook Pro (though I&#8217;m trying to see why some `.rds` files embedded in packages on my system have no previews).<\/p>\n<p>If you have suggestions or issues, please use [github](https:\/\/github.com\/hrbrmstr\/QuickLookR\/issues) to file them.
