- packages
Either NULL
(the default) to install all packages required
by the project, or a character vector of packages to install. renv
supports a subset of the remotes syntax used for package installation,
e.g:
pkg
: install latest version of pkg
from CRAN.
pkg@version
: install specified version of pkg
from CRAN.
username/repo
: install package from GitHub
bioc::pkg
: install pkg
from Bioconductor.
See https://remotes.r-lib.org/articles/dependencies.html and the examples
below for more details.
renv deviates from the remotes spec in one important way: subdirectories
are separated from the main repository specification with a :
, not /
.
So to install from the subdir
subdirectory of GitHub package
username/repo
you'd use "username/repo:subdir
.
- ...
Unused arguments, reserved for future expansion. If any arguments
are matched to ...
, renv will signal an error.
- lockfile
The path to an renv
lockfile. When set, renv
will retrieve the packages as defined within that lockfile.
If packages
is also non-NULL
, then only those packages will
be retrieved.
- destdir
The directory where packages should be downloaded.
When NULL
(the default), the default internal storage locations
(normally used by e.g. install()
or restore()
) will
be used.
- project
The project directory. If NULL
, then the active project will
be used. If no project is currently active, then the current working
directory is used instead.
