Get the packages — get.packages • ToolsRTM

This function retrieves the list of R package dependencies for the specified path using renv::dependencies(). If renv is not installed, it installs renv first. THis is designed for getting the packages that the Shiny app needs in this package

Usage

get.packages(path = ".", confirm = TRUE)

Arguments

path: The directory path to check for dependencies. Defaults to the current directory.
confirm: logical. If TRUE (the default) and the session is interactive, ask for confirmation before installing renv or any missing dependency. If FALSE, never install anything; missing packages are only reported, not installed. Per CRAN policy, this function never installs packages in a non-interactive session regardless of confirm.

Value

A character vector of unique package names found in the project dependencies.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Get the packages for the current directory
get.packages()

# Get the packages for a specified path
get.packages("path/to/project")

} # }
