Installing R dependencies

• Load R module

  module load R/4.0.5
  

• to know which R packages are installed, under R :

  ip = as.data.frame(installed.packages()[,c(1,3:4)])
  ip = ip[is.na(ip$Priority),1:2,drop=FALSE]
  ip
  

• Define the directory where you want to store the R packages you want to add. You can add this variable to your .bashrc file.

  export R_LIBS_USER="/homedata/user/R_LIBS"
  

• Launch R interpreter

  R
  

• Install your packages in R interpreter

  install.packages("my_package")
  

Important

Never change the path in the variable R_LIBS because you will lose access to all the packages installed by default.
