Usage

installGithubPackages(
  lib,
  repos,
  dependencies = TRUE,
  upgrade = "never",
  auth_token = Sys.getenv("GITHUB_PAT")
)

Arguments

lib: path to R library where packages should be installed
repos: vector of relative paths to GitHub repositories containing R packages (e.g. "kwb-r/kwb.utils")
dependencies: passed to remotes::install_github(). TRUE is shorthand for "Depends", "Imports", "LinkingTo" and "Suggests" NA is shorthand for "Depends", "Imports" and "LinkingTo" and is the default. FALSE is shorthand for no dependencies (i.e. just check this package, not its dependencies), (default: TRUE)
upgrade: passed to install_github, (default: "never")
auth_token: GitHub Personal Access token, required with scope "private" if access to non-public R packages is required (default: Sys.getenv("GITHUB_PAT"))

Value

installs multiple GitHub R packages into one R library

Examples

if (FALSE) {
remotes::install_github("kwb-r/pkgmeta") 
pkgs <- pkgmeta::get_github_packages()
paths_list <- list(
  r_version = kwb.packages::getRVersionMajorMinor(),
  lib_linux = "/usr/lib/R/site-library",
  lib_win = "<win_root_dir>/kwbran/<r_version>"
)

paths <- kwb.utils::resolve(paths_list, win_root_dir = tempdir())

pkgs <- pkgmeta::get_github_packages()

installGithubPackages(lib = paths$lib_win, pkgs$full_name)
installGithubPackages(lib = paths$lib_linux, pkgs$full_name)
}
