Description
Installing, Managing, and Switching Between Distinct Sets of Installed Packages.
Description
Provides an abstraction for managing, installing, and switching between sets of installed R packages. This allows users to maintain multiple package libraries simultaneously, e.g. to maintain strict, package-version-specific reproducibility of many analyses, or work within a development/production release paradigm. Introduces a generalized package installation process which supports multiple repository and non-repository sources and tracks package provenance.
README.md
switchr
An R package for managing, installing into, and seamlessly switching between R package libraries ("software contexts")
To switch to a different library, creating it if necessary, use the switchTo function:
switchTo("mynewlib")
Then work normally, when you wish to switch back to your original library, use switchBack:
switchBack()
