similar to: Rprofile.site and automatic installation of missing packages

?Startup says: "Note that when the site and user profile files are sourced only the base package is loaded, so objects in other packages need to be referred to by e.g. utils::dump.frames or after explicitly loading the package concerned." So you need utils::installed.packages and utils::install.packages . Duncan Murdoch On 21/03/2023 8:04 a.m., PIKAL Petr wrote: > Dear all.

I would appreciate some advice on what the preferred contents of RProfile.site vs. .Rprofile should be. A .First() function can reside in either one, but is it preferred to place it in .Rprofile? I currently use .First() in .Rprofile files placed in separate directories used for different RStudio projects. Thank you [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi, I am interested in customizing the installation of R. I have gone through the ?R Installation and Administration? manual. But some of the stuff is not clear to me and I would like to get clarifications on the following points (for a Windows installation with R_HOME=C:\\R\\R-2.9.1 ) : 1. I understand that I need to create a file, .Renviron with the following path : R_HOME\\etc\\.Renviron where

Hi everyone. I have recently installed R 2.14.1 on my 64-bit Windows 7 laptop. I am attempting to include some favourite functions in the Rprofile.site file to run at R start-up as I did with my previous 32-bit XP machine. I have edited the Rprofile.site file in "C:\Program Files\R\R-2.14.1\etc\" but the added code doesn't seem to be executed when I run R, whether through Tinn-R

Not sure whether this is a feature or bug -- but it does not appear to be documented. R1.6.1 on Windows NT 4.00.1381 Objects assigned in the Rprofile.site file (e.g. foo<-'something') are put into package:base not .GlobalEnv on startup. Objects assigned in the .Rprofile file are put into .GlobalEnv. This doesn't seem consistent to me. The objects exist in base only for the

Hello: I've been using "Rprofile.site" for several years to set the repos environment variable as follows: options(repos=c(CRAN='http://cran.cnr.berkeley.edu', CRANextra='http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin') ) However, R 2.15.0 is not recognizing this. Instead, I get the following: options('repos') $repos

I am trying to install custom packages upon starting R. A lot of the code that is written by us right now is available for editing to the users. To try and protect the code, I am packaging the production level code and having the users install it on their machine during start up. However, when I try to install packages in RProfile.site file, the program goes into a loop and R is constantly

Hello All: I'm still unable to get Rprofile.site to set, e.g., options(max.print=222), as I did with previous versions of R. I just found similar questions posed by Trevor Miles and Ross Bowden with replies by Uwe Ligges and Duncan Murdoch. In addition to the things I tried documented below, I also copied Rprofile.site into "R_HOME/etc/i386" and

It seems that my Rprofile.site file is not executed when I start R. To test this I included the following code in that file: .First <- function(){ cat("\nWelcome at", date(), "\n") flush.console() } When I start R the message above is not displayed. I am running R 2.6.1 (rgui.exe) under Vista Home Premium. The Rprofile.site is in the etc folder and the R_PROFILE

Hi, I installed "circular" package and I wanted to load it automatically when R starts up, so I added the following lines in file Rprofile.site, .First <- function() library(circular) When R starts up, it gives me the following error: ---------- Loading required package: boot Loading required package: graphics Loading required package: stats Error : .onAttach failed in

Dear R-users, I am having some issues with a package I am working on (using R 2.12.1 in a Linux environment) and would like to have your opinions/advises. My package - let's call it mypackage for the purpose of this email - passes all checks of R CMD check, except for the following failure message: Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'mypackage', details: call:

Hi all, i just installed R 2.12.1 and Tinn-R 2.3.7.1. My OS is Windows 7 32bit. Here is my question: Do I have to execute the rprofile.site manually every time I start a R/Tinn-R session? Because it seems that way. Here is the error code I receive after sending "selection(echo=TRUE): source(.trPaths[5], echo=TRUE, max.deparse.length=150) It doesn't do that after I configure

Dear All I inserted a frequently used function (subroutine) right into my Rprofile.site which allows me to run it each time-works great. However, this approach is obviously suitable for a short function or a small number of functions. Instead of inserting the lines in Rprofile.site, is there a way to insert one line pointing to (fetching) the function in a local drive, similar to #include

I am running R version 2.8.1 on Windows XP OS. When I launch R, I would like to automatically read a file containing my database connections, user ids, and passwords into my workspace. I tried including this in my Rprofile.site file: ... local({ old <- getOption("defaultPackages") options(defaultPackages = c(old, "Rcmdr","RODBC", "utils")) }) .First

On Debian/Ubuntu, system wide environment variables and options are set in respectively /etc/R/Renviron.site and /etc/R/Rprofile.site. These files are automatically created when r-base is installed, and do not get overwritten during an upgrade. On Fedora, there is no /etc/R directory. What is the recommended place to define system wide environment variables and options on a Fedora system?

Hi, Apparently R-1.7.0 (and possibly earlier versions too) do not care much about what is in $R_HOME/etc/Rprofile.site when calling 'R CMD check' or 'R CMD build'. This is annoying when having libraries (packages) in alternative locations. Cheers, Laurent

Hi everyone, I want to modify two base R functions 'parse' and 'deparse' immediately after R has started, so I added some code in the file 'Rprofile.site' under the 'etc' directory. Here is a simple example: parse=function(...){ base::parse(...) } I'll get an error when I start R as follows: Error: cannot change value of locked binding for
