Note

This page related to an older Teton cluster, but the process of identifying available packages still holds for other clusters.

Overview

ARCC is currently exploring ways to best support R users on Teton across the clusters and across disciplines and the 100s of libraries being used.We

Using

On Teton, we have built a version of R 4 r/r4.0.5-py27 with a selection of common libraries pre-installed.This can be loaded by:

Code Block
[]$ module load gcc/7.3.0 r/4.0.5-py27

[]$ R
R version 4.0.5 (2021-03-31) -- "Shake and Throw"

  Natural language support but running in an English locale

R is a collaborative project with many contributors.
Type 'contributors()' for more information and
'citation()' on how to cite R or R packages in publications.

Type 'demo()' for some demos, 'help()' for on-line help, or
'help.start()' for an HTML browser interface to help.
Type 'q()' to quit R.

Listing Packages

Since this build has > 500 libraries, there are too many to individually list here.

Package CNVRG:

One package that we currently haven’t explicitly installed is CNVRG. Since this is under active development we are waiting until it has a stable version, and then at this point we can look at packaging it with the others.

Requesting a Package to be Included:

We are looking to review the base version of R and list of packages on a semi-regular basis, so if there is a useful package that is being widely used across a group then we can consider adding it to the package list. Please send a request to the arcc-info@uwyo.edu email list. Please be aware that we can not always install a package due to conflicting dependencies issues with other packages and low level system level requirements. In these cases we can look at building a bespoke container for this purposebe aware of conflicting libPaths that you might have installed locally. See the section on our general R Packages/Libraries page for more details.
