Example 02: R and TidyVerse
- Simon Alexander
Owned by Simon Alexander
Goal: Create an environment using the R language that includes the TidyVerse library.
Note: There is a known vulnerability with R versions less than 4.4.0.
This page uses R version 4.3.1. This page is purely for example since as of the date of creating this page there were issues using an r-base/4.4.1.
I am hoping in a few weeks/months the 4.4.x base will be stable and I’ll update the examples.
General Process
[]$ conda create -n r_env r=4.3.1
[]$ conda activate r_env
(r_env) []$ R --version
R version 4.3.1 (2023-06-16) -- "Beagle Scouts"
...
(r_env) []$ conda search tidyverse
...
(r_env) []$ conda install r-tidyverse=2.0.0
(r_env) []$ R
> library(tidyverse)

## Package Plan ##
environment location: /project/<project-name>/<username>/conda/envs/r_env
added / updated specs:
- r=4.3.1
...Notice we can include the R language package (previously defined in a separate conda install ... in the creation line.
The environment install location has been updated to: environment location: /project/arcc/salexan5/conda/envs/r_env as configured.
