This repo contains details for the recommended installation of R at Plymouth University.

We use MRAN to install timestamped versions of packages. The current cutoff date is 2018-07-01.

The university image is updated each year over the summer, and a new release made here. If you'd like to request that an additional package be added, file an issue. Please don't include package dependencies in this list unless they are required in their own right (i.e. don't just dump the output of installed_packages()).

Following these instructions will come close to replicating the installation found on the campus-wide Windows installation, and should mitigate any problems you have with your code (or make resolving them easier).

Windows users should follow the instructions at install_windows.md.

OS X users can run the following script from the command line:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlymouthPsychology/installR/master/install-osx.sh | bash

Ubuntu users can run the following script from the command line:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PlymouthPsychology/installR/master/install-ubuntu.sh | bash
