TAF (version 4.2.0)

taf.install: TAF Install

Description

Install packages in tar.gz format in local TAF library.

Usage

taf.install(targz = NULL, lib = "boot/library", quiet = FALSE)

Value

No return value, called for side effects.

Arguments

targz

a package filename, vector of filenames, or NULL.

lib

location of local TAF library.

quiet

whether to suppress messages.

Details

If targz = NULL, all packages found in boot/software are installed, as long as they have filenames of the form package_sha.tar.gz containing a 7-character SHA reference code.

The default behavior of taf.install is to install packages in alphabetical order. When the installation order matters because of dependencies, the user can specify a vector of package filenames to install.
