devtools (version 1.12.0)

install_deps: Install package dependencies if needed.

Description

install_deps is used by install_* to make sure you have all the dependencies for a package. install_dev_deps() is useful if you have a source version of the package and want to be able to develop with it: it installs all dependencies of the package, and it also installs roxygen2.

Usage

install_deps(pkg = ".", dependencies = NA, threads = getOption("Ncpus", 1), repos = getOption("repos"), type = getOption("pkgType"), ..., upgrade = TRUE, quiet = FALSE, force_deps = FALSE)
install_dev_deps(pkg = ".", ...)
