Pre-installed R Packages
The R console, Built-in Apps and Shiny Apps come with a number of the most commonly used data science packages pre-installed. To get the best performance you should only ever install these specific packages manually if they explicitly require a different version to the one that is baked in.
Installing a different version of a pre-baked package
Should you require a specific package version other than what is pre-baked (see the list below), you will need to follow these installation instructions.
First, you need to check which packages are dependent on a package you want to update:
library(tools)
dependsOnPkgs("modelr")
If the package was installed as a dependency of another package, unload the namespace of the parent package first, followed by the package you want to update:
unloadNamespace("tidyverse")
unloadNamespace("modelr")
Next, install the required package version:
devtools::install_version("modelr", "0.1.3")
Then, you can reload the package (the updated package should be loaded first followed by the parent):
library("modelr")
library("tidyverse")
Check the loaded package version:
packageVersion("modelr")
A new package version will be installed in the /home/workspace/files/R/Rversion folder from which the Apps and the R console will pull the updated package version by default.
Unfortunately, there are a couple of pre-installed packages that cannot be unloaded because they are needed for the underlying functionality of the R console (e.g. htmltools). In that case, you can use the system command to run an installation on a fresh R console behind the scenes:
system("Rscript -e \"devtools::install_version('htmltools', '0.5.1.1')\"")
Restart any R sessions or Apps to pull this newly installed package version.
If you encounter any issues installing a different package version to the one that is baked in, then please submit a Service Desk request.
