To find what packages are installed under a specific version of R you can use the following steps:

Option 1 – Within the R Prompt

  1. Module load the version of R you want to use

  2. Load R with the command 'R'

    1. ip <- as.data.frame(installed.packages()[,c(1,3:4)]) rownames(ip) <- NULL ip <- ip[is.na(ip$Priority),1:2,drop=FALSE] print(ip, row.names=FALSE)

  3. A list of packages will output to the screen

Option 2 – From the Filesystem

We have provided a script that runs option 1 from the bash prompt:

rpkg <version> [pkg1] ... [pkgN]

where the version is required (e.g. 3.6.2) and the package list is optional. With no explicit packages, all of the installed packages are printed to the terminal.

If there is an R package that you wish to have installed, please open a request at https://links.asu.edu/kesc-support including the package name and R version.

Requesting Additional R Packages

All users are welcome to install R packages in their home directories. If a user wishes to have an R package widely installed on the Aloe supercomputer, a request can be created at https://links.asu.edu/kesc-support. Please specify which R version in your request.
