| # check.packages function: install and load multiple R packages. | |
| # Check to see if packages are installed. Install them if they are not, then load them into the R session. | |
| check.packages <- function(pkg){ | |
| new.pkg <- pkg[!(pkg %in% installed.packages()[, "Package"])] | |
| if (length(new.pkg)) | |
| install.packages(new.pkg, dependencies = TRUE) | |
| sapply(pkg, require, character.only = TRUE) | |
| } | |
| # Usage example | |
| packages<-c("ggplot2", "afex", "ez", "Hmisc", "pander", "plyr") | |
| check.packages(packages) |
Something like this will also work:
#This line of code installs the pacman page if you do not have it installed - if you do, it simply loads the package
if(!require(pacman))install.packages("pacman")
pacman::p_load("dplyr", "DT", "mosaic", "MASS", "usdm", "tidyverse", "ggplot2", "PerformanceAnalytics", "caTools", "glmnet", "caret","leaps","doParallel")
